People expect a mid table championship side with FFP troubles not to be spending money we apparently don't have on a 5th right back (or 3rd right winger if you prefer). It's really that simple, he's no better than the players we have in his positions and we already have more than enough cover there.

Then again Richards or Bacuna aren't right backs either never mind how many people tell me they areAs far as i can see have two right backs at the club, Hutton (who wouldn't even be classed as a footballer in my books) and Bree. And with any luck Hutton will be out the door soon enough. We also have De Laet of course, but after such a long time out i'm not expecting to see him much this seasonAnd we now have a player that can 'cover' at RB, RWB or RW. All for a million quidSmart business.
Well, I suppose we could wait until after he's actually played a few games for us to say whether it's a good signing and whether he improves the team.
Optimists say he'll be an excellent addition.Pessimists say it's a waste of money.As that amount of money is £1m, I don't think the latter should get too worried. In the mad world of football, it's hardly risk of the century, is it?

He's no better than what we have got
