Quote: St pete "So what can saints expect from shenton?
Is he fast?
Can he beat a man?
Is he a wingers centre?
I know he's good in defence, I hope he turns out to be top class, this country needs a top class centre for the world cup.'"
Yes
He can but lacks the power to go through his marker so has to round him which is much harder with the limited space available these days
Not particularly IMO, certainly no Lyon/Gidley and Atkins is better in this department.
One other thing, he literally can't kick....looks as though he'll fall over every time he tries.
As you know he is great defensively, one of the best I've ever seen, not just for his tackling but his reading of the opposition's attacking plays.
Give him time to settle because he hasn't always seemed to be the most confident of players but in the unlikely event you're not satisfied with your purchase we'll gladly accept return.
