He was rated by Pardew, then when big Sam arrived he was injured and he never got a proper look at him. It's hard to offer a player a new deal when you haven't even had a chance to see him play. Now we have Frank in who will be the one to ultimately make a decision on whether he deserves a new contract or will be let go. I rate him and am sure he will do enough to warrant a contract from FdB.

Williams is a different kettle of fish if you were going to bring him up. He is very young and has the potential for significant sell on value or caveats for sell on clauses should he be sold and then so very well, he was also on peanuts so it made sense for the club to tie him down to protect ourselves financially.

bac from injury and was used as a cdm, lw and cam so how do you plsy yourself back in and get some form that way? Unless we have a decent (ridiculous) offer keep him. Big as he does more than one job in the middle and passes well which I would have thought FdB would want.
Having said that there is no smoke without fire so our opinions don't matter quite as much as SP or FdB

Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).

He wouldn't be as he wasn't named in the squad for the Asia Cup.

Who is the man with no face 3rd from left 2nd row?

I got vision, and the rest of the world wears bifocals.

Reports today that Burnley are looking at him again.

According to the media speculation that I've seen we are looking for £2m but there again as Burnley have just signed Jack Cork the whole story might be rubbish
