Player Suggestion Will Smallbone

[Frank the tank]

Watching Leicester vs Southampton we’ve dodged a bullet…

Two if you count manning

Watched them 2-3 times this season and he looks absolutely bang average. Neat and tidy but doesn’t take enough risks in possession and not solid enough to screen the defence. Early days and still chance for him to come good, obviously.

What happened to him being injured for months, ffs....

Southampton have fucked up appointing Martin it seems. You should not concede the number of goals they are with the defenders they have

Manning's been part of that problem. Poor start from him

Agree, why didn't the defenders say"sod this goal kick routine, kick it upfield ",( politely modified)embarrassing to watch

Thought Smallbone was crocked for 6 months?

Indeed. He's been back in the team for weeks though.

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

Watching him for Southampton he looks a bit lightweight not ideal for the giants in the prem.

That was only if he was signing for us.

Scored vs the dirties today.

 

[Bladezz]

Fallen out of favour at Southampton. Seemingly a bench player now.

Would we take him next season?

If they go up, could be a great time to ask the question.

 

[Hamandcheese]

I think it's too early to declare him a bench player

It's interesting how Southampton's dip coincided with him losing his automatic starting role. Maybe opponents wised up and targeted him in particular. Because he seemed to be dictating games

I'm sure we'd take him if available though. I think Wilder would like him. Smallbone / Arblaster / Hamer would be a great midfield

His current team mate Joe Rothwell may be more realistic though, and he's another I think Wilder would like

He's started 15 of their last 20 games. He started, and scored, in their game on Saturday. I'm not sure that makes him a bench player.

Apologies. I’ve only looked twice and saw him on the bench and made the assumption. My bad should have checked before commenting.

Check Darren Smith's comments about Archer's transfer agreement between us and Villa too.

 

[Pintor75]

Wonder how many clubs are looking at our bench players, Norwood, Foderingham, Slimane & Souza with a view to signing them?

 

[Bladezz]

Dare I say he’s back on the bench today for Southampton.

There will certainly be takers for all of them.

 

[Grizzly blade]

Would instantly improve our midfield this season and therefore next.
Sadly, Southampton rarely let players go for peanuts, and u less they go up do t see them letting him go on loan.

Will now be out of our price range.
