Lee Williamson Ben Davies
Richard Cresswell Jose Baxter
Ched Evans Michael Higdon*
Kevin McDonald Stefan Scougall**

Stephen McGinn*****
* I've have compared Higdon to Evans as opposed to Cresswell because he is classed as our "main" striker. His attributes are similar to that of Cresswell though.
** I've gone Scougall, just because of potential. McDonald had a great 1st season. His 2nd was crap. I know he would fit nicely into our team now but, we've moved on.
*** McNulty, again because of potential. Clarke was instrumental in his short time hear setting up bags of goals (in a very attack minded side). I have seen him play against us a couple of times for Crawley and he didn't exactly impress like he did when on loan.
**** Gone Reed on potential.
***** McGinn - had nobody to compare him too.
# Murphy is one of the first names on the team sheet now. Quinn is probably the better player (no probably about it thinking about it) but despite them both playing Left Mid offered something totally different. Can't decide.
