Linked with Sheffield Wednesday. I'd say upper L1/lower Championship is about his level.

youtu.be/y7j4xg-fHdkSome goal. I think if you made a compilation of Vaulks goals you'd think he only scores from distance!

Weird player, like a budget Jonjo Shelvey. Has moments of brilliance with great technique, but then messes up every other simple pass and touch.

I'm not sure he's international standard but he's one I'd want in my team and I'm happy he's got international caps when he does the fantastic work off the pitch for local charities/community work etc.

I would say so.
I'd say most likely central midfielders to be called up in the next camp are Ramsey, Ampadu, Morrell, Levitt and Jordan James at the moment.
Any injuries to them I'd say Vaulks definitely has to be within a call up. Can't think of anyone else other than maybe Tom Lowery, Josh Sheehan and potentially Charlie Savage. Maybe Woodburn too?
Matt Smith fallen of the face of the earth. Don't even think collectively he's played a total of 90 minutes yet this calendar year.

That is a good point about Matty. I didn't realise how little he played, as most of his appearances were 10'-20' cameos.
With Levitt now being out (possibly for the season) surely Will is nailed on for the 23.

He's had a scream and shout on twitter about how his disappointment in not being included in the current squad.

He's had a scream and shout on twitter about how his disappointment in not being included in the current squad. I don't think that's a completely fair interpretation. He recognises his playing style is probably why other players in League One are being picked ahead of him. He's disappointed, and given he was named in many squads in the lead up to two tournaments I can understand his frustration at missing out. But he's honest that he doesn't expect a call up |

Yeah I don't think there's anything wrong with the interview. I get the feeling there is some bitterness there that he's doing his best to bottle, but it seeps out a bit when talking about mid-table L1 players who play the same position making the squad ahead of him (I wonder who he's talking about!). I don't think anyone genuinely believes he should be in the squad ahead of Morrell. As others say, he's respectful throughout.
I'm not bothered either way really re whether he's left out altogether or in the squad to provide something off the pitch. I would be very concerned if we were relying on him on the pitch though. I'd much prefer that we change the system or brought someone like Savage in who I suspect would be a much better fit stylistically.

Ironic, because for a lot of the season, a mid-table L1 midfielder was exactly what Vaulks was.

I reckon there's no more than 12 - 15 players nailed on for a squad place should we get to Germany. There must 30, may be more, players either just in the squad, just fallen out of the squad or on the fringes who could make it with a good run of form next season. That includes the like of Will Vaulks, but he needs to be sure he's playing regularly and performing. Not sure the style is much of a negative factor, being a midfielder is probably a positive one.

He's covering all the bases by saying 'Pagey' can choose who he wants but it's also a dig because he clearly believes he's better than Morrell and thinks he should be included in the squad, it's good that he wants to be part of our team but I doubt Page will see it that way, that's how I read the interview.

I think a lot of people are over-reacting to this interview
On the Morrell point he probably does think he's better. Footballers, especially ones who've had a route like Vaulks, are supremely confident in ability and he's played at a higher level than him for a few years including in a Championship playoff team

Morrell is better and I don't think many people would put Vaulks ahead of himself. It's okay for him to have confidence in himself but at the end of the day if everyone is objectively picking Morrell that says it all

Feel for him and it's a matter of opinion whose better and whose not.
But the next few cycles he's not competing against Morrell for a place. It will be the likes of Terry Taylor, Jordan James, Dylan Levitt and Omar Taylor Clarke. Hopefully one of those steps up and would likely replace Joe in a year or two.
With the lack of suitable options beyond Allen, Ramsey and Ampadu for the last 7 years (Post EURO 2016) in centre mid. He stepped in and stepped up and proven he's up to it. Luck, lack of options and right place, right time did come into that. Don't think Morrell barring injury or serious nosedive in career would ever not be called up now as we have effectively groomed and moulded a player to become a dependable international level.
Hopefully Joe gets a move himself and really cements it. Seen him linked to newly promoted Championship clubs.

Read the other day the above mentioned Terry Taylor being linked to a championship club but can't remember which one 🙂. On Will Vaulks at least he is upset at not getting in the squad which slows a desire to represent us. However I have long been singing the praises of Morrell so Vaulks will have to be patient. |

It's okay for him to have confidence in himself but at the end of the day if everyone is objectively picking Morrell that says it all But people should understand that rather than whinge when he shows confidence in his abilities and claim he's having a dig at other players. Not long ago Morrell was getting all kinds of stick on Twitter, people saying he wasn't good enough, Vaulks was better etc so it's a bit weird to see some of those same people leaping to Morrell's defence against nasty Will Vaulks They're different kinds of midfielders and do different things well, I think Morrell is more suited to how we play and that he was previously underrated by a lot of our fans but that doesn't necesarily mean he's streets ahead of Vaulks. On the "everyone is objectively picking Morrell" point that may be true of fans, but if I'm Vaulks I'd be pointing to my 5 seasons in the Championship and 2 League 1 promotion campaigns, something Morrell hasn't been a part of and would suggest inside football it's not quite that clear cut |

They are average players at best that is obvious to most, having said that some players can fit in to a team better than more skillful ones, and we are not blessed in that central area of the pitch except for Ramsey ,but his legs don't last ninety these days .
I understand Vaulks, being in the squad one minute then out the next he must be frustrated, but he's sealed his fate with Page by airing his frustrations, who's got his favourites and doesn't like players with attitudes, let's hope Vaulks is the only dissenter then.

But you can also have a tidy player who plays at the top end of League One but misses out on promotion narrowly for a few seasons, and in those situations the level doesn't tell the full story I think this just shows when you look at what they've both done at international level. Morrell on 34 caps and you could probably count his bad games on one hand - whereas Vaulks had 7 caps and aside from his debut never looked comfortable, or looked like contributing at that level. So I would say it is fairly clear cut despite their club careers |

Anyone who pulls a Wales shirt on and is committed I'm fully behind but if I have to choose between Morrell and Vaulks it's our number 16 every time.
