Todd Kane is alright I think. Played and scored against us for Oxford a few years back and was also at Hull with Adkins. Wouldn’t say either of our full backs are good enough so not an unnecessary signing at all.
It would be unnecessary in the sense that we already have 2 experienced right backs, who are on a lot (by league 1 standards) of money and we are limited by how many players we can have.
As I said with CBT if its instead of what we blatantly need it's a problem. If it's as well as, it's not.
Neither of whom are good enough
So why did we try so hard to get Matthews a new contract?
Did I offer it to him?
Are you signing Kane? What we think of them, I happen to think they are the least of our problems, the club seem to think they are OK, don't they?
It’s a football forum. I have a different opinion to you and that’s OK. Move on.
He played no.27 for Oxford back half of last season. He started both play off semi legs against Blackpool. Here are Oxford’s (who play 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 as we know) average player positions from those two games.
I grabbed these off SofaScore if anyone wants to look at his other games. It looks like he worked well in tandem with James Henry (no.17) to support the striker, one goes forward while the other sits in etc.
I would expect Elliot Lee to play the Albie Morgan / Sean Clare role.

Think we might use him instead of Morgan in the number 10 role
Lee is a quality signing, takes the pressure off of Albie a bit and allows him to sit further deep and collect the ball which I think will suit him more

So we went from Todd Kane to Elliott Lee, smug laugh. I do love this thread, definitely what we need.
On the face of it i know Ipswich have signed several players all fighting for a spot, i still prefer our business personally. More measured, yes they might be ahead of us at present but lets see how it plays out. A few more signings come in and settle, i'm quietly optimistic about our chances. We wont storm the league but we will be in the hunt come may.
The guy who posted this also said Kyle Edwards was training with us when he clearly wasn’t and that Henderson had signed. I hope his source is correct but I wouldn’t get my hopes up too much

I guess he has a link to the training ground. His mate might even just be giving gossip to have some space and focus on being our 3rd choice right footed left back.

Yeah but what they really want is Clare back running their midfield.
