The new boy.

For £300,000, I think that goal has started the pay back.

I’ve not seen enough of him technically to say how good on the ball he is or isn’t. But at least he’s hungry and knows he has a great opportunity, and he wants it. It’s refreshing to see.

Your right about hyping him up to early and I would continue to use him from the bench for a few more games as he will be a threat against tiring defences when games begin to open up.

Would normally be in agreement but the other side of the argument is that perhaps we could also try it in reverse and field a team from the start that is more likely to convert chances so that we have a better chance of going into the break ahead rather than playing catch up in the second half and then throwing him on?

Totally agree! We can’t go missing easy chances without a recognised number 9 and Grant is ineffective in this position!
