LuaLua can beat his man just as well and has an infinitely better final ball, he also now defends. Conway is presumably a better winger than Noone seeing as he kept Noone out the squad last season.
Indeed, selling Noone for what we did was a quality deal, anyone who watches him for half a season or so will quickly realize that whilst he does have good feet, the rest of his game is at best league 1 standard, the idea of him getting starts in the premiership is laughable.
