Happy with this. In a back 4 with a winger in front of him he can still be great for us IMO, I think he will be a squad player for us but capable of coming in and doing a job when needed

Hmmm. Not a signing I'd have made. Decent back up in case of injury or suspension, I suppose, just as long as he's not too expensive.

Experience will be vital IMO
Slade won't allow him to be exposed like he was a few times under MB
Gets a hard working winger in front of him and BD will be fine

Class player at this level

From what I saw of him he was very fit for a 35 year old and certainly had more quality on the ball and was a better footballer that Mills. Got exposed in the wing back as you'd expect though.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Still a class act at this level. Bignot completely exposed him when he played him wing back, together with injury and Zak Mills' good form it was a frustrating season for him. But playing in a structured set up he'll be an asset, vastly experienced and got a great set piece on him too. Based on no knowledge whatsoever I'd imagine he was maybe offered reduced terms, so a good move all round.

I'm content with this, he's an experienced solid enough pro, still technically good and given space he can deliver a cracking cross, I'm happy with him here for another year.
