Had a look at the replies from the bolton twitter announcement regarding Antonee Robinson.
They all seem proper made up and buzzing that he is staying. Bolton have been poor this season and he by all accounts has been a star in their side. Be interesting how the rest of the season plans out for him, could be that left back we desperately need...
He’s worth more than a million quid, but so was Mason Holgate, so it’s swings and roundabouts, hopefully with us putting in a bid, Joe is open to the offer, otherwise why even place the bid, if that’s the case our coaching staff must be doing something right so that’s a positive.
I’m convinced if he wasn’t on loan, he’d be our captain, even at just 21 Year’s of age, he’s always the one our head coach gives information to during stoppages in play, then young Joe passes it on to the rest of the team. Our last big thing was Alfie Mawson, I was surprised EFC didn’t come calling for him last summer. We’ve a few young lads coming through that might step up at some point but nothing concrete as of yet.
@Eggs is a fan of his I believe. Fair play for producing some quality players, especially defensive ones
...i’m chuffed he’s impressing for you. He stood out for me a few seasons ago when our youngsters played Manchester United. I reckon he was only 16 and was up against the Brazilian, Anderson, who was returning from injury. Williams wasn’t the most obvious stand out in terms of ability be he was ultra competitive against a full international. He ran himself into the ground and was substituted with 20mins to go but i’d seen enough.
The lad has suffered with a few injuries so it’s great to see him getting good reports. I suppose Everton have no need to sell at this point but he might well be available in the summer.
Honestly I'd take Williams on our bench right now. At the end of the day it comes down to does the player want and believe he will have a chance to earn playing time with us over the coming years, or does he want to be guaranteed regular first team football right now? There's not right/wrong answer here. From what I've seen, he's easily worth a place in most matchday squads. One only has to look at Beni and Davies to see that there will be opportunities to come in and impress. This has been as much of a good loan move and Galloway's have been bad.
I'm high on him simply because he's like a poor man's Tommy Graveson in the sense that he does all the simple things well, and his attitude and engine is top class. Ability will only take you so far. As Carragher said recently, he wasn't the most talented of the lads he went to Lillehall with as a youngster, but he had the mental toughness and desire to succeed, and others more talented didn't. I wish Davies had a bit more Joe Williams and Jonjoe Kenny in him tbh.
Both @Eggs and myself like the look of Mawson. Reminds me a bit of John Terry. @NIGHTMARE how is he for pace? He looks very good in everything but hard to tell if he could play in a high defensive line as Swansea are so deep every game.
Graveson was an attacking player though? Don't you mean Carsley lol (that old joke!)...
Sounds like Williams is quite similar to McCarthy?
