I'm happy enough with Embleton going tbh. We've got people involved now who are very happy to give youth a chance and a pathway. If they've looked at Embleton and decided not to keep him, fair enough. I like the fact that he's two footed, but he's not a really young kid any more. At this age he needs to be good enough to be impacting games. Instead (not his fault I know) he seems to get regular injuries which hamper both his development and his chances of getting a run in the side. Again, also not his fault, but in the few chances that he's had he hasn't done enough to stand out. If he had a couple of years left I'd want us to keep him. As it is we need to decide now if he's worth a new contract when things will be tight simply due to the wage cap. I'm not sure that he justifies taking some of it tbh. If he was looking really good in training and the likes I'm sure that both Speakman and Johnson would want to keep him. I hope that he manages to put his injuries behind him mind, there's definitely a footballer in there.
Agreed, maybe I’m being harsh but I can’t think of a game where he’s played well or stood out. He must be about 23 now? So probably nearing the finished article too.
