Greening is a very good signing. His experience will be valuable whilst at the same time, he isn't past it. I think he will be a massive step up in quality over the out going McKenna. I fully expect our ball retention and pass completion ratio to soar now that McKenna has effectively been replaced with Greening.
Boetang has had a good career but I'm less sure that he will contribute as much. Still time will tell, and I'll be delighted if he can provide some quality.
Let's hope we don't have another Andy Cole/Neil Lennon situation. Role models are great, but they have to have an impact on the pitch with the ball too, otherwise we might as well just employ these players as coaches.
Agreed McFlorist. It's for that reason I have a few doubts about Boetang. I think Greening still have years in the tank though.
