Haven't seen him play, but he's a right back. Does anyone know whether he's an offensive right back i.e likely to play as the right wing back in a 3-5-2 rather than the right sided CB of the 3?
He is definately more of an attacking wing back than a defensive fullback.

Can see him playing the Byrne role when we play 4-4-2, 4-5-1, def an attack minded player.

Big strong and pretty fast and still only 25, never lived up to the early hype in his career when he was at Villa where they thought he would go on to become a good centre forward. Not a high goal scorer but leads the line similar to Obika. Make or break point in his career, he obviously has/had talent now it is down to Williams to get it out of him. (if he does sign)

Awful goal scoring record according to Wiki, albeit at a higher level. Although the same could be said of Ranger. I take it Delfouneso's more of a target man?

Lots of talent but lacks a bit of commitment to the cause and is a little lazy (Blackpool/Blackburn/Bury forums opinions of him)

He must have something about him to get all the games he has.
Are we actually signing him though, or was Tails making it up?

Darnell Furlong's a strange one. Out and out RWB. Really hope its for cover only (unless he turns out the be the next Cafu), would be disappointed to see Barry's development stunted in favour of a loanee.

Voted QPR MoM against us on Wednesday on their forum. He has come to get game time so I think he will be starting matches at Barrys expense.

I thought their best player was the number 23, he was the only one I really noticed.
