Hands up that was me. Didn’t think he was really good enough for league one either, but I was wrong. He’s the one thing that’s been consistent for this team
Is Phillips s possible for Wales? Won't oust Hennessy but who is on bench?
Other than having a last name which is sometimes Welsh is there anything that would qualify him?
Most screwdrivers have a flat blade, so an object can be punted in one direction. However a Phillips screwdriver has four surfaces so a spheroid can go in any direction. Is there anything Welsh in that? He does play with several Welsh internationals, have they got sisters?
Completely admit I was wrong about Dillon. I said his distribution would cost us points, when in fact his shot stopping has stopped us losing more points.
Dillon has impressed me since he started playing in the first team - has always seemed confident and has continued to improve. Distribution is the weakest part of his game but is a lot better than it was.
Gets ven better with experience. This season his distribution has come a LONG way, nobody really mentions it anymore. There will be offers for him, especially if he starts judging when to come for crosses better.
Be interested in how Dillion improves when/if he gets to play behind a better back 4 and midfield, numbers look good as he's been peppered for a couple of months now. I look at Ben Foster when he was on loan at Watford first time, and he was pulling off save after save, and then the next season at United when the number of shots being faced dropped off, he was more prone to a mistake as he wasn't being constantly involved in the game.
As for Butland, reckon that major injury a couple of years ago ended him as a top-level keeper.

Very true , Scott Carson looked a world beater in our relegation year , done very well but that’s cos he had plenty of opportunity to shine .

Wasn’t Dillon Thomas Welsh? ‘Nuff said.
Don't know about Dillon Thomas but Dylan Thomas certainly was Welsh. As was Bob Dylan of course even if his real name is Robert Zimmerman. The nationality of John Thomas on the other hand is not so clearly defined.

Other areas of his game still need some work but there is huge potential there.

Quality stuff, long may it continue.

Think that confirms his Welsh eligibility - Certainly got more claim to be Welsh than some I bet
Beats me why we don’t play Sarr upfront every week in that case....
