Watching the friendly online, seriously in all of his career I can count on one hand the number of times SW Philips he has hit a well weighted cross, it beggars belief really - if we were one nil down in a premier league game and a cross fell to SWP I would not get excited. Matty Philips on the other hand seems to put a dangerous ball in every time, even if he's not on the break. I really hope the coaching staff observe these things because good crosses win games, specially when you have Charlie in the box. |  | | |  |

I thought SWP did okay but his crossing was ling each time, but then he is out on the left and not the right so I would cut him some slack. Perhaps we didn't have any sound on the youtube feed to stifle the sound of everyone there booing him? |  |

I agree, the guy can run like forest gump and get get round a man but I don't think he's a match winner is my point, for all the effort he puts in which I respect and commend - I would play him over a lazy player - I don't think he should be played ahead of players who have the quality to win games like Matty Philips. | | | |

Sorry but he was awful - seriously worried he might even play next season. Oh god I hope not!!! |  | | |

Got to be in Arry's plans for next Saturday or else why would he have 'played' in every pre season match?
Pathetic waste of money. Methinks he could be our Jonah next week and beyond in a very tough league where we need 11 men on the pitch |  |

I have the same fears seeing he has started all the pre season games I've been to. Shockingly bad player and has been for some six seasons not just since we signed him. | | | |

This is the last year of his contract.
Or hell freezes over.

Never was a decent player inside in the first place, maybe the nicest most hard working player on the planet but professional player at the high end of the sport......not in a million years.
Big problem the game had and still does to a certain extent, pro contracts offered on zero proof of having a smidgeon of basic skills, run like a greyhound or be built like a brick shi* house at 17/18 and a reasonable chance if your old man was a pro player for a top club some manager would sign you up.
He got lucky, at the time of his ascent into the sport the pace of defenders on the whole was poor or non existent, he was quick over fifty yards and even now and again could kick the ball towards the goal or a team mate, that descended to a ratio of 1% of the time he has spent on the pitch for a good number of years, dosn't say a lot on the judgement of the managers that have signed him either, some people are just born lucky............... |  | | |

Still managed to tear us a new one when City beat us 0-3 in the cup that time... |  |

He has been useless since the day we got him. He has never had a good game. He has been a complete waste of money.
On the other hand, he did score against the scum….. |  |

was at the friendly - he was hit a cross field pass and everyone in the crowd could see that as soon as it bounced it would go over his head and out for a throw. It did. 10 minutes later and exactly the same thing, waits for it to bounce and it goes out over his head. He just doesnt have it anymore. Just because you can run 100metres in 10 seconds that does not make you a footballer - he has got to be nowhere near our 25 man squad. |  |

He will deffo be in our 25 man squad though barring a real glut of late signings!
As long as he doesn't get near the actual match day squad i can live with it... | | | |

Can't control a ball, cant pass, cross, tackle or shoot. Can run quickly.
if i wanted something to run fast, I'd have bought a greyhound. |  |

Yes, it's his all-round game that is so impressive. |  |

I think that is pretty close to the (sad) truth. I think he at least tries to tackle and will track back and try to get then ball back when we lose it. Not everyone does that.
What really annoys me about him is that surely practising will help him - finally - get to the point where he can shoot and pass accurately. These are basic skills and it is his job to be able to execute them properly. His shooting is wildly inaccurate. How can that be? Surely someone from the coaching staff can help him at least get his shots on target more often than not.

Haven't seen much of Traore or YSY recently! Are they injured? Has to be a fair chance that SWP will be lwb against Hull. I was at Paok game and overall I thought he did quite well Whether he is strong enough to do it in the League is another matter entirely.
If he does play FFS let's not make it worse by getting on his back! | | | |
