You're not comparing apples with apples though vis a vis Summerfield and Vose.

Summerfield is an energetic, box-to-box midfielder who is a pretty good footballer but drops a clanger too often. Vose is one of the most naturally gifted players to grace "The BP" and can unpick a defence in seconds and beat a man with ease or deliver an inch perfect ball to a players feet but sadly lacks desire and can go missing in games. You could play both in a midfield of Comley, Summerfield and Vose but I'd personally like to see Comley, Summerfield and Osborne on Saturday.

Also I for one rate Summerfield quite highly. He was excellent at Notts County, Bolton and Plymouth and at home to Stevenage, and was also good at  home to Newport and at Luton, Mansfield and even Doncaster and I thought he played well until he got injured against Blackpool What that shows though is that by and large he is very good away but not so good at home. He was very ordinary against Morecambe, Crewe and Hartlepool and I can't remember him in any others.

Herts brought up Vose, I just said I thought Vose was the better more productive player.

No, I don't think Vose and Summerfield would make a very good pairing in midfield at all, the opposite in fact. In lieu of not seeing the new guys yet, I think Comely alongside Disley (for his experience alongside Comely) with Vose as the creative attacking midfielder behind the strikers, a much better midfield three.

I wouldn't say vose lacks desire I think he needs to be the conductor of the team with a summerfield and comley playing alongside him !!!

It's funny how most see Vose as a better player than Summerfield and would like to see him in a No10 role, yet both Hurst and Bignot gave way more game time to Summerfield and neither of them have tried Vose anywhere other than on the left. They are seeing something most fans are not.

I honestly don't think Vose is as good as some like to think he is.

Quoted from MarinerMal
But maybe with a better midfielder than Nolan we wouldn't have fallen so far of the pace after his arrival and wouldn't have finished lower than Braintree in the League. Nolan's best game were when he had Disley and Clay alongside him to do the job he couldn't/wouldn't do. Nolan wasn't a bad player he just wasn't a good player. Mediocre.

Yes I would play Vose over Summerfield, he's a better more creative player.


We where off the pace when he arrived to be honest. Who cares where we finished we got up, at that level Nolan was better than mediocre maybe not  world beater I agree.

Agree with Mariner93er about Vose

Occasionally he is outstanding, but every other game he's just a steady 6.5, maybe touching a 7, not enough goals or assists for me.

I would have liked to have judged Vose season to date if he had a run in mid field with the likes of McAlister doing so0me of the scrapping and pressing............. I just think he see's things that others in our squad don't and actually has the ability to execute what he sees.

He had a nice touch but most home games in which i saw him he didn't create much.
He gave the ball away a lot and left big holes in the midfield.
He played well at Wembley though but that was with Disley and Clay.
