Yes Hamer looked good from the beginning but he was a far better player by the time he left. I agree Torp was Hamers replacement and has only shown glimpses of quality so far. But still time yet? He needs to be judged at the end of this season. I was very disappointed in Dasilva last...

In recent times I think James made a difference to us too when he came in.

....and finding them is easier said than done. 24 Championship sides are probably looking for that player. The Hamer that left us wasn't the one that joined. But fans want to replace the one that left.

I think you get the best midfielder for your budget. I am not saying overload yourself with attacking midfielders, but you always buy in quality. Coach others maybe, or maybe it means you no longer have to be a counter attacking side. The bottom line is if you set up the same every week and...

But loans cost money.

Don't ask me? I am not the one moaning about it 😂

But Doug doesn't work in every department and can't change everything overnight. However he has stated he is getting some independent analysis done on other parts of the business. Which well maybe the commercial and retail side. Independent expert analysis is a clever move as it makes it...

I was going to say Borrows was close.

But that is why the dynamics of teams are always shifting because you can't get exact replacements and it's hard to even get similar at the right level and within a certain budget. Also sides can't play the same 11 week in week out, so managers have to be far more open minded than fans.

But we did look at the guy from Forest. Also regarding getting another CM we almost had one over the line before Forest poached him. I am a great believer in signing the right player at the right price, rather than just signing a player to say we have signed a player. I am sure there are...

I always wonder what people mean when they say Hamer replacement or any players name with replacement? Do they mean a quality player in their position or do they expect a clone or a replica? I always think you should judge the new player on their abilities rather than compare them directly...

True but it was the right time to let Fadz go.

One of the promising things about Dovin, he seems to know when to bypass the press and pass it to a player nearer the halfway line.

You don't have to be over 30 to be a leader and there are many different ways you can be a leader. We are not short of experienced players.

And EMC needs time to adjust to this level. He isn't going to just come in and rip this league up like some think.

That's about right I think. Torp was a lot better tonight, but was still only ok. Asante worked hard all match and looks a good signing as he gives us a range of options through his versatility.

I didn't realize that, that's a positive them for us regarding him settling in quickly.

And like in several pre season games he comes up with an assist

No he pushed it towards the corner flag not back into the six yard box. His first job is to save the shot which he did and then save the second shot which he did.

Two good doubles saves by Wilson They look the more joined up team.
