Player Suggestion Tommy Watson

[Bladesman]

Looks like he’s available again. I reckon he’s worth a punt on loan.

Could play as a ringer for the women's team

 

[AnstonBlade1]

He’s quick and skillfull we don’t go for that kind of player we just go for slow ageing midfielders

 

[North Shields Blade]

Not for me. He celebrated after scoring that goal at Wembley. Disrespectful.

I'd absolutely have him. He was a terrific outlet down the left for Sunderland when they got promoted. Was the main reason they were the stronger side in the first half of the game at the Lane - it took us subbing Femi on to get to grips with him. Very keen eye for goal too, as evidenced by the winner vs us at Wembley.

The big issue is that Wilder hasn't previously shown any meaningful interest in players of Watson's profile - quick, tricky wide players, who are always keen to take on their marker. It's a type of player he hasn't ever really taken advantage of whilst he's been Blades manager - I can't remember any players he's signed of that mould.

 

[AdamSufc1997]

No thanks not after that play off defeat

 

[Brian Deane]

Can he pass sideways and more importantly backwards That's the top criteria.

 

[SwitchBLADE Smiles]

Was one of the best players in the championship when Sunlan got promoted. No brainer if available - surely people aren’t being serious about not wanting him because he scored against us in the play-offs

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

Chance for him to make amends tho innit

 

[ben1987]

I’m irrationally against this due to extreme and deep mental scarring.

Can’t we get Martyn Woolford and Ricky Holmes back?

 

[CPB]

As long as he apologised for scoring that goal upon signing then thats fine. haha

 

[71Blade]

was a lovely finish to be fair, fit to win the most lucrative game in football. Sliding doors moment 2-0 up VAR .. Sad journey home its the Blades way, in fairness at least Sunderland gave the Prem a go dread to think where we would have ended up??

 

[Blade56]

The fact he showed pashun scoring that goal for a team he’s only on loan with says he’s got what it takes. Not his fault, blame Wilder tactics, donkey Moore’s stupid pass but you can’t blame the lad for doing what he’s paid to do and loves.

I’m worried that some genuinely wouldn’t want him here for the goal.

Quality player. We should be all over it. Giving it a 2/10 chance of happening as it’s hard to think of a player wilder would be interested less in. Tricky winger, takes people on, embarrassed him on his big day etc…

 

[Davalon]

Fits the age profile, gerrimin

It'd be Par for the course if this happened

The exact age, profile and calibre we should be after. For that reason we won’t be.

 

[crucialkneeligaman]

Thanks for mentioning him. Won't happen.

 

[GeorgeDonis1889]

Typical Wilder this. And folk will still defend him.

He's from County Durham - came through Sunderland's academy - hence the passion. It was already agreed he was leaving for Brighton when he scored against us.

Only 2 starts for Millwall, assume because they were already doing well and he was off the back of an injury first half of the season. At 20 though I'm not sure he's the "experience" Wilder is after

For a young lad his name sure sounds like he'd be playing in lower leagues circa 1974!

Bit like when we had "Bob Harris" in the league one years.

Think the host of Old Grey Whistle Test would have done a better job!

Rock on!

I blame Moore more than Tommy Watson.

 

[Booker4]

Id definitely take him but I'd wa t to know why he never played miillwall last season?

We are supposed to be after a left winger also. I'd like to see more of Chong playing left wing mind, I think he could be decent there.

 

[Davalon]

It'd be Par for the course if this happened

He was certainly our bogey man at Wembley last year

 

[Kevincarterversion2.0]

100% the kind of player we need.

 

[andy m]

Saw him play twice for Millwall. Terrible both times.
