Hound Yiadom, Swift and Meite on frees were exceptional signings tbh
Yiadom was an excellent signing. Swift needs a decent run without injury. Hopefully he’ll kick on this season. Meite just not sure.

How are you not sure on Meite as a free transfer? He was free. And his goals kept us up last season. And he was free. Christ, if we had paid a million for him it would be worth it. Just because you might not rate him as a player doesnt mean you shouldnt accept he has been a great value signing. Not only has his value increased dramatically but he is still 23. By no means a finished product and easily saleable for a good price.

Easy tiger - I’m not sure you can say he’s an “exceptional” signing. We’re still paying his wages irrespective of transfer fee. I’d like to see him develop.

I think judging a signings effectiveness based on how much they have developed vs the cost of their wages is almost always going to be limiting. What do we reckon he is on? 10-15k a week? I reckon he has paid that back by keeping us up. As for development he has improved since his first season. Still has room for growth and his success despite numerous managerial and positional changes has been fine imo. Hes not a great player by any means but he is useful enough for this level and the fact it is nearly impossible for us not to make a profit on him if/when we decide to sell makes him "exceptional" as the vast majority of players we sign we dont make a profit on.

Yeah recently signed a new deal off the back of a great end to last season. Will be on a good 15k at least.

Lower West With Pele and Boye returned , and Adams and Mcleary moved on. Midfield/Wide looks very light. Has to be a priority.
