Has Wayne Thomas Paid for Himself?

Everyone thought £1m was waaaaay too much cash for WT when he signed two and a half years ago, but this season he has...

 

Scored a goal against Charlton in the JPT in a 2-1 win.

Scored the winning penalty in the next round against Norwich.

Scored a goal against Ipswich in a 2-1 win, which gave us a wedge of prize money and a sell out game against Pompey in the next round.

 

Surely, that's got to add up to £1m. Obviously it's not all about Thomas, but it kind of reminds me of Killer scoring at Maine road a few years ago. Last game of the season and lifted us from 11th to 8th and earned us an extra £1.5m.

Semi ?? Who ?

 

Thomas is looking great at RB to be fair, solid at this level, however i do agree i don't think he will do well against a pacey winger, but we will see.

 

The bloke is an animal, and built like a sh*thouse but somehow fails to be dominant enough for me.

 

As long as he doesn't find his way back into the middle i will be ok.

I'm assuming he means Otsemebor.

 

Before the transfer window opened it was thought of as a nailed on cert that Thomas would be leaving, there were even reports that his solicitor used the arguement that he would be moving to a Northern based club in June as a reason why he shouldn't lose his licence when up in court on a speeding charge.

 

However, given the fact we have a lot of cup tied defenders and two huge cup games coming up against MK and Pompey I think thoughts of moving him, and his admitidly too high for a L1 player wages, on have been shelved.

I bloody hope Utaka isn't still there, he'll be far too good for our defence. Have been impressed with Thomas at RB this season and would like to see him stay there.

 

I believe he also put in the cross for Lallana's goal at Charlton away? Hardly as significant as the things mentioned in the OP I know, but they all count.

He is built lke a brick outhouse but he's also very quick, maybe not quick enough for utaka but i wouldn't suprised. It's not often he's beaten in a straight forward foot race. Skillwise though he'd never life with utaka imho. Mind you a threat to kick him up in the air so that he's not fit to transfer anywhere else could be a good tactic. :-)

Utaka must be the biggest pile of s*** at that club, he's terrible. Why are people worried about him? My Skate supporting mate says he's the worst player they've got, absolutely no composure, just pace

Thomas is a funny one. Personally havent really seen him do a lot wrong this season. If anything, has looked solid each and every time. Gets a rough deal from a few no doubt but rb, with murty & him, is now sold! James doesn't even figure. At CB, id even say no problem. 100% man! good type to have around....

On the flip side, we've got Antonio. Could cause more than a few problems.
