Giles! Weren't good enough for us in League 1, never mind this division. McCallum miles better player
There much i like about Giles but I don't agree that he's our most effective attacking player. A few good runs and crosses early on true, such as against QPR and Norwich, but since then he has been reluctant to go forward. Also his shooting is poor. There were a number of occasions when he should have scored but he missed or shot really tamely.
Dabo is much more effective going forward from wing back, and arguably McCallum too. And obviously Hamer and O'Hare are better going forward.
I feel Sheaf is becoming increasingly important and improving too and doubt he will be left out often. I really like Kelly but suspect it is either him or James.Most likely one of Giles or Sam, most of the time Giles. may also see Sheaf miss out occassionally when kelly is back as I'd like to see Kelly and james together and Sheaf's game isn't suited to playing more advanced IMO. Hamer's i think is.
It doesn't... Unless it is the Kassam Stadium... Dabo won't score.Depends what stats you use.
How about goals for example:
Hamer 4
O'Hare 2
McCallum 1
Giles 0
Dabo wasn't fit early on so that affects his stats.
Tend to agree. Think the step up has come a season too early for Giles. If he stays i would love to be proved wrong. Potentially he is a really good player.I would let Giles go back to Wolves and recall Mason. Then getting another attacking player on a free transfer if possible.

I wouldn’t send Giles back. He’ll start in the odd game where we go primarily attacking, as has been the case all season. He’s superior to Mason going forwards.
Can't believe we are even debating who is better out of Gikes and DaboIt doesn't... Unless it is the Kassam Stadium... Dabo won't score.
So which loan would you leave out of the match-day squad? Something has to give.
It will probably be Sheaf. Even if you leave one of Giles or McCallum out, they get injured 5 minutes in, who's going left wingback?So which loan would you leave out of the match-day squad? Something has to give.
There is another way... turn Sheaf into a permanent signing in this window. One less loan.

So equal games. Both 1 assist. McCallum one goal, Giles none.Chance creation/attacking Stats per 90 mins comparison.

Yeah i'll add them. I was really responding to Herts who said Giles wasn't an attacking threat, then used goals scored as the measure.Any defensive stats?????
But Giles creates more chances, puts in more crosses, and more or the ball in the opposition half. Not his fault if strikers/o'hare miss them.So equal games. Both 1 assist. McCallum one goal, Giles none.
And McCallum is much better defensively.
I was thinking when he signed it was reported dacosta could play both flanks.Dacosta

No one has disputed thay McCallum is better defensively, just that we shouldn't just discard Giles as he is one of most effective attacking outlets.

I think that is coincedental, Kelly came back at around the same time we changed our style of play and the quality of opponents changed dramatically for us. We started the season way too naively trying to play the football we did in league 1 in a league where the quality of opponent is so much better.Kelly has proven instrumental in terms of results and leadership.
With Wolves just giving Giles a 5 year deal can't see them allowing him to stay here if he's not starting the majority of games
They're likely to recall him and loan him to another Championship side where he's got more chance of game time
