Interestingly, he definitely said Jake Doyle-Haynes has been ill, which makes you think he's viewing him as a bench option. Why mention him otherwise.

abdulaziz1 Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 We need managers who have the courage to play these youngsters. Hopefully Smith is the one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am as anxious as the next man to give young Callum a chance....but its the player that needs the courage and the support on the pitch. i would wait until the defence is fixed and operating in a resolute fashion and then introduce him, in cameo's to start with. He is diminutive in stature and as such can easily be taken out and overrun, he needs players around him that can use their muscle to chaperone him in a fashion. There are players at other clubs, who are a bit older, with similar stature like Bannan,Forshaw, Dack, Allen, Woods, Norwood.....but he needs to settle in and develop his territory, but at present, I don't think he has the players around him to help do that. It will come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Willard Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Hope he has a chance in the Cup game. I feel he could fill a void with Jack missing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A'Villan Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 In the very little I have seen of O'Hare I was very impressed with his short passing and movement. Strange that we allowed Onomah the role of AM and not O'Hare but perhaps that was the agreement with both Spurs and Onomah. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted January 4, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2019 Can’t post it as not on twitter but villa have tweeted a picture with him with the message “champing at the bit” accompanying it. That suggests to me two things - 1. Whenever I’ve said “chomping at the bit” I’ve sounded a bit silly. 2. He’s available for selection for tomorrow’s game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Seems a bit odd the manager saying he is injured ...yet one of the coaches tweets a picture of him in training ? Will surely get a run out tommorow- as would JDH who imo looks the better player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted January 4, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2019 I'm a bit disappointed he hasn't made an appearance in the past few games. Think he should have been given 20 minutes here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah I agree, when he was on the bench it would be nice to see him come on to get a few minutes under his belt. My main thought on his lack of time on the pitch is where he fits in the team. As far as I understand it, he’s a number ten so the 4-3-3 that we seem to favour perhaps isn’t the most ideal for him. Hopefully he gets a chance tomorrow.

Tomaszk Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 If he does get on, it's up to Callum to put a bit of pressure on the manager and make it impossible to leave him out of Championship squads. The crowd will be with him big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
