Sibdane Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Interesting to see Mason's name listed. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Huge for the reggae boyZ, some nice players there (for Jamaica) and they have Leon Bailey. Smart move for most of these English lads as they’ll likely not get a sniff so at least they’ll be able to play international ball.

Romey 1878 Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Think Mason should hold off, unless he feels a special affinity to his Jamaican roots of course. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I think out of all those listed he is the closest to receiving a call-up from England. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He makes a lot of mistakes but think his versatility possibly gives him the edge over Keane or Mina to stay. I do think we’ll look for another centre back to replace Keane/Mina (or both) who will partner Godfrey. What works in Holgate’s favour is the fact that he looks better than Keane (in my opinion) in a back 3 and I think Carlo likes that option.

Romey 1878 Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 I don't want to see Holgate and Godfrey as a partnership regularly, if at all to be honest. Yes, Holgate was bad but Godfrey wasn't far behind him either. Bailey, duncanmckenzieismagic and StevO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say versatility, do you mean his equally as good at making mistakes in every position he plays?

We didn't look comfortable doing either of those things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't look comfortable doing either of those things. It didn't work in the slightest. Both players are young and still learning the position ffs, so need a more experienced player alongside them. Not to mention Holgate is an idiot and thinks he's far better than he actually is, and has actually looked terrible in the majority of games he's played this season. Some of Ancelotti's decision-making is baffling. Bailey, Matt and Wiggytop 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed it for you, Villa we’re banking on him doing one of his clever turns and catching him out, which is exactly what happened. I do think that he’s better than he has been when he stops the clever tricks and plays it simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 He did a needless pirouette as last man after his mistake........ I'd have subbed him immediately for that. A pure "the mistake doesn't arse me in the slightest" moment. He is doing the shit that Pickford did and has hopefully grown out of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people spoke about lads coming through but if we get 2 injuries at CB I don't think we have adequate cover. However I'm not saying I particularly like Holgate as a player.
