From Hurst's comments, it seems that he's expecting a bit more attacking intent from Amos this season. I think he's actually a pretty good passer, but he didn't get up on the overlap much last season so we'll have to see if he can improve on this aspect of his game.

Good news, did well from the off and got better as he went on. Likeable lad too, quite infectious that he seems to be having the time of his life.

I thought there was a period, probably just before our return to form in the Spring time where he looked our best attacking outlet with his runs forward.  That seemed to tail off a little bit later in the season and I just put it down to a bit of tiredness from him due the lack of games he played before joining us.

He definitely looks to have it in his locker.  With a full pre-season with us and not arriving midway through the campaign half cooked, quite excited to see what he'll offer.

Good news, seems like a top lad and as a player plenty of potential. Also seems to like a bus trip if memory serves me right.😉

Probably stuck out for a 2 year deal, but was happy to sign for 1 in the end, can easily see that being extended before the end of the season

Love his commitment. Efete, Maher, Waterfall and Amos. Not a bad back 4. Not bad at all.

A couple of ball playing midfielders now and FB cover and we’ll be in a decent place.

i think how Amos develops will be one of the most interesting sub plots of the season.
I have to say i wasn't impressed when i saw him the first couple of times, didn't think his touch was terribly good and his passing was a bit awry
However he's grown on me as he's grown into the role. Some of those tackles in the final were superb, and he looks a lot more confident.
I suspect there's a lot more to come and hope we see that in League 2.

Oh, and that phrase 'infectious enthusiasm' sums him up perfectly - seems to love the place

Amos is another one who it’s easy to forget how young he is. He’s only 22 and has less than 40 senior appearances under his belt; thought he did a cracking job for us last season but he’s still got loads of time to improve.

I hope we’ve got the option of another season on him.

If my memory is on point.
He made an incredible tackle/block at 1-1 in the final (Counter attack) which was almost worth the contract in its own right

Really like Amos. Good player and fully committed and passionate. I’d like to get Smith back too.

I may have misremembered this but I thought Amos got a chance after Crookes picked up an injury? I remember the timing of him joining was very helpful.

There was a game in which we'd gone 2-0 up, and then Amos gave the ball away badly and they scored to make it 2-1. Despite the error he kept his place in the side and hasn't looked back.

Feel a bit for Crookes because I don't remember him doing anything wrong. Seemed an honest pro, never let us down when he played... perhaps Hurst was looking for something more.

Good news.

Squad shaping up nicely.

Wonder if and when we might get a couple of more high calibre signings to whet the appetite?

My thoughts exactly, a quality No9 ( missed one last season) and a good midfielder to replace Fox.

I notice something about Amos when he made a mistake in a game that cost us a goal, I can’t remember which one but as soon as it happened rather than shrinking he tried to get involved and as much ball time as possible
