Players you really misjudged 19:22 - May 2 with 3368 views | saffers12 | Hladky for me, after the 2 2 v Wimbledon and Cook bought Walton, said he will never play for us again | | | | |
Players you really misjudged on 19:25 - May 2 with 2307 views | MK1 | Jackson. Never rated him and thought he was a total waste of money. I have said it before and I will say it again, never listen to me where judging a player is concerned. | | | |
Players you really misjudged on 19:27 - May 2 with 2300 views | Nthsuffolkblue | I am certain that Hladky is only first choice because Walton started the season injured. I am sure that, had he been fit, Walton was the first choice. How that would have impacted our season no one knows. However, Hladky has been superb over the season. I think few would have expected that but he joined us off the back of being the best keeper in League 2 so it shouldn't be a surprise. I think he will be replaced in the Prem but you never know. | |

Players you really misjudged on 19:30 - May 2 with 2249 views | wkj | Hindsight is a womderful thing, but when we got Walton there no mistaking who the better keeper was out of the two. It has to me said that Hladky is one of many player who have come on leaps and bounds under McKenna's stewardship and has, at very least, been as good as Walton. | |

Players you really misjudged on 19:33 - May 2 with 2225 views | textbackup | Hutchinson… first few games he stood out as a proper young prem loanee, in the sense he wasn’t aligned to how the rest of them play. Swansea game happened and it changed my opinion… the rest is history | |

Players you really misjudged on 19:35 - May 2 with 2194 views | Churchman | Wes Burns. This season is the first time I’ve seen him live. He’s a far better player than he looks on tv - some players are (e.g. Paul Mariner). Aside from the obvious things like pace, Burns gets into positions and makes runs defenders absolutely hate. When out injured it really showed. | | | |

Hutch for me has to be the best loan we've had since Magic came in from Weds. If we go up I reckon Chelsea will happily let him go out for a year of prem experience. | |

I mean, not being horrible, but let’s not pretend he’s been anything more than average for us. Helps out when needs be, but never had a game where he’s been a 9 or a 10/10… really A good servant to the club, absolutely | |

No as I'm fully aware of his positive attributes. Burgess.. I never thought in a millions years that he'd be able to step up to this level in such a way. His touch and passing has come on massively and of course his power in the air is excellent anyway He still struggles at times against fast feet coming at him. But we've looked worse without Burgess in the side which I think anyway the stats back up. ( I'm probably wrong here lol ). [Post edited 2 May 19:38]

V leicester I'd say a 9. | |

Starts a sentence with ‘I’m not being horrible’…… usually means you are being horrible for sure | | | |
Players you really misjudged on 19:51 - May 2 with 2041 views | Hipsterectomy | On the other side of the coin I thought Pigott would be a good signing for us. A Leyton supporting friend reckons he’s one of the worst players he’s ever seen there and he will be gone in the summer if they can get rid. I think there was a tragedy with a family member when he joined us and it’s been a rough time for him. 8 goals in 3 seasons when he was banging in 15-20+ a season for Wimbledon | |

Players you really misjudged on 19:52 - May 2 with 2033 views | BarcaBlue | I thought Burgess was a typical average League One defender. Good with his head defending crosses and corners but limited in his pace, positioning and passing. I think maybe he should have scored more this season but at the back he's been superb. | | | |

Yep, same here. And of course Brandon Williams. I misjudged him twice. First I worried he might be crap, then was convinced he was going to be one of our players of the season. The only thing I hadn’t guessed was he’d go missing in action. | |

Williams performance levels were bizarre Looked like reece wabara when he first played. Then looked like a right sided Davis. Then went awol. | |

Players you really misjudged on 20:14 - May 2 with 1888 views | bluelagos | Remember being under whelmed when we signed Mark Venus, Jermaine Wright - both went onto to be very, very good players. Wouldn't say I misjudged Hladky - truth is he is performing at a much higher standard now than earlier in his Towen career which is great for him (and us) | |

All relative to expectations, isn't it? Good servant, who stays fit, trains well, behaves professionally is what you want from a fringe player and 7 goals/assists in 939 minutes is a great return for that kind of squad member. | |

Interesting that our best manager in years thinks rather highly of him. | |

A thread where you can hold your hands up and admit you were wrong too. The continual attacks on Jackson, Burns and Woolfie from particular individuals this season on here have been bizarre, and at times verging on the manic obsessive. | | | |
