G Wind

[GBJ]

I have it on good authority that George is a consummate professional. He doesn’t moan or cause fuss, despite the lack of game time. He just gets his head down and carries on working towards earning his spot.

Away to Rochdale on debut

I was there along with 320 other witnesses, the bloke did good

Of course everyone knew what you meant, don’t worry about Mr sarcasm, he can never help but have a needless dig!

Not talking about you @turkishm just to be clear!

Stating a fact isn't sarcasm. Saying I like your posts is.

Hope that clears things up for you,

I know I am in the minority but would like to see if we could accommodate both GSM and Wind in the same side (with GSM playing as a winger in 4-4-2 formation).

Feel for the lad as I think he’s been a victim of the circumstances. There’s only one RWB spot in the team and Gus has been immense this season, so although it’s disappointing he’s not had many minutes, it’s hard when the guy in front of you scores 17 and is the first name on the teamsheet.

Bundles of potential though and despite the lack of minutes, I feel like he’ll still feel he’s in the right place. Hope to see more of him though as I’ve been really impressed.

You can only go on what you see, and his performances prove his worth, I can't see how fans make opinions on what you can't see, strange way of looking at things?

Hhmmm, not sure I've seen anything to suggest GW is a match changing substitute.

Why would you expect a defender to come on and change the game? A more attacking player maybe, but a defender generally comes on to plug a gap.

I think he knew he was coming in as Gus' understudy, if and when Gus goes, he will be one of the first names on the team sheet.

I wouldn't, post I was replying to was.

As OBL said, he knew what he was getting into when he signed. Gus has been extremely durable, probably freakishly so, given the volume of games he's played*

I think there have probably been moments that I'd like GSM to come off for a rest and Wind to get some minutes, but those opportunities have been few and far between. Wind will have to continue to be patient, and it's great that we have a quality player ready to step in if needed. I agree with others who say that he looks to be a great squad player with a really good attitude.


*Top 10 outfield players in the league. Most of the others are centre-halves, and we also had a couple of decent cup runs that he featured in.
