jofanon Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 One of the bright spots preseason Give him a chance in the first team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oztoffee Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'd be happy to see him out here at the Mariners, but I don't think it would help him. I was made up when we joined with the Mariners, thought we could see some benefit for both sides. But I fear McAleny would not only miss the bus being out here, he'd be painting himself into a small corner. The ideal age for a player to come out here would be 19/20/21 max. At 23 McAleny should already be on a track to somewhere. By the time he gets back to Blighty he'll be 24 having played last season down under............kiss of death, if you ask me. He'd honestly be better off at a Champ. or even league 1 outfit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'd really be scratching my head if we sent him all the way to Australia. I think it'd show that the management don't think he'll make it at PL level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Have to admit he does look like he's got something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) conor is a decent little player but he's not at our level and won't ever be sadly. I agree with you, I've said it for a while, but I hoped to be wrong. Edited August 19, 2015 by Romey 1878 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 If he's going there on loan it's just a chance for him to stay in the game and make a career for himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 He's been at the club since he was 11. Could turn out to be a late bloomer. It's not often we keep youngsters beyond 20 if they are t going to make it. I really liked the look of him in pre-season Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should definitely be given some opportunities in the league. Similar to how we used Vaughan when he was here.... Just see how he gets on.

StevO Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I think he's been here so long due to injuries. I think they've always given him the chance to recover and show what we can do. I just don't think he will here. markjazzbassist and Romey 1878 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rusty747 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 This is a make or break season for him I think. Give him a run in the Cups and a few 15 minute sub appearances in the league to see how he goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeQuince Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Scored a good goal. It was a tough angle and he made a perfect choice for the finish. On another note, I like the composure Holgate has. He's impressed for me. (I've only seen the 2nd half. Not sure if he was at fault for any of their goals) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeQuince Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 He gave the pen away for their first Well, good for him to get himself together afterwards then. He made several excellent clearances and used the ball really well in the 2nd half. Looks a player! I also liked the look of Robinson. Gethin Jones can put in a good cross, but is a bit awkward on the dribble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put it this way one was denied on him after being dragged to the floor. Looks very classy, composed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll never get a penalty decision to go his way as long as he's in a blue shirt! Quinn31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

efc1111 Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Yep, he recovered well from the pen and I thought got stronger as the game went on. A good debut, especially when he's probably still getting to know everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
