So another Crock signed by City

Saadi out injured for the next few weeks.

Can anyone else see that he'll be another Velikonja or Guerra, and won't see much playing time, if any.

What is wrong with the Club?

Give him a chance, he lacks experience but his scoring record last year was very good.

I'd give him a chance, but what is the point of signing a player who has just, supposedly recovered from a career threatening injury, then say he's still injured and out for several more weeks, then send a perfectly fit one, Doyle out on loan. Doesn't make sense to me.

I do half agree. Seemed like a strange signing at the time - even stranger now.

Also, it's good to be back! :SunTannedEmoticon:

At the time Saadi was signed, Slade said that he wouldn't be at full fitness for some time and I presume that he wasn't injured at that point.  

There is a recall clause in Doyle's loan agreement, so we can get him in back, if needed. In the meantime, at least, he will be getting playing time at Preston, which he wouldn't at City.
