00:00Definitely. I mean, Conor Barrett's another one that we'll also be hoping will be another
00:04gem who will be unveiled. And yeah, I mean, jealous has made a great impression with firstly
00:11his performance on Saturday was fantastic. I mean, one thing which is clear is he's not
00:17afraid to get stuck in, which I find really refreshing to watch. And I think he's going
00:22to be, it's going to be an exciting development with him. There's possibly a rawness about him.
00:30But that innocence is going to create someone who is going to be exciting to watch and isn't
00:36going to be afraid to chug a challenge. And his driving runs as well going forward are really
00:41powerful and will hopefully serve as an outlet to Walsall. And I mean, last night to, well,
00:49I mean, his first EFL start on Saturday and then comes off the bench last night and it looked like
00:58he was in his natural habitat, really. I mean, the coolness and calmness in that situation to
01:04slot the ball into the far corner and such pressurising circumstances shows as well that
01:10he's got that composure in front of goal. And hopefully he can chip in with a few of those.
01:14But yeah, I mean, in terms of investing for a non-league, of course, I mean, I guess Albert
01:19Odoma is kind of that marquee sign and really a big name, obviously 36. But last night he showed
01:25another one that he's clearly not lost that touch of magic just yet. So really silky touches.
01:33But players like Gellis will also be crucial. I mean, even looking at Ronan Mair, I mean,
01:39you know, I know he's come through the academy, but his spell in the National League North with
01:43Russia Olympic will hopefully have kind of rejuvenated him and possibly, well, it clearly
01:49has because he's in the first team plans, raised his chances of getting in the first team.
