Black Sheep Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Thomasson won't play much after January if the club brings in a couple of decent midfielders in this window. He has 'potential' and he's not a bad player but there are lots of players with similar attributes who don't make it, for me he needs a League 2 loan to prove himself & toughen up a bit. I will be very surprised however if he has a career at BWFC in League 1 or higher if we are lucky in a few years time. Same with Brockbank & young Senior.

You have to give young players like Senior and Thomason time to develop before writing them off. They are both improving all the time and their attitude and commitment deserves a lot of credit.

Site Supporter RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted January 3, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted January 3, 2022 I thought Senior handled himself pretty well at Rotherham given the circumstances, can't say I see anything in Brockbank though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ani Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Right back would not have been my priority if Jones is nearly back. Senior was targeted and exposed on Saturday. Their right winger also had John pretty easily a few times. Can we just sign a midfield bastard please ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he continues to write players off, as Thomason is proving him wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brockbank & Senior aren't good enough, national league at best. Thomason, lads doing very well, got a good range of passing but lacks a bit of pace. As a younger player, he still has time to become good enough. And even if he turns out not to be for us, then a bit of development should yield some money from a lower placed team. We have to become sustainable remember, which means selling players at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course having cover is good but think we have gaps to fill first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On there it says he signed a long term deal there in the summer 🤷♂️ I read ".... he signed a new contract at Fulham lasting until the summer of 2023 last year" on a Fulham page.

Moderators Casino Posted January 3, 2022 Moderators Share Posted January 3, 2022 The more ball we have, the less we need a destroyer Which i think will be evatts view A proper centre back is a must for me, especially if johnston is now seen as midfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id happily have a faye One of my favourites of the allardyce era Im just saying that if i was betting an internet tenner, it wouldnt be on us signing a fairly limited tackling machine If he can find one who can pass like mj, that a different matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanu Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 MJ is a bit of both he gets stuck in & he can play too but he does have a lot of work to get through on his own he's the entire glue. Lee & Sheehan as good as they don't like the midfield battles, Thomason does & gets stuck in but still learning. An experienced shithouse to pair with MJ in a double pivot would be a good option, bringing a 10 in is paramount in my eyes though... can't be having Del filling in their to touch the ball 7 times in 90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a big job when he came in and mistakes have been made with transfers. IE is getting more right than wrong though and after next Summer I believe we will be top six material in this league.

We do need cover for Jones though and whilst other positions are more urgent this should allow IE to bring him back gently rather than risk playing him too much straight away.

Whitesince63 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 He also stated they would be young but I’d rather one at least is experienced, preferably a CH to guide and mentor Rico who has missed the Gilks effect this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
