Has a very respectable record although is 27 now and I'd struggle to see him as more than a very decent League One/Two player.

Likewise. Although he's got 20 and 19 in his last two seasons in League Two, is tall, reasonably quick and coming into his prime. League One is probably his limit but then I never thought Waghorn would come here and score 16 goals!

I really hope the gap between league 1 and the Championship isn't being underestimated

More about the player than the gap. Steve Morison seemed to be fine making the jump. So did Lee Gregory. So did Scott Hogan. But Sam Parkin didn't. All banging them in at League One.

Yeah it's a concern. All about catching players while they are still on an upward curve I think. Edwards, although 25, counts as that; anyone much older and it starts to become a question.

Exactly that. Webster was 21 when he signed, I reckon. Similarly Cresswell was 22yrs old. Edwards at 25 is at the top end of where we'd want to be in terms of L1 or L2 players, IMO. They've then got sell-on potential which is our modus operandi according to the owner.

If we're going after 27-28yr old players, I'd rather they had a couple of hundred Champ games under their belt.

Look at Waghorn's history. Looks good in a small spell early on at Leicester in League One, few loan spells, looked okay for Wigan in League One and then moved to Rangers at 25. 27 goals in 57 games there, then came to us. Absolutely no sign of him scoring 45 goals in 3 seasons for Rangers and us when he was a 25 year old at Wigan!

Which is probably why we'll cash-in for £7m as he won't do it again!

Manager’s is correct. The criterion belongs to the manager.

There aren’t two managers.

This wouldn't surprise me, he's decent in the air, strong and not slow - would hold the ball up and bring others in.
