Has just signed a new 5 year contract with Wolves. Decent contract for the lad.

Blimey - he's in the market for a new house and car then. Good luck to the lad

They clearly rate him. Wouldn't be surprised if they recall him in Jan and send him somewhere he'll be first choice.

Wow fair play to him.

Not overly surprising though as he's only 20 and clearly a big talent.

Very different. The defensive side of his game has come on leaps and bounds, he’s significantly worse in the air too, but you can’t help but feel we’re a much more potent attaching force with him in the team.

If we start with ‘the box’ again, I’d start him there.

I don't agree. I like Giles, but i feel that for the moment at least McCallum is better defensively and even going forward I think he often delivers more. McCallum has a goal or two in him but Giles never looks confident in front of goal.

Slightly surprised Wolves have given Giles such a long contract and disappointed too as I would have liked us to sign him permanently as he undoubtedly has a lot of potential.

Not really... We just re-sign Stokes & Haynes.

If Jobello and/or Hilßner can get match fit, that might become a lot more viable.

I think we need to write off Hilßner like something you buy off ebay when coming home after a 12-hour session in the pub.

I wonder if this has had any bearing on the selection for the position or that we may have been hoping to steal him further on.

His free kick for the U23s the other day was quality. Obviously has ability, question is can we ever get him up to the required fitness levels.
