For Shrewsbury!

Really? Lennie as a League 1 striker? OK in the Conference, Maybe in L2 but as a L1 striker?

He's a hustle-and-bustle merchant who is there to create space for the other attacking players whilst nicking a goal or two along the way.

Whether he'll be good enough at that sort of a job for League One, especially after a long lay-off, is probably doubtful to say the least. And that's coming from somebody who defended him because I thought he did a good job for us.

He has his merits and Hurst likes him. Expect Shrews fans will be checking his scoring record and not being too impressed.

I was getting excited, I thought he'd re-signed for us.

I must say I always half expected this from the moment they appointed Hurst.

When used right, he was a very effective player, and hurst has got the best out of him before, so he could do it again.

He's had a terrible injury and a lot depends on how he recovers. He is a player whose game needs top fitness.  Anything is possible. Andrew recovered from his injury OK.  Lewis was never the quickest though and if he's lost any pace at all he won't achieve much in L1.

Playing at least one league above his level in L1 and coming back from a shocking ACL injury this signing looks a massive risk to me. I hope Shrews fans aren't expecting too much next season if this is the calibre of their recruits. Hurst makes me laugh - no imagination at all.
