    is that most of his reviews say he's fast and good at going forward but he can't tackle and he's basically useless at defending.

    Don't get me wrong, it's good that we've got someone who can bomb up the wing and make us more of a threat.

    The problem is we need to deal with the opposition wingers. The trend in league one seems to be every team has a little quick skillful winger as we saw against C'Field and Burton. Millwall's number 10 is just like that-he was running rings around Shrewsbury. This Saturday we have to deal with Mark Marshall and we all know who we are up against when Swindon come to town next month!

    I hope I'm wrong but I can see our fullbacks getting ripped to shreds like Dudgeon against Swindon last season.

    All good comments here.

    I'm not sure why that Rangers deal fell through though?

    Wing backs are few and far between so Wabara gives LJ more options of playing 3 at the back. We also need cover for Bree otherwise he'll burn out.

    Fits the bill as a speedy wing-back, who will add attacking impetus, especially when counter-attacking. It is hard to tell from the video clips whether his defensive work is strong, but he seems able to nick the ball well enough from pacy wide players. Final ball looks in need of sharpening up and we will need that at times when we just have one up front. Good signing in my book.

    I just hope he can kick a ball as hard as Dominik Werling.

    I miss the excitement of the build up to a Dominik Werling free-kick.
