I think i might fall in love with Xavier Simons. Looks every bit the player Morley is/was.
Comparisons aren't always fair but Simons does seem to be as close to what we needed as we could have hoped for while also taller, younger and fitter. Early days but very promising. Also maybe one who would be willing to stay long term.
Imagine a world where we had both Simons and Morley! What an option that would be when it comes to rotating players.
Stop it.
And on the flip side, convincing them both to stay!
The difficulty with attracting good players is that everyone worries about them going. Perhaps that's part of the plan.
'No, you can't have Kone...but I've got a midfielder and a defender out the back. Foreign imports hardly used but nice and expensive..'
