CONFIRMED Sam McCallum

[1973Blade]

Others may have been more noticeable today, but McCallum could be pushing Burrows for the position on the left. Another part of the pitch where we have healthy competition.

Thought he was class today, especially going forwards. Would still play Burrows from the start as he's been just as good if not better at LB.

But with the multiple games in quick succession, our 3rd game in a week, we will definitely see McCallum start games.

 

[Harry's Game]

Got springs in his boots too, was beating players much taller than him in the air..

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Good signing

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Very good signing and on a free.

We actually have 3 decent LBs.

 

[wavy-blade]

Didn’t recognize him , had a fantastic game , well done !!

 

[jono_t2000]

Had a very good game.

However I think Burrows has to be starting against Leeds and Boro.

 

[SGBlade]

Good game and nice to know we have depth at left back. McCallum looks like we can trust him if we need him.

Not as calm on the ball or as solid positionally as Burrows though. Burrows final ball is also a cut above. He’ll definitely be back in for the next two games.

 

[Bladesman]

How high can this lad jump? he went up for one header and I thought he was going to fly off into the sky.

 

[Deadly_D'Jaffo]

Another excellent cameo appearance and as usual, wins absolutely every aerial dual.

Great signing Wilder/Hoyland.

That ball to Burrows was a beauty

Does he have springs on his boots? I can't work out how he jumps so high.

 

[Deadly_D'Jaffo]

Does he have springs on his boots? I can't work out how he jumps so high.

On one occasion tonight he ate up a few yards and won a header he had no right to challenge for, let alone win.

In terms of surprise attributes of a player, it's right up there with Harry Maguire on penalties.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

 

[Grizzly blade]

He should perhaps be getting more game time, along with Shackleton.

 

[Iceybabey]

Performs a weird role for the side but these are the players success is built with/on. Your Crainie's, Madines etc

 

[s4-blade]

He should perhaps be getting more game time, along with Shackleton.

Where though? Do you drop burrows or O’hare? Answer is you can’t.

 

[dexter101]

He should perhaps be getting more game time, along with Shackleton.

I think if we take control of games earlier, it's a no brainer to get him on earlier to rest Burrows a bit. I think when it's 1-0, we rely on Burrows too much to take him off

Scientists need to study him.

He could have had a career is basketball as well.

 

[true99blade]

Him and Shackleton are brilliant to bring on. Burrows is irreplaceable for me.

 

[Grizzly blade]

Gilchrist was poor for me tonight, made some tackles which is fair enough but his use of the ball was poor.
Shackleton might struggle with his head mind, but lots of turnover to them came from our right side.

 

[Tarqs]

He should perhaps be getting more game time, along with Shackleton.

If Shackleton gets more gametime, we're in trouble.

 

[Grizzly blade]

Where though? Do you drop burrows or O’hare? Answer is you can’t.

I like Both of them in wide midfield, work hard, quick and decent on the ball.
Rak saki was ineffective tonight, and O Hare needs some rest for me.

 

[metalblade]

I've not taken much interest on how McCallum jumps so high, maybe he does it like Pele use to, a little skip then spring using both legs which is quite difficult to do and get the timing right.

He has rockets on his boots. He is screwed once the FA find out about them.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

There's a lot to like about him. Excellent signing. Will play a big part this season

Salmon McCallum

 

[SouthStandGBlock]

He's like Zebedee - he won a header tonight against a similar sized player by about a foot. I reckon he could out jump Soutter.

 

[Thrice]

Interesting attribute for a full back. Usually the last thing they're good at is headers.

 

[Yoonited]
