He needed this loan 3 seasons ago. Think he’ll be a good player for saints not sure it’s best for us or him to come back he needs to be 1st choice at a club now not sure he could be for us.

Got completely fine
Not having a great time tonight. Started well going forward but absolutely non existent on Utd’s second.
I think that's being a tad kind, he got absolutely done by martial and at fault for their 2nd

It’s hard, because he’s talented - he’s just so slow and weak. Sometimes he seems almost apologetic going into challenges too

He is 23 years old and defends like he is 12 years old and has not improved from when he made his debut for us away at Newcastle.

He is only playing for Southampton as their usual right back Valery is dogshit of the highest order and the reason why saints fans were singing his praises. If he signs for Southampton I would put money on them signing a first choice right back as well and he will be back up.

I will also remind you he is nearly 3 years older then Max Aaron's just let that sink in.

Poch's handling of KWP was absolutely beyond baffling, neither playing him nor loaning him out when it was so clear he was a talent and needed games to develop further.

But now three years of his career have been wasted he just doesn't look good enough and at 23 he likely won't ever be.

A consistent premiership full back is either good at defending or good at going forward and if you happen to have both qualities you will be a top full back.

KWP has none of the above traits.

He should of loaned him out but championship teams don't usually like weak full backs so I don't know which team would of took that risk.

Youth watchers consistently say he was brilliant going forward but it looks like it's either been coached out of him or he's just completely shot for confidence to try. Either way it's a crying shame.

I don't think poch chained him up in the bathroom Jigsaw style.
He could've forced a move away if he wanted

He is a good dribbler but I have never seen anything from him that would suggest there is end product there.

Jay Dasilva one of the top young full backs that was head and shoulders above every player at his age group in this country is now a decent full back for Bristol City. Being a good player in your age group doesn't translate to senior football.

People's views on KWP have been blinded by the fact he has come through the ranks oh and Danny Murphy talking him up in a game last Sunday when his defending at the back post was abysmal.

Well we'll always have the hat trick of assists against Bournemouth.

He isn’t good enough it’s that simple really
The only reason he is talked about is because our main right back is also not very good. In the ideal world both wouldn't be at the club next season but I think Serge might be around for a season longer.

Have you really gone there?? I will give you the third goal as a decent pick out. As for the other two..what attacking quality did that show? He passed a ball sideways five yards.

I was being facetious.
