The new recruits

Post by ChilwellWhite »

Who's the biggest disappointment ? For me it's Grot, really don't rate him I hope he proves me wrong.

Too early to say yet.

Remember Phil Masinga looked better than Lucas to begin with ..

New recruits will always take different lengths of time to settle in, some will make immediate impact (eg, Saiz) while others we may not see the best of until their 2nd season.
Of course there may be some that some that never make the grade.

Think its only fair to be patient with all initially and not write anyone off too early.

Best Recruit - Saiz (by a country mile).

Worst (harsh word that) - Grot (hopefully significant improvement to come).
When you retire, you switch bosses - from the one that hired you, to the one that married you.

I agree its too early to make a real judgement. Saiz obviously be the best, and I must admit I expected more from Klich.

Honestly I didn’t think much of Grot (and still doesn’t), so no disapointment there. So far I’m hugely disapointed with Klich, I thought he was a midfielder of Bundesliga level... Hopefully he will settle in and become a regular.

Think one of the main problems is there are so many new faces & possibly players are trying too hard to get on the team sheet. Saiz undoubtedly is the stand out player & have to agree Grot, well he looks disinterested at times & a bit lazy but as others have said the team needs time to gel & then let's see.

Apart from the Burnley cup game Grot has only been appearing as a substitute for 10-15 minutes at the end of games, so it's very difficult for him to make any kind of impact.
