Champions League Defender Signed

[marky No.1]

Welcome Scott Wooton, great pedigree and a quick bit of necessary business done

[Gone_Shrimping]

Yes , a very good CV and a few seasons at Championship level as well as League 1.

[Little Shrimp]

A good bit of Championship and L1 experience, which is positive.

Some mixed reviews from fans, although seems like he had a decent spell with Wigan last season. Also, I think as a fan base we know better than most after last season not to be too concerned by what other fans are saying about players we sign!

I've just had a chat to a Leeds fan about him. They don't rate him, although the fan I was speaking to mentioned the caveat that he often got played out of position at right back and looked quite uncomfortable there.

[Andy D]

Must have had good Schooling and looking at his CV no reoccurring injury concerns.

picked up on this

On 31 July 2015, Wootton was given the number 4 shirt for the 2015–16 season. On 12 August 2015, Wootton started in a new role under Uwe Rösler as a defensive midfielder

must be a good footballing defender to play that role.
