I haven't seen much of him tbh mate but he always seems to be on the scoresheet...which is a great trait to have.
Yeah I’ve thought the same tbf. Think he would struggle physically against championship defenders. Would be good to see how he would do on loan in league 2 or national league
Max Thompson wasn‘t mentally sharp enough to make it in my opinion. I would say that Gardiner is. That’s not to say that he is ready yet but that he can keep on learning and improving.

Watched him a few times and from his performances he deserves to be ahead of Semedo imo

Well, there you go mate. Wonder why he's not getting a look in then?

Dunno tbh he is slight build so maybe it’s down to that with the physical challenge of the championship, he’s technically far better than hemir from what Iv seen and seems to have a knack of been in right place at right time. Don’t think he’s had luck with injuries so hopefully he keeps fit and given a chance

He introduced me to this place . He used to post until the very day Harry signed for us and has never been back on since.
Wise move.

At 20 years old he ain't getting any younger... get him in the line up

He was sharing a room in the digs with John Barnes I think.
G.Taylor picked him up from the station in his Jag when he went down there.

Elton John wasn’t it?
Anyway…too little in the end and overshadowed by Gary Breeds who was the same age but I remember playing footy with him (a few years older than me) and nobody could get the ball off him.
Related by marriage to the Gardiners

Whenever I've seen the U21s, Ellis Taylor has always stood out. He doesn't look ready for the Championship either, could see him having a good lower league career though.
I don't think it's like previous regimes at the club, if players are good enough they'll get a chance, and I trust the set up we have.

I’d personally give rushyn 3 or 4 games, 90 mins not 60, give him a proper run of games, I think gardiner deserves to be on the benchAt 20 years old he ain't getting any younger... get him in the line up

Rushyn needs a good run out and yes I agree about Harry getting a place on the bench would be nice.

He struggled to get games at South Shields last season.
I think people forget the gap between under 21s football and Championship is massive.
But been told by someone at the club he's probably not going to make at Sunderland like alot of under 21s players at the club, they are mostly fillers as we learnt our lesson from the 2 years they didn't win a game to have players decent for that level.
A reminded 2 'wonderkids'/ at Boro who did well in the 23/21 in past a few years have since been binned and are at West Auckland and Stockton
