Whitfield undoubtedly has talent.

Not a player I would want to see playing against us.

It's the ugly side of the game that needs developing. Tackling, covering, defending...

He has talent.

Key worries:

Worrying lack of stamina

Not quite talented enough to not do the parts of his game you highlight which he doesn't appear to enjoy.

This is his season either to come good or disappear out of full-time football. Currently their are a few odd moments in games and an occasional good 60 minutes. He needs to find ways to consistently influence games even when he isn't matched up with a player he can run rings around. There are less capable players making a living in the lower leagues; although there are equally talented players at places like Kidsgrove. It's obvious what he needs to do, it's up to him to knuckle down to achieve it.

Maybe Whitfield will have learnt his lesson and will come good for us. He could be a good player if he put his mind to it.

Anyone who saw his layoff for Pope against Luton a while ago will recognise he has the skill; he just needs the application.

Which Kennedy is that? 

Kieran - the guy signed from Wrexham. It appears some people appear to be confusing an image of our new centre-half Kieran Kennedy as an image of a trialist

Looks like 6 on trial at training today. That's quite a few. 2 keepers, a right back, midfielder and two forwards/wingers.

Let's hope that 1-2 of them prove their worth.

There was one lad I didn’t recognise who looked like Jofra Archer

Keepers aside, have any of the trialists been identified yet?

UV on twitter reckons Shawn Cummings and Kwane Thomas are two of them. A Leicester youth keeper also and Darlington Keeper Maddison are two others.

Cummings would be a solid signing as right back. 30years old, Played in the Prem and Championship and has been back up in league 1 for the last two season.

Thomas is the Jofra Archer lookalike... 23 years old, 6’4 striker. He was the next big thing at Derby before a move to Coventry and a bad abdominal injury held him back. Has been playing at Solihull Moores and on loan at kidserminster. Hasn’t troubled the score sheet much but let’s see what Askey thinks about how he could be used.

Would be happy if both signed. Right back has good pedigree. The striker would be 4th choice anyway so probably the right kind of signing.
