Goals and assists I'd have thought - both got half a dozen goals for other teams and hourihane got more assists than anyone last season, almost all before he joined us

And if he continues not to then he's gonna be in trouble. But I'm not making that judgment after 3 weeks of pre season.
I'd have preferred to have seen Tshibola given a chance as cover for Jedinak but welcome anyway and good luck.

Someone who can beat a man and get to the by line would be good.

Three at the back of Terry, Samba and Chester with Jedinak and Whelan in front of them.Dynamic.
His strategy is seemingly fill out the squad with seasoned aging pro's as they need little coaching and hope that the experience rubs off on a few of the others.As another poster said a signing as lazy and in ambitious as his brand of football.Yesterday's man using yesterday tacticsIf we make it this year it will be luck rather than judgement
