We did this last year with Lameiras and he showed the good and bad sides of picking up Premier League academy kids. Pros: Excellent technique and vision. Cons: Very lightweight, head drops when he doesn't get the ball and a lack of fight. Yes, they have talent but it seems they lack the mental...

Eastwood remains our worst modern signing for me. £1.2M for 17 goals. Imagine the amount of quality players we could bring in now for that much with a competent manager in charge.

Just listened back and that was actually one of the other presenters talking about Bigi and not Kieran. Must've got them mixed up in my head.

Few more points KC made that I missed out last night: - Aaron Phillips was nowhere near consistent enough. He had three separate chances to make the RB spot his own when Cyrus Christie left, when Jordan Clarke left and when Willis got hurt this year. He didn't take any of them fully and you can...

Summary of what Crowley said: - George Thomas needs more confidence in himself. Has all the talent - Joe Cole called him the most talented player at the club - but needs to believe in himself more and be selfish at times. - Bury are going to have a fire sale this summer. Would have Leon Clarke...

Jamie Devitt is out of contract at Morecambe. Had 7 goals and 15 assists(!) in League Two last year for a team that finished 4th bottom. 25-years-old and he's a winger if my memory serves me correct. Worth a punt?

I'm still disappointed that Josh Windass signed a pre-contract deal with Rangers. Would've been a great pick-up for us.

With the releases being revealed, we can now see what the squad/starting XI looks like for the new season - minus signings etc. GK: RCC RB: Willis CB: Ricketts/New Signing CB: Harries/New Signings LB: Stokes CM: Vincelot CM: Gadzhev RW: Jones AM: Lameiras/New Signing LW: New Signing ST: New...

He's very much in the style of Vincelot - a ball-winning midfielder who looks to break up play and hound opposition players - but with a better physique and more speed. Suffered an ACL injury in October while captaining the Under-21s and has been out since. Expects to be back in August/September.

Is there anything in the fact that Fleck has already been offered a new deal while Ricketts and Tudgay have just entered negotiations? The club already been negotiating with him or is it a case of them putting their best offer on the table straight away and saying "take it or leave it"?

True. Can't be on more than a grand a week. We all like seeing players with a bit of fight and pride for the badge and he has it in droves.

Shocked about Martin - was a Top 5 player for us this year. Interesting that Lawton "will be" offered a new deal, while Fleck, the Kelly-Evans twins and Kyle Spence "have" been offered contracts. Waiting for news about his knee injury? Month-to-month contract?

Finch is down as being under contract on the Club's release

I'd keep Lawton and the twins on for another year as well, no harm in that whatsoever. Lawton didn't get a chance this year because of the ACL injury and the twins are both very versatile and can play anywhere. The three of them together would probably earn less a week than a...
