True, he was only responsible for shipping one or two goals in his time here, defensive rock" The question is whether or not he will win our player of the season award. |

Do you know if a testimonial is planned?

DJ got some game time today in Charlton's loss.
But I don't think Smith has been of the bench has he? Bit of a waste, but I bet his hearing will be better off

He has had just the one 13 minute cameo, Batch. Charlton have some experienced options in there, hopefully he will get a regular run as it would be a shame if he can’t build on his first few break through months.

yeah, that's the disadvantage of going to a competent established team.

Thing is, those players (DJ & Smith) are both young and will be in a much better environment. Instead of a manager saying
"what the <expletive every other word>> you doing?"
They will see players ahead of them and that will give them an idea of what they need to do to break through. They'll see a management team with an idea or direction (maybe several ideas), in order to create a pathway towards success.
It's a fair transition for a player to sit on the bench when going to a bigger club, get a few minutes, maybe a half. Then take that game time onto the training ground when working on personal development, and so on. Until you're doing as much as the others or maybe something a little bit quicker than those ahead of you. Once selected, then you have your chance to hold that spot.
A hell of a lot of other factors at play of course but you can only focus on yourself and then hope that a few other things slip into line as well. Being in the right kind of place/environment initially is a great starting point.

He’s such a good footballer for that level, it’s a shame he’s an absolute liability.

I think he had a child fairly recently so is probably going to use that as his inspiration to stop being a fanny and start consistently doing what he is good at on the pitch. As to how long that will last? I'm sceptical. |
