Suppose that's the benefit of selling Greaves and Jaden early. You don't get any of this when the lad's head is clearly all over the place. It must be really tough knowing it's probably your last appearance and just waiting for the call to say you can move.
A bit foolhardy I’d say. If Wigan really want to cash in on him to fund squad strengthening, one bad challenge or one awkward landing and that’s up the sh***er!
Connolly is a talented footballer. No doubt. We were told he had baggage, but Rosenior thought he was the man to 'sort' him. He's had 2 goes at it with us and shown that he'll always have issues that affect his capability to play sufficient games a season. Personally I think more is made of the Gunn incident than should be. Yes, he cleaned him up good and proper, but more resilient players would likely have been back as soon as the concussion protocols were over imo. There will unfortunately always be something going on with him, be it injury, head not right, personal issues, whatever. And that's why he now finds himself back home in Galway. Shame as he is talented.
On the other hand you get some go the other way like Szmodics yesterday. His move to Ipswich hasn’t gone through (yet?) but he came off the bench and scored plus assisted.
And one of theirs did get clattered soon after Hughes came on and had to go off injured. League One isn’t exactly renowned for not having cloggers.
With Fabio Carvalho probably going to Brentford, I wonder if KLP might fancy a little trip back for a season or 2?
He’d be a great signing but after getting Millar we need a right sided player now. Jarvis showed he’s more than just a squad number today
