Once Haygarth gets used to the league he will be brilliant for us. CCC replacement right there.
No Linney last night though??
Hopefully Linney just wasn't available for whatever reason, he definitely starts over Nuttall - although I can see what Nuttall gives us that we haven't had.
I agree on Reddin I think he could be a shrewd pickup - I didn't realise he's a former FA Youth Cup winner with Aston Villa so he has considerable pedigree.
Says he can play right wing or wing back, might be looking at things too simplistically but it might be a case of taking one of either him or Justin Donawa, who we haven't really seen yet - I suppose it would then come down to who the management feel has the best ceiling of potential.
I didn't really see too much of the other Stoke lad, Kershaw - although I know he'd had a good write-up in the other games.
The only one I thought struggled a bit was Owen German, sadly - made one or two decisions not to press the ball when he should have done, and was uncomfortable on the ball once or twice too - although he did settle down into the game a bit more. I'm guessing the plan might be for another loan spell for the first few months.
Actually the triallist left back (Sotona I assume) looked a bit rough too - one pretty rash tackle but I think he'd done well previously too?
I thought Joel Bailey defended well, Tylor Golden was fairly quiet but showed his quality with a few nice touch and goes, and I can see what people mean about Lucas Weaver - very unorthodox and pacy, he's going to cause defenders some real issues I think.
