    .... if he’s better than Nicky law then I’m happy with the signing.

    Isn't this the lad that we wanted in the summer, but he decided he wanted to try and break into the Man Utd first team?

    Can’t blame him for wanting to stick around an elite club and grab the occasional selfie with the likes of pogba.

    Really hope he can become a big player for us. Get off too a good start with getting stuck in and be the player I thought Reeves was going to be for us.

    Also it gives me a bit of confidence about next season too if we can sign K Dennis then that will edge me into the ‘ok we might not go down now’

    Hopefully we can get a good manager in to brig the best out of joe riley

    We've been after him for at least the last 3 transfer windows, Jan 17 he ended up going to Sheffield Utd, Summer 18 & Jan 18 we went for him on loan but he wanted to try and break into the Man Utd 1st team. Seems from his interview than in January deep down he knew the dream was up but wanted to give it one last try knowing that we were interested and he would most likely get an offer from us if it didn't happen.

    As you say, it’s getting boring now and not helped by your really long reply.

    Firstly, I’m not the one getting so stressed (blood pressure) that I wrote an essay to enforce my point. I’m calm mate, but thanks for your concern.

    Secondly, and I appreciate you probably wrote this in jest, but this is exactly what I am concerned about. It’s okay to build him up, but usually the same people are the first to turn when the player doesn’t hit the heights expected.

    We’ve signed someone and hopefully he can come and hit the ground running as he will know he needs to impress the fans

    Hopefully he can be a great replacement for Nicky law

    The understanding is he's to replace McMahon, not Law.

    No one can replace Nicky Law. He was class


    ...

    Doesn’t joe Riley play left back, full back and centre mid?

    McMahon played right back/right mid
