Imagine if we had signed those players, DC & DM would have been slaughtered by the fans
Plus I would put money on it that none of these make their first team unless they have injuries.
Identifying prospects and then getting them over the line are two different things. Two of these guys were signed before the January window because they had no ties to prevent them from being signed.
Plymouth lost their top scorer and the one with the most assists, they need to move fast to replace him, Wright is likely to be that player but he is a distinct step down from Whittaker. We have needs, but as we stand its going to be some signing that goes straight into our first 11. Now if we lose McGuinness that might change.
