    As for the others:-

    Midfielder Jack Cork--great buy.
    Jonathan Walters--not so good from what I've seen.
    Charlie Taylor--good
    Phil Bardsley -good
    goalkeeper Adam Legzdins-good
    Chris Wood--from the little we have seen very good.

    Should there have been more buys, especially with so many going out on loan (the latest being Anderson), yes.

    Better and keener observers than me would be desperately sorry not to have got a center-back and at least another midfielder.

    Time, injuries, loss of form, niggling complaints and suspensions will tell the story.

    We have a full four months to evaluate and then top up the squad if necessary.

    I would have loved Sam Clucas to replace Boyd and I think we should have stuck at it but Hey Ho!

    We should have bought a centre back premiership proven ( though the catch 22 is a good one would cost a chunk of money and or a chancer is exactly that a chance at premiership level).

    We should also have bought a good wide man with pace , to feed the front men ---- I still believe Vokes would get more goals with balls delivered with him running onto them instead of with his back to goal, looking at Woods previously he thrived on that type of delivery - hence why I think we missed a trick.
