Rashica is the only signing that’s really been up to it

Recruitment might have been pants, but that doesn’t mean onel would have been better.

Easy to judge with hindsight, but most of us thought we’d done reasonable business in the summer.

        Rashica is the only signing that’s really been up to it (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 6, 11:46:05
        
        Your average punter was not qualified to pass judgement on signings I'd suggest most of us (NCFC) - Steven_P_Morrissey, May 6, 18:07:02
        
        For some games, but not reliably enough (yet) (NCFC) - APB, May 6, 12:02:00
        
        Everyone remembers about Dre but we all seem to have forgotten about (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, May 6, 11:42:35
        
        I presume at the time the club believed that Rashica would be an upgrade on Onel and I (NCFC) - The Gaffer, May 6, 11:23:25
        
        the 'we bought him for the future' line appeared a while after we signed him (NCFC) - CWC, May 6, 11:44:05
        
        This is from Bailey’s first Tzolis piece (NCFC) - Henclrikus, May 6, 14:30:19
        
        Ta! (NCFC) - CWC, May 6, 14:46:39
        
        Would be intersting to compare (NCFC) - Henclrikus, May 6, 14:58:53
        
        I think Rashica, after the first few games, has shown himself to be a step up from Onel (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, May 6, 11:19:04
        
        If so, not by much (NCFC) - APB, May 6, 11:58:27
        
        So you genuinely don't think Rashica is an upgrade on Onel? (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, May 6, 11:18:12
