2018/19 Mason Holgate

[EnglishRoundabout]

So? So it’s not particularly good to be bullied as a centre half! Actually, I’m not a Keane fan, and yes, he was also bullied a couple of times.

 

[Tin-Tin]

I like him, a CB is a difficult one as any mistakes lead to a chance/goal. He will only get better with experience.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

How many times does this lad need to prove that he isnt good enough to be a top 7 or so player.

I'll get slated for saying this as does anyone who dares slate the unholy trinity (DCL, Davies & Holgate) but they are at the age now where they need to start showing quality (like Richarlison) yet they all look championship quality at present.

Should have flogged him to WBA after his loan

 

[Toffeepot]

Holgate might be one of those occasions that the loan system works well for us...he looks confident and sharp, keep

Any chance of a takesy backsey?!

 

[royalbalou]

Literally like watching a pub player today... poor positioning, poor tackling... gone backwards and simply not good enough for us now

Too often the story with quite a few of our young players, promising but some where along the line losing it.

 

[ToffeeTim]

SELLLL

 

[hktoffee]

Gibson should be ahead of him as back-up.

Won’t hear many complaints from me pal, the fact that Lewis Gibson, a lad playing U23 football the last 2-3 seasons has performed so much better than a player with vastly more first team experience speaks volumes

...I suspect that has been the plan for 18 months.

 

[hktoffee]

And let West Brom sign him on perm.

 

[Eggs]

And let West Brom sign him on perm.

....well, I have a view that Silva/Brands send players on loan because they’re not planning to use them. If they’re outstanding, they won’t go on loan, especially players like Holgate with first team experience.

Lots on here think a loan deal is great because players come back better but it rarely happens.

 

[PhilRegan]

But he pushed Firminho and he's got a bit of snide about him this lad just what we need.

 

[Distin's shoulder pads]

It's sad but he's just not good enough

 

[Zatara]

I think if we bring in Gbamin and he can play DM RB and CB we will sell Holgate.
