    Josh Wilson-Esbrand has signed - CONFIRMED

    Start him on Saturday please.

    Josh said: “I’m very privileged to be here. I’m happy to get to know the boys and help the team.

    “I’m just looking forward to going out there and trying to push this team as far as we can get.

    “For me, I just want to be as efficient as I can in the final third. I want to play as often as I can, rack up the minutes, rack up the games and as a team, just push as far as possible.”

    Erol Bulut added: "First of all, he comes from a really big team, Manchester City. He’s been on loan at Reims and also in the Championship with Coventry City, where he played in the Play-Offs. I see in him some good offensive actions, positive on the ball and good crosses. As a full-back, a wing-back and a winger, he can add a lot of things.

    “He gives us flexibility, that’s important. I spoke to him about what kind of style we play and where I see him as a player, not only as a left-back, but also as a winger. For Reims, I was watching, he was also playing as a number 8, he did quite well in that position. It’s good that he is flexible.”

    9 games, 1 goal for Reims this season. He’s been involved in a decent standard then recently, not come from Man City’s overflow.

    I’m assuming Man City want him to play so be interesting. Notice Bulut refers to wingbacks.

    Let's hope he's useful on that left side in several positions as we are weak there

    I think he's going to be our starting left-back.
    He's an upgrade on Collins, that's not a dig at our current left-back.
    Collins came back from a serious ACL injury and was immediately thrust into 90+ minutes EVERY game, when he really needed to be eased back in.
    I feel Wilson-Esbrand will start Saturday.

    With that surname it feels like a BOGOF signing.

    I was kinda focusing on the double-barrelled surname and that we got Wilson and Ebrand in a buy-one-get-one-free joke but admittedly it really does need a lot of work before I try it in front of a live audience. Anyway, a Liverpool supporter, North Cardiff Blue and Sludge walk into a bar......
