    Jalo

    I thought he did very well yesterday and I'd like to take the opportunity to congratulate the lad on his performance yesterday .

    I've previously criticised the lad and thought he was a little over hyped , that's not necessarily the lads fault but more a case of the times we live in with social media and I dare say an uneasy love of celebrity culture .

    Watching him yesterday it occurred to me that coming off the bench isn't his strongest attribute and until he attains more experience it's best to start him in games and develop the lad in that way .

    That doesn't mean he starts every game but more he starts more games than he comes off the bench in .

    He's not an impact substitute and I've judged him wrongly .

    This leads me to believe that if Jalo is to have a very good career and develop in the right way he needs to remain at this club and start league one games .

    The worst career move i can visualise is that he moves to a PL club and gets absolutely lost in that system or gets farmed out on loan here , there and everywhere .

    If someone offers stupid money then I guess it will be taken but none the less I firmly believe at least another year here starting games would be more beneficial to everyone concerned .

    This kid gets 20 league one goals at 19 years of age next season and you'll improve any offer made this summer in my opinion if you add the extras in a John Stones way .


    It just shows we don't always see the game the same way because I've never got the criticism Humphreys gets , I think he's a real asset when he runs at defenders and I also think Watters makes some cracking runs and his pace is also a real asset .

    Funny old game .
