It’s interesting that we have become used to this, with our unfortunate managerial turnover, short contracts and amount of movement between leagues in the last decade, that every summer looks like a massive rebuild.
When was the last time (if ever) we went into pre-season with the majority of the squad sorted?
Love that everyone is an expert on BC's attributes when none have us have even seen him play yet...

I think Ben is his man, but - I don’t see Bostock being the man to partner him, though!Close isn’t a similar player to Stock. His best attributes are attacking ones. Maybe RW thinks he convert him to more of a holding player, doubt that’s the plan though, could be wrong.
