Read a bit about him from a wigan perspective a few days ago - apparently he was okay in the holding role for them but really impressed when someone else took that holding role (can't remember who) and Williams was able to be more box to box which is how he sees himself. Which will leave me very disappointed if we are intending to play him alongside a combination of saville, mcnair and howson because thats what we already have. But I'm giving warnock the benefit of the doubt for now that he's going to move one or two of our midfielders on and replace them with better. Link to post Share on other sites

And dont say warnock signing a new deal because that was a given SDS kept us pretty much up to speed with the step to step signing of Dijksteel. I dont recall which poster said we and Brentford were after a blackpool defender. That turned out to be Bola. Think it was @diggerlad07 who told us Boro had followed Maddison for sometime but there were serious reservation about his attitude. Again these are just ones i recall of top of my head.

LBP 3,035 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Williams looks class to me, proper bite in midfield but good on the ball as well 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,490 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 @Tobermory Whitby. There a video of Williams on youtube. It seems for Wigan he played a bit further up but there a video of his Bolton loan where he certainly looked like the midfield ball winner. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah we have a lot of low scoring, box to box midfielders. I'm not sure we need another one. Link to post Share on other sites

TLF10 4,490 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Regarding Williams being a box to box midfielder. I am unsure myself so hoping someone can assist. Does Warnock play with a classical defensive midfielder or are his midfielders ALL box to box midfielders who do both sides of game well? Like your Howsos, Paddy Savilles? I dont recall his former sides having a properly defined defensive midfielder but could be wrong? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I definitely think he's different to what we have, a lot more desire to win the ball than our midfield I'd say. More Leadbitter than Clayton imo but definitely more mobile than Grant 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I do have a link to someone with inside info. i posted some info about Gibson situation when he left last time. There was a lot behind the scenes to do with Bens dad and Steve. Family issues - Ben was very torn about leaving. I went to school with Ben - I was a couple of years above him though. I anoint you as being ITK.
