Andone. I think he has a lot to offer and in a more attacking team, we could see some great things from him.

One thing I've realised from my Championship Manager days is if you have the right tactics then most signings are an improvement and you can topple some very good sides just by playing football.
Often a side in trouble will change manager and their is normally an instant boost in squad morale and performances so we could see several names push themselves into contention

Considering we're going to attack a hell of a lot more than we're used to, it could end up being BOOM or BUST depending on how the players cope! Either way I guess we'll see a lot more entertaining matches, which was the whole point of the change right?

Can you imagine us attacking LESS?

Andone for me.

I can see a decent player in there. Reminds me a bit of Shane Long. Niggly worker of a player . He's made a decent career in the prem proving it isn't all about goals / games stats

AJ has to progress as there isn't a backwards.

Looks like we'll get some new tactics/formations to freshen us up and (hopefully) wrong foot the opposition.

As for players I'll pick just one: Solly March (if Potter does to Solly what he did to Daniel James) he'll be a £50m player in 12 months.

IMHO Andone, Locadia, Propper Bissouma March and possibly later in the season Molumby will all thrive but cant see much game time for Knockaert. Kayal Hemed and Murray only from the bench.

Still too early to call. But given he’s into psychology and is GP, I still think we’ll settle on THE DOCTOR

Need more than the Doctor to increase the pace and technique of some players.

I think CH had Solly March and Bong underachieving, but most players CH had playing at their optimum. Just not that good!

Andone Needs to work on his discipline. Too easily wound up and bit stupid with responses. Apart from that, I like him a lot.

How ANYONE thinks Locadia will come good I have no idea. The bloke has very little technical ability, although he does have a thunderous shot which I like very much.

He might be able to do the music for one of Potters plays for the community.

Because he has good movement in and around the box. Not that that's a quality we've liked to use as a team. After all, it took us 2-3 months to realise how to use Izzy 18 months ago.

And not that I necessarily think Locadia'll come good. But there's something there that could be brought out by a manager with a different playing style.

Can you get a pace injection?

EXactly, he will never be a fast as James, but March has an extra burner, he just doesn't use it. Secondly, he gets shepherded onto his weaker right foot, another opportunity for improvement, and thirdly Solly March could improve on his weaker right foot!

Locadia is the Albion/Dutch equivalent of Romelu Lukaku

Who is going in Goal if Ryan is only playing a few games.
