Who on here can honestly say they would rather have Hoskins than Murray? And Barnes for that matter.
I think it's hard to say at the moment as we haven't seen enough of Hoskins yet. But his attitude is clearly better than Murray's, and Gus clearly rates him higher so that is good enough for me. Don't get me wrong, it's a shame we lost Murray as he is a good player, but I think we have more than adequately replaced him.
I notice you don't mention CMS, have you admitted that you would rather have him than Murray?
