I don't know whether they are injured but neither O'Connor or Boyle are even making the match day squad at Fleetwood/Doncaster

Shame really. After showing some promise, Boyle seems to have gone downhill.

Although O’Connor seems hugely out of his depth, we must remember he’s still young.

Imo both are good enough to form a decent career in the English game, just not with us unfortunately.

Not sure about Boyle but O’Connor is fit and available.

Boyle was injured but was expected back for the last game. Maybe it came too soon for him. Hopefully he’ll be back for their next game.

Boyle is back this sat for Doncaster and fleetwood have a new manager now so bit early to judge these 2 players. Neil seems to have his finger on the pulse & I think Horgan has something different to offer. Of the 3 lads who played for Ireland Horgan seemed to be the one who had most impact.
 
O’Connor was subbed at half-time by Rosler in his last appearance, and is not making the squads under Sheridan and playing for the reserves. He will end up back in the LOI soon IMHO.

Boyle could probably stay in England but L2 or possibly L1 at the very best.

We haven’t really replaced Hugill as yet. I’ve no idea how much he’s worth, but I wouldn’t mind us trying to sign Ollie McBurnie from Swansea, currently on loan at Barnsley. I don’t know if it’s a realistic shout or not, but if we can’t afford to buy him , maybe a loan would be the answer.

By the looks of how we’re getting on at the moment, we don’t need a direct replacement.

8M richer. Best bit of business we’ve done in decades.
 
Moult could come good but we definitely need someone who is good enough to step into the team whenever Maguire is unavailable or we want to play two up top.

I still have a feeling that once Moult gets a goal he will get more fairly quickly.

How have you come to that conclusion, Ernest?

That is simply an old football cliche.

Moult looks neat and tidy outside of the box but he doesn’t look like a ruthless no.9 to me.

Yes it is but the brief video clips I have seen of him do show a player who can finish. All we can do is wait to see what happens when he does get on the scoresheet and hopefully gets that infusion of confidence that he is probably lacking a bit at the moment.

Has he had a clear cut chance yet?

Granted, he’s barely been on the pitch, but I just don’t get the feeling that he’s going to get a bagful as soon as he gets his first. Interesting to see what happens with him to be honest - I can’t imagine he’d have joined us if he knew he was going to play second fiddle to Robinson and then Maguire.

There was a semi-chance with a header in a game at our place - I can't remember which one - but otherwise not really.

I can't remember him even having a shot of any sort. Still far far far to early to judge or write him off just yet.

He’s had one shot at Villa which was difficult yet on target.

Will start judging him when he starts getting chances, like I started judging Hugill when he kept missing them.
