Lewis Hall

[arnonel]

Some of his passing was absolutely sublime. World class

[Gallowgate Toon]

What I like most about him is that he takes responsibility on the ball himself. Really, really impressive.

I am more pissed that we didn’t play him more when we were still in Europe

He wasn’t very good then tbf.  He’s needed time to settle.

He’ll learn the defensive positioning as he goes, his fitness will improve but his ball control, passing and shooting looks class.

[sugoinufc]

exciting times ahead - huge potenial. what a goal, pure class

[TBG]

So a bargain or still a waste of summer spending? 

[Likelylad]

Such a lovely range of passing. 

Got potential to top tier if he keeps improving his defensive positioning 

[Sibierski]

I’m not really concerned that greatly about his defensive side, as it’s never going to be top class, just needs to be serviceable which will come with experience and exposure.

 

His main asset as said before is going forward, wanting the ball, and allowing us to control play more out wide, and centrally if he comes inside. It’s one area we as a team need to improve bloody loads in, control possession to take sting out of games, wear certain opposition down, and it will see Hall in more attacking positions, where his strengths are really shown more.

 

Think giving current England state at LB, he’ll be in the England fold next season, and legit chance of being starting LB come World Cup 26.

[Sibierski]

The technique for his two goals at OT this season bloody lovely too. Strikes a ball more cleanly than Gordon it could be argued

It was always a good signing.

Even if it's a little half-nothing ball down the wing he tends to look forward more than most when in possession. A couple more players with that mindset and we're cooking.

 

Imagine how good he's going to be in a few years

Classic one for the future.

 

The problem with summer spending is that everyone, myself included, focuses on how it will effect the upcoming season and not the next 4/5.

Would be really interested to see how that looked. Did he find he couldn't do the drills? Was he not fit enough? Did he not look interested or concentrate enough?

Seems like fitness and attitude, with emphasis on the attitude, in terms of Eddie's own attitude towards him. In fairness, he'd just been thrown into a totally new situation as a young lad, having left the chaos of Chelsea.

He'll be our LB for another decade I reckon, top lad.

Getting noticed

I'm usually harsh on defenders defending... but I thought he was pretty good defensively. 2 kids up against each other like.

[gbandit]

Wonder if he’d have had any game time at all if our back four hadn’t been starring in Casualty this season. One example of the injuries being an indirect positive

We know the answer to that.

[Kid Icarus]

I'd also have no doubts that he'd have started 24/25 like Gordon did.

[The College Dropout]

Am I crazy for thinking Hall is probably 4-6 weeks short of being in the England squad?
We don't have many left-back options.
