The black signing is a strange one, unless at least one of Harris, Jennings or Maynard are on their way out. Funny, because at the q and a I asked mm if he was happy with the creativity in midfield and he did not say 'no'. However, if this deal went through he would have completely reshaped the midfield he inherited from brabin. Perhaps that is understandable with the passing game we have now adopted. However, it is always risky to bring in a couple of players lacking match fitness in the same area of the team. Then again, the rumour may be rubbish.
