Owly Mowly Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Part of the season last year hutch was MOM a few games running, he was in great form and being talked about as a class premier league standard player. He was at a good level of fitness then, and when he is he is a must in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjani Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 This won't be popular but those 6 games we won in a row at the end of last season came when Jones was in the team with Hutch out injured. There is is no denying Hutchinson is a fantastic player, just Jones seems to be playing with confidence now and he does a good job. As someone else mentioned, he has more patience than Hutchinson. Added to to the fact we don't give away half as many free kicks when Hutchinson isn't in the team. Jones was excellent yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannon has been sensational but I think this has, in part, been down to Jones' outstanding contribution in the middle of the park - the latter's solid play allows the former to express himself. I can't see a fit Hutch getting back in the team ahead of Jones. Thoughts? Hutchinson "could" be the best player in the league, sadly he has the brain of a giddy toddler once he gets on the football pitch, not to mention the knees of the gingerbread man Jones reads the game and plays that role much better. If we had someone with Jones' positional sense but could also run we'd be laughing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Chow Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 It's time to stop relying on hutch now. Don't get me wrong hes a pationate player but we can't keep depending on someone to be fit that's 50/50 most games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamK2292 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Jones doesn't have to get injured, Carlos would just drop him for no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
island owl Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Bannan & Jones works well, just think Jones needs to get his passing better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smarties Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 When Hutch plays it's more or less a 5-3-2 great in defence but as a team we struggle to create much. That's not saying Hutch is a bad player. Hutch's strengths are defensive (CB) and that he can come back from injury, join as a sub anytime and gels straight into the side(which is a real rare skill). I would keep Bannan and Jones in the centre, let them settle and create a good understanding with each other. Leave Hutch on the bench to jump in when if needed.

bigash_swfc Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Jones played 4 out 6, in our winning streak, at the end of last season. Only missed the last 2 games due to injury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowl Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I think Hutchinson's an excellent player, and has had many MOM performances for us, particularly at CB. It's noteworthy however that both Lees and Bannan have looked less able playing alongside him. I suspect his play is less disciplined than either Loovens or Jones, and so perhaps he's less easy to play alongside. I'd still like to see Hutchinson at CB again though. Maybe it would only reveal that Lees is less steady by his side, or perhaps there's a better combination amongst the CBs than Lees + another.

Spookone Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Jones isn't an eye catching player but his record of playing in promotion winning teams speaks for its self, plus its very rare he actually loses the ball and as has been said Bannan, who when he is on top form I rate as our most important player, does seem to be playing better with him.
