We already have Chicksen and Jones to play down the left, he is more attacking than defensive to suggest we could switch to a back 4 with him in it and it’s not like Jones isn’t good enough and needs replacing for another attacking wing back.
He seemed to be more a squad player at Crawley which if that’s the case for us it’s a potentially long contract. We also had the issue of not being physically up to the challenge of league 2 last season but this lad makes Crowley look a giant.
When I’ve seen him play he has looked good on the ball so I’m not saying he is a poor signing just one that is perplexing.
He wasn’t a squad player he played 43 games and over 3000 minutes in the league. If Jones or Nemane get injured are we really happy with Chicksen or Austin playing those postions for a number of games?
I think jones may be played as one of the 10s at times and tbf he will probably challenge Nemane anyway.
