Thanks.

I put it on another posts.I really like Poole and he is class but I personally think Hancock is more influential there. Retains the ball well and will score more goals. Such a hard one as Hancock can go missing out wide.

I think we might be stronger with JJ and Peers out wide with Hulme and Hancock. I think those 4 work harder. As I keep posting it is so good to have so much quality in-depth.

Based down south so only seen one game but at Sutton Coldfield Poole was the only one who didn't impress

One of the strangest players i have ever seen at alty...i never notice him during a game and then i see he scored again..quite bizarre..

I don't know how we can drop Poole. He's been here a few months and I don't think he's given the ball away yet.

I know,it is crazy to even think I have suggested it but I just feel Hancock would produce more than Poole. Hancock doesn't lose the ball in that position and has one hell of a shot that he uses more than Poole. The issue is Poole can't play on the wing, well he probably could but would beat many players or defend. I just feel Hancock doesn't have any influence out wide. We looked very strong with Peers, JJ, Hancock and Hulme.

Had a good chat with his dad (as I found out) pre-season at Winsford.
He then came on this site, if I recall correctly, but after a few controversial posts in the eyes of some signed off and has not re-appeared on here.
Could be mistaken of course.

He doesn't often pass to an opponent, but he has a tendency to overhit the ball. I'd just about pick Hancock ahead of him.
