Smithies for me.
smithies is a good championship keeper, but there are plenty of others about the same level.
same goes for Morrison.
at his best Tomlin is very good, but until he can put it together for a while season then he's not even close to being the best in his position in the league.
There are not “plenty of others” at the same level as Smithies and Morrison at this level at all. They are easily one of the best players for their position in this division. Put it this way, there’s not many sides, if any, that wouldn’t want them in their team.Quote:

Again, most teams would love to have that kind of creativity. 8 goals last season and 6 of them were goal of the month candidates. His 2 free kicks against sheff weds and West Brom in particular were Messi-seque. His goal against Leeds, the goal where he gave the Charlton keeper the eyes, One touch, rolling the defender and bottom corner v Luton, jeez, if he’s not even close to being one of the best in his position there must be some players on the Championship this season.
Correction, 19 goal involvements, got one in the play offs too.Quote:

Just Smithies and Tomlin for me and, not sure yet but hoping Moore could be
Can't really argue with OP looking through our line up.
Morrison, as frustrating as he can be is solid and old fashioned and reliable.
Smithies is solid, not too clued up on others to compare but from what I've seen personally is definitely up there.. Definitely.
Tomlin wouldn't be here if he did 90 mins, says it all. Guy is class.
No there aren't. Smithies and Morrison would get into pretty much every team in the divisionQuote:

Also, a last season's Lee Tomlin equivalent who was not in his thirties would probably cost in the region of ten to fifteen million pounds.Quote:

Me too, I think he is about to burst onto the scene, he has everything required to be a great player, and is about to settle at the right club at the right age at the right time.Quote:

That Morrison, Smithies and Ralls would get in most Champ sides? They still would. Tomlin, too. We have major weaknesses, that four aren’t it.Quote:
