[unification]

Another young lad. Barely a minute in anger at professional level, but if his attitude is right (and KR doesn’t accept those that don’t have the right attitude) then he could be a good’un.

Welcome, Marcus.

 

[Ox4Eva]

Long as it's for a full season and not just till Jan he could really be an exciting loan move!

 

[Mystery Yellow]

Delighted with how KR has recruited players with pace in his squad totally different to what pep brought in last season in players like Mowatt once Johnson left & Hall was injured we had nothing in the team (pace wise)

Number 10 or either side of the wing can play then

 

[Yellowblood]

Goid signing if he has the right attitude. We have a good selection of attacking midfielders/no.10 players. We just need to sort the centre forward role. We cannot rely on obika.

 

[Marked Ox]

I wait with interest to see how he goes.

 

[Benox]

Attacking options this year look like they have more pace and quality than last year. Hall, Browne and Whyte look to have the pace, Carruthers & Henry some creative spark, Mackie a workhorse with some quality thrown in, Obika & maybe Smith to lead the line?

Throw in Napa as he develops next season.

Looking pretty strong.

Was this the signing KR was talking about in the OM?

Agreed totally. We need a 20 goal a season striker. Then we will have a chance.

To the statto nerds out there: have we ever been promoted without a 20 goal striker? - Because I'm really not sure it's a mandatory for a successful season (granted it helps - but surely so would a 20+ assist provider)

Welcome to the mighty Yellows Marcus. Hope you enjoy your time here.

We didn't have a 20 goal striker last time we got promoted

In The Championship & League 1 last season there were only 4 players to reach 20 goals and none of them played for promoted teams. So no it’s not mandatory.

Won't be involved at MK on Friday according to Radox.

I'd rather have 4 players reach 10 goals each. Can see that with Obika, Henry, Whyte and Mackie.

Are we heading into transfer panic mode?

 

[brassmonkey]

Like the 'nuts' skill he has on his Twitter feed.

 

[Northstand grandad]

Why do we want a 20 goal striker???, I'd rather have 3 or4 scoring plenty.. if we rely on one person getting the goals we'll be caught outt if he got injured.

 

[Foley]

Are we heading into transfer panic mode?

What because of this signing?

 

[holdsteady]

After Hall came off tonight you could see why we have signed another pacey player, he caused them loads of problems that we couldn’t replicate second half without him.

Not certain about Napa from what I have seen so far, thought Baptise looked far more promising, so don’t think we can rely on him this season.
