I feel sorry for scotty, he hasn't had a look in since green came in, and I think he is better by a mile. Got pace and skill. I think if he doesn't get a look in for the rest of the season, he'll be gone in the summer, which is a shame as he is an academy product!

Supaclive claimed he was leaving in january and we were getting two monster signings
Not skilful, but he is quicker, fitter and harder working than Green (which would probably be why Pritchard moved to RM yesterday without Wagstaff on the bench) Both get goals and assists.
Green much more likely to pick out a pass or cross, which is even more important with Stephens missing.
Still don't think there's much between them, both probably need to improve decision making, reading of the game etc to step up to the Championship.
If he goes will be interesting to see who we replace him with.
Having said that, dont understand two central midfielders on the bench and would replace either Russell or Stephens with Wagstaff.
If Waggy could get his end product right he could be awesome. I am sure that he works on it in training but its something that is not reflected on the pitch.
Green on the other hand has a great cross but lacks pace over anything but a very short distance. That said unless waggy sorts his crosssing its Greens ability we need, although Owlstalk have a thread for Green all of his own.
"although Owlstalk have a thread for Green all of his own."
Really? What are they on about? - I can't be assed to go there and put up with all that nonsense
Either you're a complete wind up or you need to go to specsavers!!!!!
It would be great to keep him as a squad player because we know what he offers and he is still young. I have a feeling he might move to play more games. . .maybe a one month loan would be useful.
11/12 Green 2 goals 6 assists (8 so far)
10/11 Wagstaff 8 goals 6 assists (14 in total)
09/10 Sam 4 goals 10 assists (14 in total)
Not much between them when it comes down to actual goals and assists. Green's clearly playing in the best team, Sam had no goalscorers up front while Wagstaff played in the worst team. All have a pretty decent (but not always reliable) end product at this level.
Sam and Green may be a bit more enigmatic, but they were/are players that you feel can make thing happen. Waggy never really opens teams up with a moment of skill or vision, he tends to finsih off moves others have started and I think it's important to have that spark of individual brilliance in your team.
Yesterdays free-kick aside, Jacko is largely a solid player albeit one who chips in with a weighty share of goals. Likewise Hollands and probably Pritchard too. Russell and Hughes are both solid but without the goal return. Without Stephens, Green is the only one who you feel may produce that killer pass/cross that creates the chance to win a tight game and I think that is why he gets the nod ahead of Waggy right now. It's all about balancing the side.
Shame they don't make it 7 subs in that league - cannot see any benefit of limiting teams to 5
Promises so much but alas, has failed to deliver when given the chance this season.
Green is the best crosser at the club and is more skilful than Waggy. On the other hand Waggy works much harder without the ball and tracks back and supports the backs, whereas Green doesn't and this has caused us problems at times.
In a game where we're playing good football and are relatively comfotable I favour Green. In a game where we need to work hard and defend I prefer Waggy.
It'll be interesting to see how we do if Stephens and Green both start. The two games they did we drew and lost (to Stevenage). I'm sure they need games but both probably benefit from energy alongside them (e.g. Wagstaff/Hughes/Pritchard).
Wouldn't write off Wagstaff eventually stepping up to the Championship but he needs regular football. Doubt he'll get it here. Will be through him improving with experience rather than becoming a creative player, which he obviously is not.
