Hi All, I know it's early days but what are your impressions on the above two?

I see Coulibaly made the bench, so he can't be too far away, and hopefully he will come good for you.

You probably don't want to hear about Wilson but I'll tell you anyway. He looked world class against Huddersfield with one very nice finish, one fortunate finish and a fluffed penalty, but was a little ineffective against Brentford today.

Have you seen anything from Allsop and Mcquoid that make you think they'll do a good job for you or still unconvinced?

Congratulations on your win today.

i fear mcquoid might have a has to play clause in his contract my personal thoughts are you can have him back doesnt look dangerous and has a habit of killing attacks.

Allsop has been solid, hasn't made any mistakes and reports say he made one outstanding save today. Apart from that it's been pretty quiet for him.

Saw Mcquoid play vs Cardiff, thought his general play looked solid. Held it up well and was very good at protecting the ball and keeping possession, never looked like scoring though.

Quite a few of our fans probably haven't seen them play due to circumstances so you'd probably be better off getting an assessment from someone who has seen them play more than myself.

McQuoid is one of them players that 'with a big target man, he'd score a good number of goals'... but we do not have a target man. Regardless he has been okay.

I doubt he has that clause in his contract

Don't come here asking for a reasoned judgement. They're all shite having barely played.

They've been alright, Allsop should remain number one for the league games unless he drops some clangers and McQuoid works hard but he doesn't really do much with the ball. Hopefully that'll improve but I wouldn't be shocked to see him dropped for Shaun Miller.

Enjoy the world class striker we sold you for peanuts! Thanks but no thanks for Mcwank, like Silence says he ruins our own attacks and looks as dangerous as a strawberry cornetto!

I think he was quoting the op who said Wilson looks world class

Come back after about six games. I'll give an opinion then.

Only seen them once, McQuoid hasn't impressed so far, but it is early days so not going to write him off, and at the end of the day, he isn't our player. I thought Allsop was good yesterday, he made one fantastic save and seemed solid, though didn't seem too commanding from corners. Again, early days.

Allsopp is a good shot stopper. But seems suspect when it comes to crosses or anything that's not coming at him! Still, he's young and will learn in sure.

I like McQuoid. I think he offers us more than Tudgay (well so far anyway, although Tudgay was Ill still yesterday). I think he holds it up well, but has to drop too deep to get the ball. Strikes me as a player who we need to play it on the floor to, and in front of him. But he's having to spend too much time facing our own goal and tracking back to get the ball, resulting in him being too deep on the field to get anywhere near the goal. I rate him even if others don't
