Good signing, has games under his belt, 6ft, quick, with some bite to his game.
Seems he can cover CB too in a crisis.
Are we actually finally gonna have a team physical enough to compete and have our fair share of 6 footers to mop up league two direct players!

Might be able to later, here are the best players from last year in Lge 2

EFL League Two · FIFA 17 Ultimate Team Players & Ratings · Futhead

Best player is 74. Dont think we have any close to that. A few 67's.

Gadzhev was our highest on 71, McCann 70.

Jesus, Nicky Hunt is still going! The thing I like the most about the signings is that it looks like we will be hardly touching the loan market. Yes, supplementing the squad with 2 or 3 is not a bad thing, but ultimately loan's are a risk with regards to their motivation and for every Adam Armstrong there seems to be 5 or 6 Dre Wright's or Conor Henderson's etc. Keep it going MR. At this point last season TM was about to cry to juggy about how hard his job is (apparently) what a difference in approach.

Juggy can rest easy this summer and not be burdened with the managers woes!!

It does feel like we're setting out to compete in the league we face for a change. It's been a long time since it's felt this way with players coming in with a good pedigree for each position and no signing looks like there here because it's all we could land. Each look like they will want the shirt at this stage.
Only real question marks are around the front 4 and how that will pan out.
All in all good preparation at this stage.

A few more to go and we're there. I predict 1 maybe 2 by Saturday night to sign.

Good signing IMO. Got some experience at a higher level & still quite young.

Interesting that Matty Miles was suggested on here yesterday from a first time poster and now follows Cov players and SBT's Twitter which makes me think he's signing too. Another right back but without any senior football experience, could just be a cheap gamble for the U23s as they need a right back

Became a fans favourite due to his ability to get in and the oppos box but was at fault for a fair few conceded due to being out of position.

Rather have DKE ahead of this guy.

Apparently can play defensive midfield too. Could be a role for him there.

Still no loanees, which is good, and the backbone of the team and squad on 2 year contracts.

He could be the 20 goal a season right back we've been looking for

Bit of a mixed day for me, obviously just missing out on Messi hurt as he's just signed a new contract today, but we brought in Grimmer, so it all levels out at the end of the day
