Good lad. I thought he's done okay in the last few matches he's been in. He's looking a little more like his old self again. I do think if we bring him in, he got have a good partnership on the right with Bacuna.

That's exactly the attitude we want, and need, at the club.  No sulking, no whinging just buckle down.  Couldn't see N'Zog or Hutton giving an interview like that.

I found this article quite refreshing

Lowton blames himself for his poor form


Great stuff, attitude absolutely spot on.

Had a comment from an Arsenal fan in my office saying how good it was to see a player with this attitude, he really wants Lowton to do well for us now.

Great attitude Matty, lets hope you return soon to what we all know you to be capable of.

After the Curtis Davies experience though, I get worried when I hear a frank and honest admission from a player because of the potential for it to become a stick to beat them with later.

We wouldn't have beaten Cardiff without him. Knocking it onto Bacuna to run at their defence for the free-kick and also his instinctive header across goal for Kozak which completely threw the Cardiff defence.

There is nothing in that to beat him with later.  Just a frank admission that his standards have not been up to what we, and he, should expect.

I thought it was very refreshing to see ML celebration  with joy when we scored recently. I like the lad

Yes, and celebrating the goal of the player who's taken his place.

I've read this morning (albeit on twitter) that Mrs. Lowton is homesick and wants to move back up north. He's supposedly commuting to Brum, hence why he's fallen out of favour with Rab C Lambert.
Not sure of how genuine this is, if true it's amazing how Mrs. Lowton wasn't homesick when Matt was signing a new contract for more money.

That sounds ridiculous. What if Matty ever won a move to Spain for mega bucks?

I think Lowton should be brought back in, Bacuna is dangerous from set pieces but he can be a bit of a plodder by times.

Lowton is the best crosser of the ball at the club and reads the game very well.
I wonder if Benteke's missing him?

I would bring him back and get Bacuna further forward, probably in place of Weimann.

There's more on this on the other site if you go on his thread.

T be honest Sheffield isn't that far away. I'd have thought they could settle in somewhere in between fairly easily. Say Derbyshire
