There is no replacement for a manager who has been there and done it, SB from the start has gone and got what was needed with as little fuss as possible, shame about Austin as I believe he would have added something to our team, but rightfully we pulled the plug due to the failed medical. I watched an interview with Holloway after yesterdays thumping against Crawley and thought thank god we are further on then he is at CP. I think despite what SB is saying then we are probably looking at a couple more to come in before the window closes, I too think a strong midfield influence is needed, but as far as creativity is concerned, then I believe once we have Aluko playing 90 mins fit and well, with Graham and the two wing backs putting in the delivery we will cause teams a problem. Pilacios would fit the bill for the ball playing strong midfielder, beyond him I`m not sure of who and what is available. The lad at Forrest seems to have a good rep, but haven`t seen him play so can`t comment. But i would suspect that SB may be keeping an eye on what comes available up front just to add to what we`ve got.
