Great news, developing into a very good player. Any idea how long he's signed up for?

Slightly odd given he only signed a new deal last year, and still had two and a half years to run on his current one, but he’s really good so whatever yay

Hopefully better terms, as he deserves it.

Most underrated player we currently have, I reckon.

I am more than happy to be wrong about him from back in his right wing back at Burton against Bristol days. I slated him when he was getting minutes here and there all over the pitch.

He's a completely different player and with a good run in the side he's established himself and I think this season he's been better than Sheaf.

Really rate Eccles but he needs to be more in the face of opposition and in ear of refs like he used to. He needs to believe in himself more and assert himself. Good fitness, good ball winner, and fairly decent in oppositions half. Dribbling and passing in confined spaces not his forte. Great news he's with us for longer.

Wonder if the club could look to make him captain or at least vice to try and get some of that belief in him.

Eh? He always is in the ear of the ref hence why he's just served a ban!

Yeah, he is, I don't think he is as obvious as somebody like Mitrovic, who runs the length of the pitch to scream in the refs face, but if he's near the ref, you can see him talking.

Coming from someone who was adamant that we should have kept Biamou on rather than signing Gyokeres - hahaha.

When looking at our striking options for the following season I didn't include Gyokeres as he was a loan player. Pretty straightforward really.

And I was happy when we signed him permanently (whereas plenty others weren't).

Yes.

This thread is about Eccles though, we can dig up yours and Sick Boys comments on him if you want to play that game.

No one wants to read this shit. Bore off.

I'm happy to have been proven wrong. I was apprehensive about the length of his last contract after his injuries but glad to have been proven wrong.

It's still nowhere near as bad as some of your takes though.

So if you make a bad take it's a good thing and you're happy but if someone else makes a bad take it's embarrassing. Ha, sums you and your buddy up perfectly.

Anyway, moving on.

There was talk of PL clubs watching him last season so this should guarantee a decent sum if he does leave or price him out of a move.
