Oh, I don't know. Though I've only seen the home games this season, he always seems to try and get stuck in defensively. Not particularly good at the defensive side of things which is perhaps understandable.

Quoted from MuddyWaters


For all he does with the ball, he does very little without it. Waiting for the ball to come to you isn't good enough.


I'm surprised you say that as I've been pleasantly surprised how many times he's actually won us the ball.

How can you say that he works hard, he wins back the ball when he's got no right to and tracks back  more often than not. Give the lad some credit it's still very early days in his career.

Fully agree, I could name several players that put in far less effort trying to chase the ball down and make tackles.

I didn't say anything about tackling, i said that he waits for passes to come to him rather than looking for space

Stop doing all the above and we might start winning more games.

We have been our own worse enemy up to now.

To use the tennis phrase.... unforced errors

If I had a quid for every time I've said this to my mates at matches I'd be a rich man... might even have enough to buy out JF
