Looks like we’ve done our research with this one. Apparently takes an excellent set piece and has a good range of passing. Not sure he’s an out and out DM though?

Sounds great - the sort of signing we should be looking at (oh look, we CAN give praise when it's warranted).
I just hope the transfer fee isn't offset immediately by shipping out Vaughan - you can end the praise in particular for that part of the deal right there if so.

Think this will be a good one. And he's a new player so that's a start.

No idea. On paper he seems like a good signing but I've never heard of him. Neither, I suspect, has anyone jizzing all over the hashtag!
He's not Hope Akpan, Jermaine Anderson or Josh Wright though so he'll do for me.

Getting in lads who are young but have done a bit and shown promise in pro football as opposed to starring in the U23 leagues is a much better approach than buying old stagers winding down and fading or plucking someone from the released list of the glamour clubs. Wood had come up through non league before signing for Leicester for example.
I’d much rather we did this and it didn’t come off than paying big wages for a spent name.
On the way up, highly rated at Wolves and did well for Carlisle in this league all reduce the chances of him being a dud.
One concern though is the deal we’ve done. I’m betting it’s similar to Paudie in that we got him for peanuts or free but the selling club retains a big percentage sell on clause. I’d be interested in the details.

I'll reserve judgement until I've seen him.
Seems promising though

I'll wait and see before making judgements. We bought Joe Riley and look where that ended up. Let's face it can't be any worse than wage stealing Wright and Akpan.

I'm optimistic about him to be honest, if Cooke can show the form he was showing earlier it could be a good partnership

There’s a clip on Twitter of him scoring a cracking free kick. Don’t ever remember seeing him play, so I’m not really sure. I get the feeling him and Cooke in a midfield two might be a bit lightweight, but good when they have the ball. Lacking a bit of experience and I don’t know about “loads” of assists, think he got 3 or 4 last season. Going to have to see him play really.
