If we had signed Kpakio, Lawlor, J Colwill, Turner, King....

... and they were all experienced League 1 players aged 24-26...

Hypothetically, would people say we'd asssembled a good squad?

So what I'm saying is, the way they've played it seems to me that we actually needed nowhere near the amount of signings that we usually would.

Another 3 or 4 incomings is probably all we need rather than the 10 or so we usually see coming in at the start of a season and the amount so many other teams have brought in.

Kpakio is going to make us a lot of money.

He’s gonna be a good Welsh player.

Lawlor looks like a Rolls Royce of a defender now he's settled and switched sides.with Fish. What a prospect. There will be mistakes and tough days against some bruisers, but I am very impressed.

Joel C reminds me a bit of Rallsy. In your face and stuck in. Be nice to see him oick up a goal or two but very important for the pressing work..
