Was told by a Torquay friend that most defenses never saw him coming.

Gingers do have souls...

Seems like Sunderland fans feel he has some potential and will do well getting more regular first team football. Looks decent from the highlights so hope he can kick on here and do well. 1 year deals work out well for all parties, maybe not if he does really well then leaves for nothing for a bigger contract but if he helps get us to the playoffs like Fox did I won't be complaining. If things don't work out here then both sides have an out with no problems.

I don’t think he’s signed to be a backup if I’m honest, although the one year deal implies that. Torquay fan says he can play off either flank or as a 10. Obviously be deployed on either flank if he’s going to play as Mcatee is pretty much undroppable

As I said on another thread; having 2 or 3 versatile players in the squad is never a bad thing. If he can play anywhere across the front line, then that gives the manager options before and during games.

He looks like he could be an upgrade on sousa with that ability to receive the ball in tight areas and wriggle out of it etc. May have less dribbling ability but hopefully more passing, crossing and shooting ability so his end product is better.

He seems to have been very well thought of at Sunderland and Torquay fans clearly wanted to keep him.

I also suspect he will have not been signed as backup and he has a 1 year deal to show what he can do at this level. Let's hope it works out for both parties!

Looks to have a certain swagger about him and a touch of cockiness. I like that.

my TUFC season ticket holder mate said that he looked a bit lightweight at first, but didn't take long to find his feet and was excellent for them. Played as a sort of wingback but tended to drift central. They were v disappointed when he got injured and had to return to Sunderland

From the showreel, he looks to be a very mobile player which is a quality that Hurst wants.

Any goal abilities will be a bonus - good age and different sets of fans liked his style, so could be a very astute signing.

Hope there has been an option for a 2nd year written in?

If Glennon can be signed as well, and Amos re-signs, the flank could be miles stronger and far more attacking.

Hurst seems to be sorting the attack out which is encouraging.
