Quote: jonh "If it was a choice of Busquets or Hock it is simple for me. Hock every time.
I don’t understand this clamour to sign a player due to the fact he is big.
We need more than that, Hock provides us with everything we need size nasty raw boned aggressive forward.
If the club are happy to bring Hock back for a season then I would fully support that, they would have the info and discussions behind the scenes. If they can all agree he can come back I’d be in the minority but I’d be very happy.
Bousquets for me is an error machine. Big yes, but lazy and I’ve yet to see him pull up any trees, ever. In the World Cup he was anonymous at best and often poor.
Are there better Props out there than Hock? Yes.
Are they available and wanting to sign for us? Hopefully, if they aren’t however Hock is and he is exactly the type of player we need.'"
Fully agree with this, that fact that we are in for hock (if true) shows the room we have under the cap. I thought we wouldn’t sign anyone this year with everyone tied up and I don’t think anyone else will leave. If we signed hock would I be happy, no but even he would improve our powder puff pack if it’s for one year, but I can’t see this happening.
Did/do we need any major ins no, I personally think the squad we have is one of the best and it’s down to the coaching/staff/training/tactics that’s needed freshening up, major signing was a quality assistant which hasn’t happened, just hope the tactics change and a bit of luck on the injury front we should be good for next year.
