Wasn't some of that down to a serious injury which is why he didn't come through so quick after that Swindon debut?It was such a shame. The lad was brimming with confidence at a tough place to go.. To disappear off the radar completely seemed odd.
Maybe ...I thought his injury was later ?Wasn't some of that down to a serious injury which is why he didn't come through so quick after that Swindon debut?
Jack was our best player at the start of last season and then, once he had fully recovered from injury, he re-established himself as first-choice left wing-back in what was, let's not forget, the best team in League 2 at the time.Unfortunately hes not had the best of luck with injuries 1/2 bad ones and that may have hindered what could of been for me. Just feel hes never really cut it in our 1st team, at times he looked out of his depth in L2 and now this season in L1 even more so.
One of his best traits is that imo he can deliver a decent ball into the box and can leather a ball but is very 1 footed. If we were to cut ties with him i feel step back to take 2 steps forward for him could be the case, with a L2 club most likely unless a good offer came in from the national league, ultimately he needs to play. Theres still time ahead for jack, hes at a good age with plenty of football ahead of him weather its with or without us.
You never know GC might just be giving him a kick up the arse. I don’t care what anyone says Caldwell has been a bit strange in his strategic picks. He didn’t give Harper a single minute at first, literally nothing for his first two-three months in charge…then all of a sudden he starts every game..work that one out.Does anyone have conclusive proof that Caldwell has written Jack off? He's been in the squad for pretty well every game and there is a simple explanation for him not being in the first team - Mitchell is a better player.
I agree we should try to keep him. His defensive frailties have been suspected for some time and now proved at this level beyond all reasonable doubt. But there could be a role for him further forward, particularly left MF is where we've often stuck our best players as there's no-one else to fill the role. And he's relatively cheap..
