    I wanted a big strong CB, well we now have one... good. 6ft 3ins bruiser, not good at passing, good at clobbering oppenents, never did John Terry any harm.

    We did need somebody like this imho... hopefully clean sheets will follow.

    Striker still needed, the winger from Chitty does not count

    Roberts changes the whole dimension and balance of the side.

    Opens up the option of a front 3, 3-5-2 or 5-3-2.

    People underestimate the value of having a left sided attacker.

    Let’s look at the top top sides. Liverpool have Salah, Cith have Foden/Mahrez. PSG have Di María.

    It’s a ****ing game changer having that correct balance, you can switch them so they can go inside or outside, You can move full backs higher up park.

    It’s a huge tool. The fact he’s far, far better than League One just lobs a fat **** off cherry on it.

    Ask him if we can have Dion an arl.

    We kinda need 2 with Alvez away back.

    JD and a centre mid. If we can go into the Champo again and pluck from one of the sides who are in a bit of **** with FFP that'd be lovely, got to be some big horrible CMs that can do the ugly side for us.

    Probably struggling to make much impact this season. Real shame that’s been.

    Batth, eh?

    I'm a bit lukewarm......

    Seriously though, we need leaders on the pitch and he seems to be one.

    Certainly he could be good for the team... but he is not Broadhead's replacement.

    Oh aye. We need a pure forward/striker on top.

    Some little guy who scores rakers against the peasants would be a canny idea, wonder if there’s one of them available…

    Huggins certainly looked a very good player in the brief time that we saw him. Having him and Cirkin bombing down the flanks will add an extra dimension, particularly when we now have a leader in the middle of the back four.

    Delighted with this signing. Nowt flashy but just what we needed.

    You've got to hand it to the recruitment team and KLD.
