seems very odd to me (if signed exclusively as a LB)
You find it odd that we’ve signed a second left back?
Because we’ve only got one?
yes. signing back up or cover in January, when we should be improving the weaker points in the side, while we also have plenty of cover for an inform player who never gets injured is weird. We need a striker, we need a winger. wouldnt mind another in the middle though he wont drop pack so thats unlikely. left back would be just above goalkeeper at the bottom of my list.
How do you know we aren’t trying to sign players in the other positions?
This one might have just been easier and quicker to complete.
i dont, and if so fair enough, but i dont want to hear the excuse of only being able to bring one or two in, and being left short in areas when we sign someone who isnt a priority.
And im not saying we dont need a LB by the way, just that with no money being spent and the potential to only bring in a couple. this doesnt improve us like a good signing up top would do.

Hes decent but I cant see him playing more than a few games. Bennett will stay as number 1

Makes me laugh stuff like this. Benett is by some distance the best lb we've had for a long time
