The Most Important Signing This Season

Sat Aug 16, 2014 8:30 pm

On the basis of what I've seen pre-season and games up to today, it has to be Adeyemi.

He was a joy to watch today. Broke up Huddersfield 'a attacking play, strong, athletic, and likes to carry the ball forward when given the chance too.

A real bargain for what looks like a quality player.

Absolutely superb signing, really excited by this one but to be fair I can't criticise any of the business we done this summer.

I'm yet to be convinced by Bergstaller. He seemed to give the ball away a little too easy for my liking. I think Brayford made up for some of his mistakes today.

Can't work out if he's an out and out winger, a striker, or where he should play really. Once Noone/Pilkington are fit I think he'll drop to the bench.

Agree, he looks a top player and just what we need, especially with Mutch leaving although they do play different roles.

As for the other signings, I believe Le Fondre, Pilkington and Dikgacoi will prove to be excellent signings at this level.

Can't say I've seen enough of Guerra or Burgstaller to judge yet, and Morrison, Macheda would not be players that I would go for, definitely. I think we have 3, maybe 4, better CBs than Morrison and I would have kept Mason instead of Macheda.

How on earth did we get him for £1 million???? He looks like a young Tom Huddlestone. Cant see him being with us for long. He's' a real handful and has plenty of skill too. :thumbup:
