[Albion] Jack Hinshelwood [9/4/24: new deal to 2028]

[pasty]

He said in the interview he probably intended to go bottom left. A nice honest lad too . Nice to see how hard he hit it, no stopping that.

I actually groaned when he first hit it as I thought he’d skied it into row z

 

[dazzer6666]

Yup, very decent keeper had time to see the shot coming, but was powerless to do very much about it

Must be academy teaching - Ferguson often does the same. Just ****ing leather it on target

 

[portslade seagull]

Without meaning to put a jinx on him he is going to be very special. Reminds me of Fat Frank

 

[The Colonel]

He’ll be wasted as a RB in RDZs current system IMO - he’s clearly a box to box FB but how do we use that position in De Zerbi’s DNA? That’s usually LB’s/Pervis’s job while the RB stays a bit deeper - perhaps using Baleba as a sweeper to protect the CBs so we have a box to box on each side? Alternatively if we can hang on to him long enough he could easily be a central midfielder replacement for Gross.

I agree with your view of what RDZ has done with us to date, but do we only keep our right back a bit deeper because that suits the players he inherited (i.e. Veltman)? If he was building a squad from scratch, maybe RDZ would buy two box to box full backs? In which case your Baleba plan could be a good one. We haven't yet seen Hinshelwood and Pervis start together as full backs, when they do that'll probably tell us what RDZ's ultimate philosophy is.

Another excellent performance from Hinshelwood, playing like he's a seasoned PL professional.

 

[El Turi]

He is looking better every match at the moment.

 

[Bodian]

He was directing the play for the last five minutes of that game. Loved it when he charged back and refused to let the ball go out for a throw to us - he wanted to win.

 

[Rogero]

Great game and only aged 18.

 

[Mustafa II]

WHAT a young talent.

 

[SeagullsoverLondon]

He is looking better every match at the moment.

Totally agree.
Another really assured performance, ending up in another position, but looking at home wherever he plays

 

[Hendrax]

Superb from Jack. The run of games is doing him wonders.

This the reason why I think ferguson should be getting as many minutes as possible. His goals per minutes played stat is up there with the best in the league.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Not inconceivable now that when Veltman is fit, Hinsh challenges Gilmour for a place in centre mid. And i'm a big Gilmour fan. He's certainly 3rd choice in my view

Billy has been immense. His default setting (like Gross) is excellent rather than average with good games.

Hinsh is going to be an England mainstay.

 

[kelvinnewman]

I genuinely wonder if Hinsh will stay as right back now at least for this season

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Great moment from Hinsh when Buonanotte lost the ball in the second half. Jack motioned for him to chase back and not dwell on losing it. Great to see a youngster taking that responsibility.

 

[chrisg]

Another 13 appearances ever, and Dwayne pays up his bet.

 

[WhingForPresident]

He is definitely going to be keeping some first reamers out when we have a full squad. What a gem.

 

[Farehamseagull]

He is incredible. I’m stunned by how good and consistent he is for one so young, inexperienced and playing out of position.

We have some very talented teenagers but I think he could be the best of the lot. And he’s one of our own!

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Superb! Love seeing the confidence of these youngsters grow. Comparisons to Gross are obvious but he is seventeen (17) years younger.

It's just so fantastic to see, completely agree with all of this!

You could see a world where, with a large helping of good luck, he becomes the next Dunk (long serving club legend that is, not imperious centre back)
