Agreed. What I like about the signings is that they've been announced early, there's still plenty of more players to come who are hopefully of a similar quality, and that they're of a decent calibre, Milos went well with us last time and hopefully won't be our main target, I would enjoy him as a second-string striker, and Manko is very versatile and also went well with Waikato before.
One thing that interested me is Peter Smith talking about his "eye for goal", whether that means he'll be playing up front I'm not sure, personally I think the best way to optimise his talents would be in the midfield somewhere, he's rangy with some nice pace. He could even fill the troublesome wingback role if required.
I thought Cossey was harshly dismissed by the national league side, but I'm enjoying the Peter Smith era so far, he's got a very good eye for talent, I've been in agreement with all of his decisions, a nice squad is building.
