Totally agree with you about our shocking recruitment-though I'm still reserving judgement on Dike. Have we splashed out on yet another injury prone lump or has he just been exceptionally unlucky picking up that Achilles injury? By all accounts he has demonstrated a good attitude throughout his treatment and is involved with the first team and game preparations. Guess we will only really know more once he is recovered enough to start playing again which will possibly be early December. His previous outings were a bit of a mixed bag and whilst he showed glimpses of what he can do I always thought he didn't look fully recovered from the thigh injury. Certainly needs to do better when he does return (well, I can hope &#128512.
