Would you Have Ben Watson Back??

[Bluehoop]

To get him back (and add Osbourne) we would have to shed (at least) 2 other loanees. So yes I'd have him back and perm 2 from Ikeme, Hill, Bent, Priskin for a speedy return home. Now THAT would be positive.

[NorwegianRanger]

No !!!

[Nodge70]

Bent's going back isn't he? Out for 4/5 weeks. No point keeping him is there?

[sirpiechucker]

Will he be played in his correct position?

Will he be played alongside another midfielder who knows what his role is and actually keeps to it?

Ben Watson before this season was one of the best central midfielders in this division hence why a Premiership club bought him. Played in his correct position he is better than any other midfielder at the club. His performances against Barnsley and Newcastle showed that.

i don't think we have the available personnel or the time (given the situation we're in) to fit him into our team and really get the best out of him. can only see him flourishing alongside mahon or rowlands, anyone else is a disaster.

[Rsonist]

Hogan is a funny one comes on as a sub and looks brilliant and everone says why doesn't he start. He starts and he is bloody useless!

^^ this is the sad truth.

[terry ball]

I think Quashie has disappointed, be surprised to see him play next few games to be honest.

Him and Hogan took the brunt of the Harford force at half-time

Where did this leak of very sensitive information come from? To me, this being in the public domain can be very damaging to a players confidence and team morale.
Imagine reading that on here if you was a player?

By the way, im not suggesting Paladini told you, as i'm not stupid enough to believe he is your only contact at the club

[StansMoles]

Although I would love Watson back, he is a good player, just because he did not do it in the short period he was here, that does not change. Apart from that, this is no way to run a football team transfer policy. It clearly demonstrates a need for a team manager making the calls. Not from a poll conducted amongst the supporters on a messageboard.

[stanistheman]

I was thinking about Watson on Tuesday whilst watching Quashie in his place against Ipswich and thinking he wasn't so bad afterall.

I often said QPR should extend his loan and was disappointed when he returned to Wigan. Whilst he was playing, apart from a few games here and there, QPR were not as bad as they have been since January.

He is clearly wasting his career at Wigan and should be looking to return to QPR or some other team, to kick start it again.

I agree, but what is his correct position. Would you play him alongside Faurlin or Buzsaky in midfield, neither or both?

Unless against the rules of loans ban it, it should be no problem in deciding who to send back really, Hill, Ikeme look crap and Bent is injured.

Borrowdale is better than Hill and if QPR sign Voltz, Connolly could always be used as a LB with Stewart in the centre if needed.

So Hill and Bent are the two most obvious choices to send back.

Ikeme can also go if Cerny is fit, I'd have Putnins on the bench.

So there is the answer to bringing in Watson and Osbourne.

[Dazzer1977]

Thrilled when we signed him. MUCH MUCH MUCH better than what we have. Give me him over QUASHIE any day of the week. Seemed to suffer some unfair abuse towards the end of the time he was here which I thought was unfair considering how the rest of the team was performing!

Agree 100% with all of that.

And they both fully deserved it. They were pathetic out there, I have seen more effort, desire, energy and even ability from players in a Sunday League pub team:anger:

[Morris]

Is he coming back?
