Love the guy and a great personality.
will have a great career but not with us.

Guess they’re trying to put him in the shop window, to flog him in January.

Oh Eddie Youds...

Should be playing left wing in a front 3 for us.

Need to play our best players & find a way to get both him & Edwards in the team.

Yep we don't have many good players, so not to play him is a clear and obvious mistake.

 Unfortunately loads of mistakes from Jones 
this season.

I wouldn't mind seeing him and Leaburn up top either side of Godden in a front 3. Midfield 3 of Taylor, Coventry and whoever's least shit of Docherty/Anderson/A Campbell, Ramsay and Edwards full backs, Jones and Mitchell centre backs in a 433

Remember there was an article about when he was at Southampton and on loan at Port Vale; "There was unhappiness from Small’s side that he was being used up front after coming on as a substitute. The reasoning given for the positional change was that his physicality and powerful left foot would be favourable in higher, more threatening positions."
