I have to admit that i don't get the ZH signing on a number of levels. As far as depth at FB goes we've got the best in the English game in Sam and a kid with huge potential in Escare. After that we've got Sarginson who's previously shown he can play, and play well, in that position. I'd much prefer Sarge at #1 and a quality right centre brought in instead.
My next point might be a bit controversial for some, but is ZH really that good of a player? Don't get me wrong, he's got good defence and a strong running game, but I've never seen him pass well or jump in as a 3rd playmaker. Seeing that's the way we like to play then there seems to be big skillks gap. If we're on the lookout for someone who's defensively strong and has a top notch running game why don't we look to convert one of our 4 outstanding wingers, all of whom are under contract with us?
Firstly I do think Zac is that good of a player, former MOS and now watching Can, it's clear they're missing him I both attack and defence.
The recruitment of Zac is for 2020 at the earliest. Maybe we'll see movement in the FB position before and around then. Possibly Move Sam permanently to 7. Who knows about Escare.
