Welcome to Alty and good luck
-
Was supposed to be on a season long loan at Southport which was obviously ended early for some reason? Highly rated by Wigan manager Paul Cook who wants him to play competitive football.

He was recalled by Wigan in November.

Welcome

Nice one could be a big help for the final push.
Is he handy with a fork ;)
-
Odd signing...unless he is going to play centre defence...
Not going to drop moult...hes likely to stick with harrop although many like me would prefer richman?
Bit like the white signing which seems to have unnecesarily unsettled what had been a reliable defence....
-
I would imagine he will replace harrop who I would consider playing on the left which is where he played when he first arrived
-
Doesn’t make good reading for Laurence Taylor or Rhain Davis, does it...
-
Maybe Hancock is injured and like someone said above we put Harrop out wide. However I do feel we need Harrop in centre mid,unless this lad can pass.
Harrop's passing is vital.
Still feel Harrop and Richman would give us all the energy we need in there. I know I keep mentioning it and I do like Moult but he is slowing down.
-
Admittedly I have seen the team in person far less than others commenting on this thread I’m sure but regardless of the lads position we are hardly going to turn down a loan player from a club who will be in the Championship next season. Let’s hope he is as well remembered as Josh Ginnelly or Ryan Shotton.

Might favour Moult over Jones meaning someone's needed next to Harrop
-
I was hoping he was a Striker but with 3/4 games a week from now on we need bodies. He will be a direct replacement for Harrop and Harrop will give us an extra option on the wing.

He apparently "has an eye for goal", and he did score once in his five appearances for Scouseport.
-
Harrop has been our most influential midfielder and Moult is an ever present, so unless he plays lw I've no idea.
-
Whilst I appreciate Harrop's commitment, I think he is a potential red card waiting to happen with the way he can fly into tackles. I hope I'm proven wrong but he has already had one red this season. I also think he often chooses the wrong pass and tries to be too 'Hollywood' far too often.
We looked far more solid with Richman in the middle. Poole, Johnston, Hancock and Hulme can create/score enough between them. Goals are being conceded at a much higher frequency since the change was made (given it was around the same time as Jones for Hannigan too)

I think we can afford to play Harrop at home. I disagree,most of his passes get to the man and he sees a pass that neither Moult or Richman can. I personally like all 3 but when Moult is run passed he often doesn't catch up. However he wins a lot of headers. Difficult one. Maybe Harrop out wide is the option.
Not only Hannigan but Densmore.
There winner on Tuesday came from a foul White committed. He needs dropping because like Bembo-Leta he is often positioned wrong or way off his man.
-
Densmore simply has to start. White is out of position on the right apart from any other consideration. Hannigan for Jones is a no brainer.
If Hancock is fit, I'd put Merrie on the bench and see what develops.
-
Harrop has been outstanding in central midfield. His passing is a joy to watch and I like his tenacity. The defensive issue is that Jones is simply not at the same level as Tom Hannigan. The games that we were winning and not conceding goals, Hannigan was present.
