I think it is a very good signing, but it does create a dilemma with Lewington. With his decent top-flight experience, there's no way Stoke or Tymon would agree to him dropping down to a league one relegation battle unless he was guaranteed games. Does that leave Lewie as understudy after his MOM return? Lewie could switch to CB, but already have left-footed Cisse there and there's talk of another CB coming in.
Maybe DM's first signing suggests he sees Lewie as a valuable person to have around the club, but maybe more of an understudy?
Given our experiences so far this season, there will be plenty of opportunities for both to play following injuries and suspensions along the back line, and otherwise to alternate when the inevitable fixture congestion occurs.
