problem is you usually get what you pay for in football which doesn't bode well for us. it will be very difficult to mount a promotion campaign with these sorts of players we're signing.

So Stuart O'Keefe is better than Gary Medel?
Lee Peltier is better than John Brayford?
Alex Revell is better than Kenwyne Jones?
Robert Huth is better than Bruno Manga?
Scott Malone is better than Fabio?
It's a big no from me on all five.

Malone is better than Fabio as a defender
huth is a proven premier ship player but he hasn't signed yet
Peltier havnt seen him play yet but he could be but you havnt given him a chance yet ?
medal was great but your talking about a world class player that didn't want to play in the championship ,but o keefe could be an awesome signing for us

Fully agree with this. Russell Slade is having all his best players offloaded and has been given the task of rebuilding the squad. I knew as soon as we signed O'Keefe that he's a tenacious midfielder with a great engine and Lawnmower's post confirms that. O'Keefe will give our midfield exactly what we are lacking. Slade gets so much unnecessary stick, but one thing everyone can't deny is Malone and Revell have been 2 cheap signings who have strengthened our squad. I think O'Keefe will be a great signing.
Remember, Slade made 30 free transfers to get Leyton Orient to the League 1 playoff final, an incredible achievement. Anyone watching that game would agree Slade would have taken Leyton Orient up too if it wasn't for Alex Revell. I think the more players Slade brings in, the more character, guts, energy and passion we will see on the pitch and the better our performances will become. Time will tell whether Slade's cheap replacements will be good enough to create a squad capable of challenging for the Premiership in the future, but I'm certain Slade will at least put together a squad of players who will give their all and please the fans.
