Curious what the performance related criteria for buying is. Haven't seen him play, but from what I read it should be a decent addition.
Would you use him already instead of Burn or more as backup?
Aside from his versatility being able to play at other positions.

He’s got to start. I love Dan Burn but he has concrete in his boots and limits the attacking threat. Although I do see it as useful when on the back foot and we almost revert to 3 CBs.

You only need to scour the net for Chelsea comment to see that Hall is very highly rated and a player that a lot of them think will do his development great for joining us for the season.

Only problem being that he's obligated to join us if he hits a certain number of games played.

I would start with this boy. He's seriously good, plus he supports us. Probably one of the better deals so far this window.

A really good signing and can't be underestimated the amount of effort that went into achieving the signature from a club that were doing their ultimate not to do business with us. However I feel gutted that Ollie Harrison has gone the other way. One of our brightest prospects, an England U16 player who looks set to continue this at a senior level.
