This phrase is used a lot on here in the last few weeks with assumption that Hughton had all the players in shackles and Potter would take them off. Is this simply he's known to be more attack minded thus "shackles off"
But what does "with the shackles off" actually mean for a player like...
Just pointing out what happened last year. Draw your own conclusions. He might well play 3 at the back but afaik he's said nothing about his likely preferred formation next season.
He's only ever made two appearance for the first team, in the League Cup in the last 2 seasons, 14 minutes v Barnet and last year , 1 minute v Southampton.
Connolly has played 22 minutes in L1 and is still only 19. He's almost certainly going to be loaned out again this season instead of being on the fringes of a premier league squad not getting any game time.
