I really like him. Just a bit concerned about his injury record and he's probably going to be a big earner. Mixed feelings when we've not got mega money to throw around......

Most improved player last season for me.

Was in and out, knocked on the manager's door for a chat and was told by Evatt what he wanted from him. Went away, worked his bollocks off and deserved his place. Proper commitment, no sulking, just upped his game.

I remember him following promotion- deservedly revelling in his success.

Hope he gets back, but it's some way for him to go.

I rate him but probably just a decent squad player here on in 

Hopefully be part of a Papa Johns winning team next season

Interesting that he didn't pick Liam Gordon. Makes me think the lad is getting a free at the end of the year. 

Definitely

A bit concerned that none of the kids seem to be given an opportunity when injuries happen like this. 

We've had Sadlier thrust into the role, and Jones now, which I don't think overly suits either.

I know it's Wigan and a derby etc, but we've little to play for now, so why not try one?

I'd also consider Thomason for the left wing back role too, rather than someone completely out of position on the wrong side.

Thomasson can pass a ball

He moves like a ship

No way does he cope with somebody running at him

He's not the quickest I'll give you that. He'd be more defensive I think than John in that position, but his passing would help compensate. 

Until he, or someone else is tried, we'll never know. Just can't see the point of wasting someone else being so significantly out of position.
