How many starts Joe? I just find it hard to believe he is the best of the academy etc Ok, let's see how this season pans out. By default he will get more games. This has to be his year to come on or he will need to go.

But you want to build the midfield around Bucko instead.? You're confusing yourself with your argumentative ways.

Christ man, have you forgotten the last 6 months...? Mogadon falling asleep, us losing tonnes of games, Mowbray saying he's not bothered about the table....sounds like party central to me You still are semi backing Mowbray for some reason...😔

Not live, but I saw it yesterday. If VAR was around.. Red card

How many 21 year old midfielders that have about 5 starts in professional football have an entire team built around them.? More tosh from you.

Yeah, Coady and Mings looked average the other night and very slow. It's a worry.

Apparently something like 30% or 20% off all goals in tournaments come from set pieces, perhaps this might be an important weapon with Grealish being able to draw fouls in and around the box.

It's not. Its just based on my previous post saying I don't think he is very good and is lucky to be a pro in my opinion. Chaddy has to come back with extreme opposite. Not sure if it's trolling or not.

I have him down as an attacking midfielder. If I'm wrong fair enough. We've got Bucko in Central Midfield anyway 👍

Where he's played, what he's done...4 goals per season on average....nothing to warrant chasing him until this season. all a bit run of the mill until this manager seems to have got more out of him. Good motivator.

Yeah, I agree.🙄

Mowbray is well involved. Fact

My view is that his level is no more than National League standard. I have 15 years olds that are of that standard. Just my opinion mind.

Oh I do.

Anyway Buckos Boy is running at Uttoxeter right now, I've had a nostalgia bet....11/2 he's a chance.... Started well but died in the important stages of the race....sounds familiar .

Strange really. Take the last season out of the equation and nobody on here would be interested in signing Mowett. His stats are average to say the least. I put it to you that this manager has got a tune out of him where others have managed a bog standard midfielder for the last few years. Mowbray cannot get a tune out of anyone so if I was him I'd stay at Barnsley.

John Coleman incoming.....

Nope. You put it up. I hadn't commented on him until you did. He's a typical academy product. Had the personality wiped out of him on the pitch and in real life it seems. That's standard technique you'd expect of any decent player.

Do you not know him, Mani?

The other guy is so useless it makes Bucko look like hes a decent player. Full of personality that lad...🥺 Seriously, I have better 15 year olds than Bucko.

Ok, I don't think he will. But, a game away from the start and we are always in the same situation. Waiting on injuries does he know his best team....defence looks weak as soon as a bit if pressure is put on it. We should have our first team out now getting used to playing etc...the game on Sunday surely must be close to our starting team.

How many of those will start the first game do you think?

Not to mention Murphys mate...Central midfield. Forgets his name.

Some old boys network out of that club.....fingers in many pies

I heard Spurs were looking at him.
