I used to think similar to you in that respect BUT this season Shaun has come on and really looks the part in Center mid, as others have said miles better than Missalou.
We desperately need a right wing back, defender as a must once the utterly useless Smith goes.
Hats off to KC for this one, oh and if I’m being greedy a new L1 standard keeper.
Last season I started to have my doubts about him. Injuries and inconsistent and at one point I thought he might get released.
Since his recovery from injury he’s showing that he is a quality footballer and stands out in our midfield, a bit like he did when first broke into the team.
He does need to learn to judge his lunges a bit better but you don’t want to lose the edge to his aggressive game. A couple of times when he’s played in defence he’s looked good as well. Long may it continue.

Obviously we have no idea how much money he is on, say a rough estimate at £10K a week, you’d be talking around £150K for the last three and a half months of the season.


Professional footballers must be the only people who's contracts are still broken down into £s per week.

+1

Championship quality, hence Derby's previous interest.
Hopefully contract talks being concluded.
Dont get me wrong, i like Sean, definitely 'one of our own', you can see that just from the way he plays. Very good defensively breaking up play obviously, and I can see what is being said about driving forwards this season. The best at what he does well by a large margin for us.
I'm just not sure how good he is going to be in terms of ball distribution when adding that to driving forwards? Keep thinking of Sammy H in that respect.
Mention of Derby and the Championship reminds me of Bradley Johnson.I really hope I'm proved wrong but if Sean does get a move to a higher level, I dont see him making as much of an impression as he has since he left us.

In terms of distribution he is young enough to improve but he can’t be expected to do everything, in some respect he is being let down by the other central midfielders who offer very little.
I also wouldn’t worry about how well he does when he eventually leaves, in the right now if we are going to ever progress or even just stay in league one he is the sort of player that should be key.

For me we have had 2 players this season who have looked league 1 class in Sheehan and McWilliams, Shaun looks miles ahead in terms of quality to Sowerby, Watson and Missilou. Completely agree with OCoole in that if this club ever wants to be considered a professional outfit it should be offering McWilliams a new contract now instead of waiting till the end of the season and being shocked that he end up elsewhere.


Agree with the plaudits for McW as he is a key member of the team. Only drawback is not his potential Red Card scenario but his potential  injury situation. Don't quite understand the concern on professionalism as exhibited by the Club or indeed Management. Pretty sure KC will consider all his options when considering a contract(s). Another thing I believe Sowerby and Watson are L1 quality players and have shown it against Gillingham and Sunderland.

I also think Sowerby and Watson can hold their own in league one if the rest of the team was right.

According to twitter...

Smith on his way to Scotland for a medical before signing for Motherwell on loan until end of season...

Says we turned down approaches from L1 teams, which is strange if perm deal was being offered, as he's still got another year on his contract

Perhaps, ntfclad can clarify

I agree. Those three are potentially L1 quality which is why I find it very strange that KC has prioritised a CM signing (for the final spot in the 22 man squad) rather than one of the other areas of the pitch where we lack quality.

They have Cole up front, can’t see Smith in any other role than bench warming, which he’s actually not that bad at.

No bids have been good enough. Mentioned a couple of days Rovers was a non starter at the moment, and he was off to Scotland on loan.

Good info!

Madness that we are holding out for more money for him. Would have thought we would be happy just to get him off the books for good.

Interestingly, I heard Charlton have gazumped Rovers for Stockley (offered more money in wages and a higher future fee) so he may be off there, Smith off to Motherwell too so they look to have missed the boat for him unless they launch a last minute hijack attempt

I'm not worrying about how well he does if he leaves us but I wouldn't want to see him fail. I was simply comparing him to Bradley Johnson because someone suggested he was championship quality. I dont see that atm.
