I like Jack as a player.
I think he’s tenacious and has a lovely left foot (which is advantageous in a squad to enable it to be balanced).
I know it’s possible to ‘over egg’ the academy connection but I do also think it’s important for us to retain a core of ex-academy players to act as visible role models for the younger ones coming through.
Even if some of them are mainly squad players.
If we get an experienced left sided centre back to replace Grounds (Friend?) to compete with or cover for Hartridge, then with Mitchell at wingback and Jack as cover there I’d be happy with that and to then focus on other elements of our squad which will need more attention.
