Been looking at Barnsleyways - not too many impressed with Williams. Runs about a lot, passes 5 yard balls a lot and shoots from distance a lot but other than that he's dogshit according to their fans

 

Luckily, you have just made that up.

 

He did very well for them, young lad in position that needs maturity.

 

Hard player, well thought of at our place.

 

Hope he goes to Wigan though.

Loves a tackle.

I think they've managed to get his every tackle in from last season in that video.

 

As always videos can flatter to decisive, but the lad looks mobile and reasonably comfortable with the ball. Feisty fucker too.

 

The fact a few clubs were sniffing around can only bode well.

Barnsley offered over £1 million for him in jan.

We were far too reliant on 2 centre mids last year, this lad now means we have 4 options for those 2 positions (5 if you include Vela) - should help keep the team fresh and mean we can switch things round depending on form/fitness and opposition.

 

To be fair the same can be said for every position with 2 good options for each. It makes a massive difference to last season where we basically had nothing past the starting 11.

Seems to like the old arm chair tackle.

If O'Neil is on a short term deal then maybe he's one for later.

One good thing about that video was him winning the ball back early, further up the pitch.

Reminded me of some of Gary Speed's work; invaluable in keeping pressure on.

If O'Neill is only a short term deal do we know exactly how short?
