  Prisoner, whether I rate Hanson or not is not the issue.
  The point I was making is that Hanson showed promise but could go either way. So there was a fair amount of risk involved in offering a long contract at that time. Wells showed he was the real deal and IMO less of a risk.
  Hope this is a bit clearer for you old boy.

  Wells showed potential, only when more or less forced into action. Up to that point he hasn't been considered 'the real deal' at all and still isn't hence no rush to sign him up for an albatross of a deal.
  
  Your opinion on Wells has been formed on a few months of watching and whilst he did score some very good goals and has done this with less minutes on the pitch than JH his all round contribution is 50% less of that put in by Jimmy.
  
  After a very good first season in pro football JH was rightly offered a decent deal, he struggled in his second year, mainly due to bulking up too much and not being able to carry that weight and size around the pitch as easily, resulting in time out with a bad back and also hamstring injury, both a direct result of bulking up.
  He returned after last summers lay off looking slightly more lean and certainly more hungry and aggressive. His link up play has improved whereby he isn't just flicking on but holding or laying off mainly to the left picking out Reid but due to having Wells running in behind him now we actually have the double threat.
  
  Going forward Wells and Hanson COULD be the next big thing for us but defensively and attacking wise JH gets my nod as our most important forward. Slightly contradictory in highlighting a forwards defensive ability but it is a plus for both us and JH personally, last one we had that worked this well was Lee Mills"
