Edge: looks like a decent tackler, looks solid and level headed. does look a bit awkward with the ball but im sure that will get sorted.
Brown: looks dodgy but could just be down to youth/inexperience.
Kilbane: cant decide if he is good or if he will be bad over the season :S
Elliot+Ball: Will score goals 10 each would be nice. think elliot will do well.
McGoldrick: Looked good last night, ran at players which we dont usually see, had a good first touch, good vision, created space well and was rather pacey. sort of reminds me of King.
Barton: I think he will be immense for us this year. Saw him againsst brum out wide, think he should be in the centre of the midfield breaking the play down and surging forward (yaya toure esque)
Jennings: Id prefer to have Michael Doyle back (should never of let him go!!!!)
Brown: looks dodgy but could just be down to youth/inexperience.

Think it's too early to say yet to be honest CJ, other than Fleck everyone is going to be on a downer at the moment as they just don't seem to want it badly enough

Imo I think Goldie and Fleck are going to be very good players for us
I think Elliott will be a good squad player and be a very good player to bring on as a sub
I think Barton may become a Clingan/Bell type player imo. A player with ability but rarely influences a game
I think Malaga and Edge will become useful players, I would expect one of them to be partnering Wood ahead of Brown very soon

too early to tell really CJ ......... all need to improve both in performance and consistency. All have showed flashes of good things but in general all have been pretty much below par (will exclude Fleck and Mc G from that though as hardly played for us)
have the signings got us a team to power out of this division or even make the play offs - not on what I have seen
The team still needs - pace tempo consistency and good leadership on and off the pitch
