As you know, I love these polls!

Well, after 4 games of the season, who has impressed you the most out of the new signings - and why?

My choice is: Ben Thatcher

Apart from the Villa game, I think he has performed extremely well in that centreback position. He's not the tallest of centrebacks, but he more than makes up for that by his anticipation and aggression. I think once Elliott is back, you will start see the best of Thatcher as the defensive partnership for the Southampton game showed huge promise.

Scimeca comes a close second though - performed competently in that defensive midfiield role and does the simple things well ala Lennon.

I'm bored!

Ben gets my vote. In the game against the Saints he was putting his head where others wouldn't put their boots. he was looking the perfect foil for Matty Elliot. (Pity hes injured ) . I dont blame him for the own goal, impey should have stayed on the post!

Scimeca as he goes some way to replacing what we lost after Lennon (and, in some ways, Savage) left. Not the finished article yet though, I don't think.

Have to be Thatcher, losely followed by Scimeca for the evact same reasons as given above. However, I also think that John Curtis has done very well for us. I think his loss over the coming games will be a big one.
I can't believe that anyone voted for Gillespie :?: Obviously he has the talent and I hope he goes on to show it, but as yet he certainly hasn't. As for Lillian... Dury still out me thinks :?:

Got to be Thatch. I think Curtis has looked very steady as has Scimeca (bollox are you happy to have him gone Marlon, he's class) but Ben gets my vote - 100% effort.
