?? That doesn't even make sense.
Here we go. You can[t help it :emoticon-0136-giggl
I said what I see on Tigers+ videos. Of course it's all edited and staged, just to make it look like Giles actually has mates.
I asked how others like Brady, and HT know, and I can now add you in there too now. I'm waiting.
Can't believe I've got into an argument calling out others calling out Giles! I'm as glad as anyone to see the back of him.

Christ it was a joke, like you do half the time. You asked how he knew, I said because you said. Breathe.
 
Hey, writing from Sweden. What type of player is Xavier Simons? Qualities? Why hasn't he been successful at Hull?

Hello.

I would say he’s a ball-winning midfielder who can also play as a box-to-box number 8. He’s athletic and physical and has scored a couple goals from distance this season. Our previous head coach played him quite a bit but the new head coach prefers Alzate as the number 6 so he’s not been playing as much. He’s a decent player but has a lot of room for improvement, especially on the ball. He needs to be playing consistently.

He’s alright, a well rounded player that can do a bit of everything, but not very consistent. Games tend to pass him by quite a lot without him having much involvement. He could probably play any central midfield role but I don’t think he’d excel at any of them. Maybe in an easier league he might be a bit better.
 
I think Simons will have a good career. He's a decent, reliable player now and I think people forget how young he is. I wouldn't be letting him go permanently personally.

I’m not sure about reliable, he’s 22 in a couple of weeks and I’d have hoped to see more from him by now. He’s had a really good chance to stake a claim in the first team here over the last few months and he’s not taken it, can’t see him ever getting that sort of opportunity here again now with the additions we’ve made and I can’t see when he’s going to play. So don’t really see the point in keeping him here.
