JS Lower. Look for Oscar Wilde, Peter Ustinov and Alan Bennett. I'm the one in the middle who's popped another rib listening to their repartee. Glad it wasn’t us you were referencing then. Our group of six talk absolute bollocks for 90 mins 😂😂

If he gets picked tomorrow might as well give up. He’s doing absolutely nothing to justify his place. Start Nick Powell all day long, his cameos haven’t been great but what can you do in 8 minutes?!

Not a chance in hell I’m going to make an educated guess and say that I don’t think it’s WHO is a better player, it’s WHO wants to play. I don’t think you have to be an expert in body language.

However I think there was an ulterior motive to impress a certain Christian destined to become a manager at Smallbone’s parent club.

He’s the worst player I’ve ever had the misfortune of watching regularly. He almost makes me miss Joe Allen.

Noticed he's managed to win the ball in very good positions recently.
Obviously eventually let down by his final product by either being too slow (don't know who said it the other day but yes, he's the master of being in the right position half a second late), not knowing who's where, or just being a bit shit.
Why does he keep getting picked? You can only assume that Powell isn't ready to play. Otherwise it's ... mental.

We are basing our whole attack around this idiots that pressing.
It’s absolutely pathetic:

Has it been mentioned why he wasn't even on the bench yesterday?

Is it possible that loan players need the permission of the parent club to play in the cup? I know I've read that before but I'm not sure if it applies to season long loans.

Has it been mentioned why he wasn't even on the bench yesterday? Haven't seen anything - but can't see why any of the 3 parties would want to cancel it? He's playing every minute, Neil must like him and Southampton must be more than pleased with his minutes? He's not going to get anything better, is he? Interesting he was the only fit loanee not involved in the 18, but it does seem like maybe just a breather.

I'm just building my hopes up

Looked like resting/rotation to me. Or the selection-dart keeps hitting a 5 instead of the 20?

I think it should be remembered that Smallbone had only made 15 1st team appearances (how many minutes?) before joining us. Yes he’s lightweight (like Varancic) but he doesn’t hide and is currently playing in a poor side who have collectively been producing below par performances for weeks.
Just for balance.

Just for balance. he's nowhere near as bad as painted on this board that said he's still not good enough for that 'number 10' role if he plays it should be at 8 instead of Baker behind Powell

It's bad enough watching him sling out lazy legs or desperately try to make up the yard he's lost at 10, I'd be watching through my fingers with him any deeper

Rested?
The lad never even breaks into a sweat! He just ambles around the pitch without a care in the world. Awful player.
