@TomClisham Feel like we have no creativity without Wright. But we can’t score without Taylor.

@LaticsBase I mean it probably is but Taylor is just that goalscorer we need , not sure wright is as essential as a player

❓Latics fans, you get the choice to sign one of these in the summer. Who you picking? #wafc

@TomClisham Fair enough. Thought it would be closer.

@LaticsBase This is like asking would you rather shag Maya jama or Susan Boyle

@PaulAshwor34515 I think everybody would

@LaticsBase I’d like both lol

@PaulAshwor34515 I know. This is just a hypothetical situation.

@LaticsBase We get Wright free as he’s out of contract

🗣️ Gary Caldwell on if the #wafc players have shown accountability: “The players have been amazing since I’ve came in. They have took a lot of information on board. They’ve shown a real willingness to listen, an effort on the training pitch and matchday’s. I think we’ve shown a lot of quality and we’ve picked up some points. “I think we’ll be even better and that’s why our focus is on progressing and making sure that we as a team get better every game from now j til the end of the season and pick up points along the way. “Then at the end of the season we can assess the season as a whole, as a club. Obviously, I can assess the period thay I’ve came in and how ever impacted the squad, how we’ve changed, what we’ve done well and what we can do better moving into next season.” [BBC]

🗣️ Gary Caldwell on what #wafc can expect from Exeter City: “A really difficult game. A team that is fighting for their life, a team that has stayed in League One for a number of seasons now and it’s not something that they’re used to in their history. So they’ll be doing everything they can to make sure that they win the game. “I signed every player, or I resigned every player that’s at that club. Pretty much every staff member I brought into the club. So I have a really close connection with all those people, it will be great to see them all. I’m not sure they’ll want to see me, but it’ll be great to see faces that you’ve known and had success with before and after the game. “But, in Football, I think we’ve all had it where we’ve moved club’s, you have to be professional, I have a job to do for Wigan. It’s a club I’ve had a connection with before and had to play against Wigan. It was always difficult because you do have that feeling for the club. “But on Saturday, we need to win. We’ll be doing everything we can to try and do that.” [BBC]

🗣️Gary Caldwell on how concerned he is about #wafc discipline: “It’s something we need to try and change. It’s something i’ve spoke to the players about, about being disciplined and when you have a booking, standing on your feet and defending properly and doing everything you can to stay on the pitch. “Like I said on Tuesday, over the course of a season, they say that the ref’s decisions and the little things that go against you even themselves out across the season. If that is the case then we should have loads of luck in the next period of games… “I feel like nine minutes [added time at Barnsley] was a crazy number to go up. I think Sky have an influence on that in that moment. “So there’s loads of little things that frustrate me, but like I said after the [Barnsley] game to the players we have to control what we can control. That is discipline and staying on our feet.” [BBC]

🗣️ Gary Caldwell on unavailabilities for #wafc vs Exeter: “Callum’s [Wright] a big miss. That’s the disappointment of a soft red card, it affects us in the game, but also the next game. But the players have come through it, [Barnsley game] there is no fresh injury worries. “Carra’s [James Carragher] been training this week and is available for contention. Joe Hungbo has recovered from that knock. He couldn’t quite get out there on Tuesday night, but he’s trained fully today.”

🚨BREAKING: James Carragher will be available for selection this weekend against Exeter City. #wafc [@WigToday]

Wigan have won three of their last four home league games (L1), one more than in their prior 10 matches (D2 L6). Making the Brick a fortress again. 🏰 #wafc

🚨🔙 Wigan Athletic have won the ninth most points from losing positions in Sky Bet League One. #wafc [@LowerTiers]

🗣️ Gary Caldwell on the Callum Wright challenge for #wafc: “I think the referee would have gave loads of yellow cards if both of them [Wright’s fouls] are yellow cards. He should have gave loads of yellow cards in the game. “For me it’s consistency and they have to get better, they have to try and learn. But again, they don’t want to talk. They book people in the technical area whenever they get any sort of criticism. “If that’s a yellow card, [Callum Wright yellow card] there should have been 20-30 yellow cards tonight. [BBC]

🗣️ Gary Caldwell #wafc: “It’s happened to us too many times this year. Referees making decisions thay go against us. I have to say it but we can’t control that “Something needs to change. But over the course of the season it will go right for you at some points, so I’m expecting a lot of luck in the next nine games and a lot of decisions to go for us.”

🗣️ Gary Caldwell on #wafc regrouping and going again on Saturday: “In a three game week where you can go through that week without getting beat is really important. Playing at home, [on Saturday] we’ve been very good at home and we have to focus on now, recovering and preparing for another big game. “If we could pick up seven points this week it would be a brilliant return. We take the [Barnsley] game for what it is. We don’t get overly frustrated with decisions that we can’t change, and we regroup and focus on Saturday.”[LaticsTV]
