Really good overall after those shakey gaps in the first half. I definitely prefer Hinsh RB - Webster has looked decent pre season too as has JPVH. Just think we need fullback cover (Turkish guy would be ideal as covers both) and another quality midfielder. Possibly a striker. But overall looking decent.

Hinshelwood is easily our best right back. I hope he can stay fit, especially if we don’t move in the transfer market.

I have been a very vocal fan of Veltman for many years, but - and I hope I’m wrong - he appears in decline and I wonder if his time with us is coming to an end. I still like him in the squad, but it’s a a stage now where I’d place him behind Hinshelwood and Lamptey, never mind any signings we make in that position. It’s useful he can also cover centre back, but being third choice as a senior player is never a great sign.

Terrific day for the new players and returnees.

Minteh. Mom. Utter menace
Ayari. Looks a proper PL midfielder. Let's play him
Sarmiento. Making stuff happen
Wieffer. Looks much fitter

But also

Milner. He'll be starting the season
Baleba. He'll be back up LB until Pervis fit. Very good off his weaker foot and an effective barrier
Welbeck. Prolific in pre season. He's breaking the 10 mark this season. If he stays fit, I'll call it now, he'll get over 15
Hinsh. Assuming no arrivals, will likely arm wrestle that RB spot off Joel
Steele. Not giving me any worries at all. Passing once again, terrific
Barco. Vital player for us now
