    Happy with Cooke coming back one who can definitely spray a pass around and create space for others, as for Sutton think we will find that he will be the nasty player we have missed for a while not afraid to put the boot in when needed.

    It’s all good for the forum. A bit of debate.

    My ideal side would be a new strong DM with Watt and Cooke in front with more license to roam. Then Pritchard maybe left and ask him to come inside like we did with law in McCall’s last spell here, joining up with the front man? that way wood can get down the outside and if we are a bit short at the back, the DM drops in to make up the back four again until wood gets back. We did that a lot before with Vincelot and it’s why I think that position is key.
    sign an attacking right back and you could do that same down that side. it won’t always work and we’d need a plan B or C but if we lose vaughan I can’t see how we play more than one up top

    There was a quote in the T&A from Clarke where he said he was asked to play behind the front men so if he plays a lot it's going to be a midfield diamond I reckon and therefore I can't see us signing any more out and out wingers.

    Watt likes to play from deep, he's not an out and out attacking midfielder.

    Tbh, I’d take a Jim O’Brien. My expectations aren’t that high. Just someone who can tackle would be nice.

    Yes still our player only at Tranmere on loan now back with us, for how long is a different thing, many think with his wages we will let him go, I personally don't think that will happen.

    Listening to him speak tonight I am far happier about his signing now. Very focused on the job he is here to do and on the same wavelength as the manager about his role. Hopefully he will also have the ability to back it up.

    I think Sutton just might surprise a few people.

    One of the best signings in McCall's little black book.
