Simon WattsGUEST

They've got players, you know, Paris Magoma has all the attributes to be a really, really good championship player.
Simon WattsGUEST
33:47
But it's finding that consistency and, you know, Makama, Svartal, Jacob Wright, all very, very good young players.
Simon WattsGUEST
33:53
But, you know, 20, 21, 22 years of age, I just...
Simon WattsGUEST
33:57
At the moment, it doesn't seem like they've quite got that balance right and whether they'll have the patience with the coach to let him see it through and get those players kind of to a level where they're performing consistently in the championship.
Steve SandersPANELIST
22:59
But who knows with our medical team? So obviously, dependent on that.
Steve SandersPANELIST
23:05
And again, you kind of feel like a McLean-Matson partnership is too good to pass up on when it works well, which is a little bit unfortunate for Jacob Wright, who I also thought was really good on Saturday, much better than he has been in recent weeks.
Steve SandersPANELIST
23:19
But yeah, I mean, you just like, I think within sort of the first five minutes, Kenny kind of calmly picked up the ball, pivoted and played a really accurate forward pass and just adds that stability.
Steve SandersPANELIST
23:31
You know, I know we were talking about have his legs gone before the unfortunate moment where his legs actually did go.
Chris ReeveHOST
18:37
I think there's a lot of grey in a in a in a in a black and white debate there.
Chris ReeveHOST
18:44
I just think with Paris, especially Paris, especially you could actually probably also argue slightly, maybe Jacob Wright as well.
Chris ReeveHOST
18:53
Maybe not.
Chris ReeveHOST
18:55
I just think he's just been one of those players, there's a handful of them in this side, where they've just not had enough minutes to actually get themselves up to a level.

5 MINS LATER

Chris ReeveHOST
24:24
They talk about that a lot.
Chris ReeveHOST
24:26
I think it's valid to talk about that.
Chris ReeveHOST
24:28
And what we've seen in recent seasons, Jack, is under David Wagner, Stuart Webber's last days, we were, in my humble opinion, lumbered with... way too many experienced players on daft contracts in my humble opinion that were ultimately dead wood that needed shipping off so then we flip-flopped rather than just bringing back the dial slightly we've gone the other way where we've now got a group that's way too young with no championship barely any championship experience efl and so it takes time to build and develop that experience You look at a player like Oskar Schvartau, for example, even like Jacob Wright, you remember how and when we signed him.
Chris ReeveHOST
25:16
Even like Bruno Alves, he hadn't played a single senior game of football.
Zoe MorganPANELIST
20:31
So we just need to see, try and work out what it was that unlocked Cordoba's good player and try and do the same to some of the others.
Zoe MorganPANELIST
20:41
I think Mattson and Wright have not been, a disaster in terms of, you know, Kenny-less world.
Zoe MorganPANELIST
20:49
I think Wright has stepped up coming into the side and certainly offers us, you know, something interesting when things go right.
Zoe MorganPANELIST
20:58
I...
Zoe MorganPANELIST
21:02
I'm worried a bit about Brooks, I would say, in terms of I do feel like his performances have definitely dropped off.

22 MINS LATER

Steve SandersPANELIST
42:58
And that's Manning
Dan BrighamPANELIST
42:59
form.
Dan BrighamPANELIST
43:00
As good as Mattson and Wright have been together, we have missed...
Benjamin BloomHOST
61:52
Abu Kamara, formerly of Norwich, nicks in front, I think.
Benjamin BloomHOST
61:56
Is it Jacob Wright? It says in my notes.
Benjamin BloomHOST
61:59
And wins the penalty.
Benjamin BloomHOST
62:00
He knows what he's doing.
AdamHOST
35:32
Um, it wasn't all plain sailing, I guess, for the Saints.
AdamHOST
35:35
Um, Norwich started the game fairly, fairly well, wasting a, an early opportunity through Schwarzer but Daniel Peretz was called into action to then deny Chris Garden and, and Jacob Wright in, in quick succession.
AdamHOST
35:46
But they grew into the game quite well and Edozie looked particularly dangerous as, as the game went on.
AdamHOST
35:51
Um, in fact it was his drive and running cross that led, eventually led to, to Matsuki reacting quickest after Yander's effort was saved.
DazHOST
70:13
He can go...
DazHOST
70:13
He can fuck off then, can't he? Um, [clears throat] according to Fanalysis, obviously from Norwich fans' point of view, their top-rated players, you've got the midfielder, Jacob Wright, who's the top at-- with sixty-four, which obviously not great.
DazHOST
70:27
Obviously, I think that reflects on how they're feeling about the season so far.
DazHOST
70:31
Forward, uh, Jovan Makama, again, at sixty-four, and then their top-rated player is their midfield, Andre Brooks.
Steve SandersPANELIST
32:55
You heard it here first.
Steve SandersPANELIST
32:56
[laughing] Uh, Jacob Wright, the first-- poor Jacob Wright, the first Norwich City player to score his first two goals for the club in, in defeat since, uh, another JW sort of, Jordan Woads.
Steve SandersPANELIST
33:10
Jordan Woads.
Steve SandersPANELIST
33:13
[laughing] Jordan Woads in 2018.
ChrisGUEST
8:11
Also another couple of players, Southampton fans will probably appreciate a player that plays football well.
ChrisGUEST
8:16
And that's Jacob Wright, who's currently playing in centre mid instead of Kenny McLean.
ChrisGUEST
8:20
Jacob Wright, we saw him from Manchester City.
ChrisGUEST
8:21
He's very much from the squad of Guardiola.
ChrisGUEST
8:25
And so he plays football really well, technical.
Hugh WoozencroftHOST
3:16
They continued their impressive start, uh, coming from behind to beat Norwich City 2-1.
Hugh WoozencroftHOST
3:20
They trailed to Jacob Wright's first half opener.
Hugh WoozencroftHOST
3:23
The hosts pounced twice inside the first 15 minutes of the second half, though, with goals for Moussa Yaw and the former Canary striker, Adam Idah, as well.
Hugh WoozencroftHOST
3:32
That win maintained Swansea's momentum from before the international break, and they now make it three wins on the spin.
