Pace

But we haven’t got much guile, precision and composure either

Forgot to add...too much pace doesn't normally improve technique...lack of technique was very evident imo in crossing the ball from the wings and shooting at times was appalling. Is the implication from most opinion on here is more pace last season would have got us promoted to Premier?

If we’d have signed James, we’d have p%ssed promotion

Great if pace comes with great quality but we're not in that league financially...and if fans think more pace next season will bring promotion...we'll good luck with that!

Obvious club think so.

Tried signing James and now signed costa, both rapid

Hypothetical I know but do you think had we signed James (paid the money being asked at the time), would we have brought in Costa now? Has Radz financial prudence back in January ended up costing us more money ultimately?

At this time Costa is a level above James, although priced similarly in this window.

Just my opinion not asserting as a fact, to be clear.

Myself would've preferred James to Costa but hey sheet happens.

Costa will prove to be good business.

James might regret moving to that team that plays in red. Timing not good and he's going to struggle to get regular game time.

What I'd do for a modern day Carl Harris and Arthur Graham, tore the wings apart in their day!..
