Where will Rigg go that will give him that many prem minutes at 19
Phil Smith has said the new coaches who have come in, and after speaking with the players, there's a real feeling that the standards have gone up massively. Players understand they have real competition now and are excited. They understand how ruthless we need to be
I don't get this...if he's just returned from a club competition, then logic would say the lad is fit as a butchers dog and super match fit
I can’t think of many teenagers who play week in week out in the PL like. Lewis Skelly came through and Nwaneri but only because of injury. Archie Gray, who looked absolutely appalling for Spurs. Rico Lewis maybe if he’s young enough? Other than that I’m stuck.
a lot of here we go's to come I think - Phil Smith
that'll do me!
that'll do me!
I keep forgetting about Le Fee, what a player we have there
Nwaneri, Lewis-Skelly, Yoro, Scarles, Gray, Dibling, Bergvall, Tel, Odobert, Mainoo, Lewis, Huijsen, Hinshelwood, Hall, Dorgu, Buonanotte.
Only players who started the season below 20 and played over 500 minutes
Is this a recorded interview or transcript? Wouldn’t mind listening to it on the way home if it’s recordeda lot of here we go's to come I think - Phil Smith
that'll do me!

This lad any good?
French
Could still go to AFCON

Left Footed
Worth a fortune
Plays for Monaco. Haway Juan, earn your coin.
The point is, if the choice is between not playing at safc versus not playing at arsenal or Chelsea on 3x his wage, he’s likely to choose the latter. In reality he’d probably choose Germany over either, but the effect is similar. We get forced to sell him at a lower price than we’d like.

Surprised we haven’t been linked to him.
Right in the mould.
I think the club has already anticipated having the need for a larger squad by employing additional coaching staff to ensure that coaching is not too much of a burden to RLB . That highlights how much more professional the club is managed since the arrival of KLD and Speakman we now have a good infrastructure in place .
I am guessing minor issues that mean they aren't in ideal condition for the next few dsys, so why make them play in a friendly when they could aggravte their conditions. Could just be they have colds, or a minor strain. I thought Rigg's voice was strained in his behind the scenes training video - could be he had a minor cold.
That is kind of my point mate. Nobody has yet had chance to see what version of Rigg we now have. Similarly Neil. So much water to go under the bridge between now and game 1. I honestly dont think we have a signed a player this summer with more potential than Rigg. For me he is the diamond in the club. Way too soon to say he isnt going to be a main man this season, or even start game 1. Neil is coming upto 200 pro games under his belt already. I think folk underestimate what it takes to do that at his age, even at the level. He isnt far behind Le Fee, which seems a bit mad to say. But it is an indicator of a player with big growth potential season to season. There are no guarantees any of our players, new or existing, will flourish in the premier league. So we cant really have a set mindset on who our starting line up is 3 weeks out, in my opinion anyway.
Yep, me anarl.
Mind, if it wasn't for VAR, maybe linos would start doing their jobs again!
A fully fit Ross Stewart I’m still convinced would be perfect in this system, or a Kenwyne jones regen he was a monster pre injury
