Wharton looked very comfortable before his injury and we played well with him in the team. Can't say the same about Bucko..we.lose if he starts sadly. Out of his depth. Maybe see if JFH would take Bucko on loan.😅 If Carter is good enough for him he's good enough for me How's Mols getting on? Has he found a club yet after being released by our U23's? You rated him higher than Bucko so he should be rocking up in a Championship clubs first team soon. Keep us updated 🤣 Quote

QPR (H) he started, we won. Rotherham (H) he started, we won. Brentford (A) he did 52 minutes on the field, we drew. Millwall (A) he started, we won. Swansea (H) he started, we drew. Norwich (A) he started, we drew. Birmingham (H) he started, we won. Quote

One just turned 16 actually and will be a scholar at Liverpool. Fine if you think it's bullshit. Let's leave it at that.👍 Quote

I have seen more from him recently than I thought he had in his locker. For a long time he was stinking the joint up when he played and people were clinging to any decent pass like it vindicated everything bad. I would be interested to see how he would be treated under a different manager. I hope he's in the gym this summer working on his strength. It feels like he will be starting next season Edited June 5, 2021 by Bigdoggsteel 3 Quote

Admiral Nelsen Posted June 5, 2021 Posted June 5, 2021 Pleasantly surprised to see rumours that we are looking into taking Elliot back, but taking it with a massive pinch of salt at present. He would probably have the pick of the whole division next year if available, so I doubt that our brownie points with Liverpool would put us at the front of the queue. Quote

I'd be off to Rangers if I were him. Champions League football and I bet Gerrard would take him on loan. He needs a step up from Benno, Bucko and Gally Quote

Not sure if he can hide behind being "shunted around" at all last season. Cairney not only never got a full season centrally, but was also performing at a much higher level than Rothwell ever has despite that. 1 Quote

For me they’ve shown a lot of promise. Anyway your argument was that TM doesn’t like skilful players or know how to use them. The players listed above show that (just like every other manager) he does try to bring skilful players to the club and develop the ones we already have. Case closed 😂 edit... and I forgot to list Dack, probably the most technically gifted player we’ve had since the prem, and a player that TM brought to the club and developed.

The jury is definitely out. And the other one.JRC. You can't say they are established championship players, Edited June 5, 2021 by Sparks Rover Quote

Currently on loan from Arsenal at Coventry. Young, CM, keeps the ball ticking over. Played 29 times this season in the champ before getting injured, now fit but Coventry wont play him as agreement in place that they will pay a fee to take him perm when he hits a certain amount of apperances. Contract expries May 2021. Potential free transfer, young, cheapish wages, championship experience. Room for growth. @JoeH Quote

TheWeasel Posted June 5, 2021 Posted June 5, 2021 On the Rothwell chat, I was absolutely bewildered for the love he got in his first two seasons (still am). However even though he doesn't have great numbers this year, undeniably he's improved and seems more mature in decision making. This season really he has predominantly played box to box, whereas previous seasons we largely saw him out wide or occasionally attacking mid. I think the positional change has done him well, his range of passing has improved, decision making is still not there but it's far better than it was. Box to box midfield play is not strictly around numbers it's about influencing and dictating. Whilst he still was inconsistent the old Rothwell would be useless when not on the ball, now he's matured in his tracking back and tempo. We absolutely should try and extend his stay. 1 Quote

He still has enough IMO to be kept in the squad and my personal belief is a good manager would turn that 1-10 into a far more consistent performer and more complete footballer. The ability is their . I’m not saying he would be the next Tom cairney but he has a lot more to offer than he currently does . Whether it be runs in the team , man management or coaching 1 Quote
