I''d be tempted to play McVeigh again Saturday with Lappin on the left instead of Hoolahan for the same reasons, they both read the game well and both defend. Hoolahan''s wandering alters the teams shape and leaves the full-back exposed. Personally I''d play Wes in the centre behind Holt, which is where he is most effective.Holt is definitely a shrewd piece of business, he looks like another Iwan. He always gives 100%, leads by example and is an extremely clever player. Definitely the best signing of the summer. I''m extremely impressed with Askou, that boy has a hell of a lot of class about him, his heading is phenominal- he directs his headers out as opposed to just going for distance like the Doc, and could quite easily get 10 goals this year from defence, something we haven''t really had since Malky.Hughes looked good Saturday, looks like the box to box centre midfielder we''ve been crying out for since Francis left. I don''t think Tudor-Jones is nearly as people on here are making out, I personally think he was unlucky with the own goal yesterday and shows some promise, he''s always looking for the ball and he can pass a ball too.Not so impressed with Nelson and Gill, Nelson looked slow and unorganised against Colchester and Gill hasnt really done much to impress me at all, looked lost in the middle at times.

Ole 0 Posted August 25, 2009 Holt and Hughes are top quality signings (at this level). Askou can be a good signing, but he still need to adapt.Wiggins was not highly rated by the Palace supporters...Whaley, Gill, Tudor Jones and Nelson are poor, but ok squad players.McVeigh can still play good football at this level for a couple of years, Luton could''t afford to use him last season (he was on pay as you play contract).I wonder why Maric wasn''t included yesterday, I think he should be first choice partner for Holt.Alnwick is at best a League1 keeper. Played good in the Yeovil game, not good yesterday...Yes, I know Theo didn''t have a good game v. Colchester. But why write him off after only one game?He was highly rated in Australia, and I really think he can be a good signing if he will be given a second chance.
