I just think at 20 yr old, if we cant trust him and would be a risk to champ teams - I dont see how he could have a league 1 season that would propel him into our first team or even a top champ team Has some good attributes but I don't even think he has settled position yet
There are a lot of factors to consider, we could get relegated, we could get European qualification. Both of those potentially open up a slot for him. There are other scenarios we can't envisage right now that can open up a slot for him.
Yeah true, just think even if we did go down I dont believe he is a player that will be contributing to a promotion chasing championship team Hopefully the kid proves me wrong, great attitude and filled in well in the friendly against sporting - I wonder if the route for some of these multi skilled CM's is to drop into full back positions just look at the boy lewis skelly
Yep it's def too early imo, he does need to go and get minutes to improve his all round game I think he's at the age now, plus in the last yr of his contract, where he needs 1st team minutes. I don't see the point in keeping him around the squad if he's hardly going to feature for us as I don't think that's the right thing for his development
It’s incredible to see how little people need to see players before making big judgements on them … … it’s an easy game to play though, write them off then later on say they’ve developed as you thought they might. Even going back to Roker there was always someone who trot out, ‘He’ll never make a football player while I've got a hole in my arse!’ The coaches must look at these forums and roll their eyes.
I agree the lad needs minutes and games. Interesting he was picked at full back the other evening, makes you wonder if the coaches have seen something to suggest he would be better there than midfield?
I think it sums up how much hes trusted as well. I dont see him as a fullback but he played well both games so maybe he can develop into that role. I've been impressed with hin when I've seen him, I'm not sure what his level will be - at the minute I'm leaning towards Championship level CM but that can easily change Players develop at different rates but I do feel its a really important season for Jones, he must get experience playing most weeks and I cant see him getting that here. Probably a L1 loan would be good for him or a top of L2 move
I just think if you are good enough at 20 you are getting minutes here or somewhere else - we were always looking at the top prem young players to try and pinch Alese, Cirkin etc. is anyone going for Jones - Maybes maybe not Really hope im wrong - The difference is im not professing to always be right and defend their point like some do on here Its all guesswork and opinion as most is in life
I’ve said since last season I don’t think Harrison Jones will make it here. It’s just an early prediction, hopefully wrong and he does the business
