    Id class Connolly as the Byrne replacement and Beasley as the Cook replacement

    Good start on the recruitment front but still a way to go. We still need competition/improvement for Joe Wright, similar for Neufville, two midfielders and a backup for Beesley. I'd also try to offload one at least of Swan and Humphrys.

    Nah... I think they'll both get some game time.

    ;)

    Connolly has been signed to play in midfield. Let’s hope it’s only as back-up and not as a direct replacement for Power.

    For all the good work we’ve done this summer I still can’t work out why we’ve signed an accomplished CB to play as a DM just because he did it 9 years ago.

    Signing a CB to play DM because he played there nearly a decade ago. Having a 17 hour tease for a goalie kit. The kits coming out off the promised time and first being plastered on LinkedIn of all place...... WE ARE SO BACK!!!

    Think the whole squad appears at one time or another, even Nick Powell! Couldn't spot any unknown faces. Looks like Phillips has been given the 8 number and McCracken had 21 on his gear.

    Trafford needs to get out of there. What Pep did to him last summer was poor.

    Rumours Leeds want him but lets hope its Newcastle.

    Although i say that, anyone able to tell who is passing with Swan in the training drill around 3:14 in the video? Might be me having a brain fart. Looks like he has 6 on his shorts.

    Nah Ibbitson is blonde and is doing the passing drill with Pennington about 5/6 seconds later. Swan and someone are passing it infront of GA from 3:13ish for the next 4 or 5 seconds. Cant tell who it is at first, might well be someone from last season and i'm just having a gap

    I think it's Kayden Jackson then.

    No. My bad. I think it's Phillips.

    This lad Tommy Betts will be one to watch in the near future played at U17 for England Sheffield United prospect.

    Yeah i think you are right. There's also a lad with slick back hair in a couple of shots, could be one of the youth team.

    Ibbitson had number 29 last season - think that's who you mean - unless he's swapped for this season?

    Similar look but this lad had blonder slick back hair, Lunn was in the vid a few times with a darker head on him. He looks young, could be another academy lad.

    That's a tough one. My best guess is Lunn with his hair pushed back.
