Normally managers would say we don’t discuss other clubs players but Conor definitely indicated to me he’s a player he would like to bring in .
As a straight up loan. Id rather go for the man u lad we were linked to Williams as he is coming off a promising loan in L2 and a good pre season with Man U. But that would obviously just be a straight loan. If the article we saw is right and he's leaving Southampton permanently, then id be happy to see Ballard here and would prefer than over a loan as he'd be our asset to develop and improve. He's not had the best few loans, but he has talent and a really impressive goal record at youth level. Id trust Conor and the staff to be able to bring the best out of him and build his confidence back up.
