    Haha, but wouldn't it be amusing if we ended up retaining players like Songo'o, Walker, Eisa, Ridehalgh, Angol and Pereira, all Adams' signings? Surely they're among our better players? :p

    His words in an interview when he signed. He was having a meeting with Mr Hughes on Tuesday and taking in a game that evening. Also i believe he went to the Notts county game on Monday.

    His signings. Playing for a better manager, who at least wants to try and win games with a bit of flare.
    Not bore everyone to death.

    Don't forget that Eisa and Pereira never played for Adams though...

    Adams knew a good player when he saw them, However he lacked a strategy on how to play them. He brought them here to play his way, unfortunately for him they didn’t know how to play his way.

    Eisa played half a game at Notts Forest in the cup. He did sign them both though .Pereira with a bit of work on the final ball might be a great player. Eisa we may finally get to see on Saturday. I am hoping he is a s good as Vernham , who i think will move on.

    He's nowhere near as productive as Vernam.

    He's more Billy Knott or.Jake Reeves

    Eisa scored 14 goals in 67 appearances for a shockingly bad Scunthorpe team. That's a ratio of just better than a goal every five games. It's not as good as Vernam this season, who has 8 from 29, but it's pretty decent for a winger and you'd expect him to improve it playing under Hughes in a much better team than Scunny.
