Largely correct - but not sure how Broja can be considered a pass, were paying his wages, not sure but likely paid some fee, he's played about a 100 minutes and managed to come off injured in 2 out of 4 games played once by kicking the floor, by the times he's back the season will be essentially over and he used up a valuable loan spot for domestic which badly restricted us in January.

As hard a fail as you can imagine really.

As for given Harrison a pass, sorry, but what? 90k per week, so close on 5m this season firvan utter pile of tripe.

Beto is definitely TBD as well so far he's been a fail, he's hardly done a thing in a year and a half and we paid 24m for him - continues like he did at the weekend then a different story ofc.

In regards to all 3 if these signings, they've had intricacies which have to be commended.

Pass or fail, the fact we had no money and managed to defer on Beto is commendable. Do I think Beto is decent? At the time I referred to him as a "plodder", I think that's still the case... but play to his strengths (balls he can run on to) and he might pass.

Broja - he's got to be considered a neutral signing. Didn't pay a penny of his wages until he began training. His injury rate speaks for his self and it was a gamble, and one which hasn't worked out (goes into Danjuma territory for me).

Harrison clearly there to fill a void. What seems like he fit the mould of what Dyche wanted, I dont think weve paid a penny for him.

So whilst he's a very poor player, was a body we could afford.

Far from a Thelwell apologist, but for me, i don't think many men could have performed a better job, given the circumstances, and I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss him.
