    We needed a striker.

    We've brought in one of the best in the division stats-wise.

    If he has 20 goal contributions next season it will mean we had another good season, I reckon.

    Was pretty poor for us but seems to have had a good spell at Burton.

    I wonder if this former city player had an influence in who he chose

    Good signing on the face of it. Can't really argue with signing a proven Number 9 this early on. Has to be added to with more attacking quality though.

    Not quite sure why everyone is excited by this had a purple patch this season and one at Rochdale, apart from that its not been much to write about. People have this idea hes a giant but hes only 6 1 isn't he? For me I hope we have a better one lined up and hes good back up or better still part of 2 up top.

    Lower league strikers are only as good as the team around him.. Burton serviced him in a way that's obviously suited him. We need to provide that service and he knows where the net is.

    Good signing if coupled with creative players like Odin Bailey.

    Be a departure from last season, IMO.

    He clearly thrives on crosses. And i think that's a weak area for us - Neufville can cause danger through a bit of chaos and directness, but his crossing is poor. Wright's is better but still not great. I wondet if we're thinking about a formation change.

    A weak area yet apparently we put more crosses into the box than any other team in the league last season.
