Sadly, after a decade or more watching what Jamie Ward brings to a Championship team, I feel I know all about him already - I'll leave it at that for now!
Traore's a strange one, because, after greeting the previous few signings we've made with the words "typical Warnock player", I'm not sure that applies to him - based on what I've seen of him, he's quick, talented, but erratic and prone to make a cock up which costs his team a goal every now and again (e.g. Joe Ralls' goal at the City Ground last season).
