McNair is one hell of an option. Why don't you rate him ?
Click to expand...

He's a good player, I haven't said I don't rate him. But he's had an injury hit year, and since Carrick came in he's not actually been first choice. He will expect a big wage, and he's not what will take the club forward for me. I think experience is needed but not sure the cost compared to benefit is worth it.

McNair had the measure of Gyok in the semi... until he got booked fouling him just before half time. Second half Gyok ran him ragged.

Frees like Browne (POTY at a rival & they want to keep) and McCallum (young, we already know what he's like & they want to keep) make a lot more sense than a guy who has spent half the season out injured and is being released by a rival.

Did you watch that first half at Birmingham?
He was shockingly bad, and got dragged at half time.

Granted, he needs a pre-season and time to settle in and get up to speed, but it's easy to look good when playing against poor teams like Sheffield Wednesday, or coming off the bench against tiring opponents.

He has a good shot on him, and he can pick a pass, but can he cope with the pace and physicality of the championship? For me, I will wait to judge him, hopefully he'll look good when we start the new season.

Yes, I've learnt not to get a hard on when a new player has a good debut.

I think people forget how young he was when he played for us. He was an outstanding prospect at that time. Would be great if we really could get him back.

I think its what makes it such an attractive signing. Take out the fact he played for us, he's got an incredible amount of experience for his age and at 23 still has time to improve further.

Interesting fit on the new shirt. Not sure jeans is a good idea either although a couple of the players looked like they were playing in jeans last season.

Good transition point for chinos next year tbf. Pity that Sheaf probably won’t be here next summer, he’d front the range otherwise.

I've been impressed with McCallum since he left us, and for that final 6 months of the 20/21 season when he came into his own. Would be be very happy with him coming back. I like Bidwell, and unlike many I think Dasilva is a useful squad player, but one of them will need to go.

I'd love to see him play as a AM just behind Simms, that way we get to keep Wright on the left and Sakamoto on the right. Playing a 4-4-1-1 formation. He certainly looks good enough and would offer more of a goal threat than Palmer.

Love how many goals he scores arriving at the far post, Saka crossing in from the other side should have a field day

Don’t half remind me of Haji the way he loves a shot from sorta under his feet at distance and also the little step-overs whilst going the opposite way round players to what you’d expect. I just hope he’s better than our other League 1 signings from last season.

Can’t wait to see him in sky blue.

My only worry is that his best position is clearly LW, like Haji. Posh tried him at 10 last season and it didn’t work so they moved him back to the wing.

I trust MR and AV to work it out but we could have another Sakamoto situation where we try him at a different position for a few months not getting the best out of him.

Somehow, a front four of EMC, Wright, Simms and Saka has to be out best attacking line up.
