    Doesn’t his contract run out at the end of the season?

    Probably found his level. Apart from a couple of decent games early on, he's always been nothing more than on the fringes when he's played.

    Maybe he's found a proper manager to work with him

    I thi k the only thing hes managed to find is a run of games.
    Theres never ever been any doubt in his ability, the only problem he has is staying fit.

    Aye it's just unfortunate for him that he's been out a lot and when he has been available we've had an army of CMs that also need playing. Mumba's having the same problem, I believe he's being tried at RB to see if he can play there, no idea how it's going though.

    I think thats abit harsh to say hes found his level. He featured for us in the Championship and he never looked out his depth. He was particularly good in the last game when we beat Wolves and he was lining up against Neves.
    The lads just unlucky he never had a proper pre season again, and due to the amount of midfielders we have hes been forced to go out on loan to get game time.

    Maybe you're right, I've just not seen anything that shows me he is going to do it for us and at his age now, he should be.

    I think he would have done if injuries hadnt prevented him from doing so. Ross said he would have started our first game of last season against Charlton if he hadnt have been injured. The season was nearly half over by the time he came back which resulted in him having to go to Dundee to get match fit again. This season was meant to be his big chance but he got cursed again.
    Jack likes him. I wouldnt be suprised to see him back in Jan.

    Robson is a very good player, as is Embleton. The club will do well to keep them, the omens are not good.

    Embleton has great potential, needs to break into the team this season. Big future if he does.

    Embleton lit up that league in that team last year, he's showing promise this seadon but certainly proving that being very good in league two doesn't mean they're automatically good enough for the next league up.

    For what it's worth I think Embleton will come into his own 2nd half of the season but he's showing how development is gradual so if Robson doesn't want to be developed properly and gradually by not signing a contract it will be his loss not ours.
