He's been gone too long?

Either recall him or don't recall him. 

He was spouting the same thing a couple of weeks back.

be reet if 3 players are ahead of him and not out long term

Iles headline should end with a question mark

Wouldn't lose any sleep if he was to go back. Decent going forward but we are still light in numbers of people who are capable of locking the back door

Oh ... very good.

Cindy Birdsong would be pleased.

I certainly don't want him to go.  Whilst his defensive abilities were shown up at the weekend there were no such issues in the previous 5 games.  We'd be losing a big attacking threat if he were to go.

I'd be sorry if he went but i don't think he's anywhere near good enough for the championship. When their players are all fit , i don't think he'll get any games there.....he'd do better for himself ,staying here & playing & hopefully improving.

Aye. Nathan Jones is a fanny. Pass it on. He’s played well but I’m sure we could replace.

I’ve not seen better going forward in this league, but he has a lot to learn about defending. We would miss him imo.

Sounds like Antonee Robinson, wing backs don’t have to defend to a high standard. 

When Baptiste has been on his game Kioso has been very good. Bad day for Baptiste like last Saturday and Kioso struggles

I think he flatters but does not deliver. 
How many assists does he have ? He is no worse than others we have though.

2 goals and 1 assist from 12 games

Quite like Kioso, but I don't think he's particularly better than Jones, still like to keep him though.

That’s a fair return seeing as we were struggling for his first few games. He does have the odd game where he looks like he couldn’t be arsed, but i think IE would iron that out of him given time.

We'd miss him I think. He is decent going forward  but his defending needs some work We would miss his work and commitment and his goals and assists.

Which ain’t bad tbf we have looked a better team with him playing. 

I'm sure he'd be better defensively if he was simply playing as a full back.

But he's decent going forward and is clearly expected to offer us something down that side.

Can't realistically be great at both at the same time. Guess that Tutte is important for his covering work here.

To give him just one assist is a bit parsimonious really. He has put some great crosses over from runs which haven't been converted.

That diving block against Salford (?) was suberb and while we'd like them all to make blocks like that sadly they don't.

Indeed.  I don't think we can overestimate how important Tutte has been for us.  It's no coincidence we looked so much better defensively when he was playing and how poor we were when he wasn't.

one of our best players, we would massively miss his pace and power going forward

Jones at right back in a four, Kioso ahead of him in another four?
Just need to sort the left hand side out. Could Isgrove play left wing?
