    Never heard of him, but seems to be a winger who scored v Swansea last year while on loan at Stoke.

    Left winger, not going to be short in that position!
    Any more goalies incoming?

    Would he have been at Aston Villa Academy when David Hughes headed it up? Might that be the link?

    I haven’t heard of many of our signings this summer!

    Another winger? Really? Is that where we're short?

    Not a striker. Is Morison about to unveil the revolutionary 0 up top tactic on Saturday?

    Seems to be really highly rated. Looking forward to seeing this lad.

    Just wish we could get a couple of strikers.

    PSG, Barcelona and Dortmund were after him as a kid according to his Wikipedia page - seems to be a talented young kid.

    False number 9 stylee innit!

    Re: New loan signing...

    I think we can possibly see that we won’t be utilising a traditional style striker with this signing? Front three combination with rotation of players and positions?

    Re: New loan signing...

    I was on the fence about whether to get excited about Saturday.

    People moaning, just because he has signed doesn't mean we are not going to sign a striker, it's a long season, good to see competition.

    Welcome Jaden, hope you smash it 👍

    Not moaning here. Very much intrigued by how we are going to utilise these forwards

    Ummmm.... Nobody moaning?
    Think we're all just wondering where the strikers are and rightfully so, we need two.
    I'd happily take Hugill back at this point, at least he gives us something up top. At the moment, we have f@ck all!

    5 subs next season. It does look like we are going for a high press. I expect Morison to make a lot of use of the bench.

    Yep, good point. Lots of pacey options to work against tired defenders.

    But now to make that work we need a decent striker

    We need a physical presence though, and we don't have one. If we're to play 3 up top, we need physical presence to spearhead that 3.
    Watters strikes me as an "off the shoulder" striker, better suited to a 4-4-2 in the way Chops worked off Bothroyd.
    Harris doesn't cut it for me, league 1 material.

    Why do we need a big striker up front though ? If we have three pacy, mobile young forwards up front it will cause havoc with opposition defences. I feel more enthused by us not having a Moore/Hughill figure than if we did. This is going to be fun.

    Depends how the flanks are set up. If they’re instructed to get beyond the fullback then the obvious choice is to cross the ball which you do need a target man in my opinion. Not saying a normal striker won’t work but if we’re as slow getting up the field as we were last year it’s a must.

    Very interested to see how we set up against Norwich

    I hope he’s considered the possibility that the other team may replace them with not so tired defenders.
