Quoted from GrimRob


He did underachieve a bit as a player IMHO. He joined Everton, one of the best teams in the country, at the age of 21 and won a Championship medal in his first two seasons. He then joined Forest (which was a step down) but he wasn't a regular in the team at the City Ground and eventually left and spent most of his career and Watford and Middlesborough. I bet when he signed at Goodison when he was 21 he'd have expected a bit more. He played for England U-21 but never got a first team cap.


Better than anything we are producing now Rob, what would we give to have a youngster good enough to go to Everton, Notts Forest, Middlesboro and Watford play for England u21s and be a failure

If a player has not got in him to score goals then no amount of coaching will get him to score. Now if a player has a certain amount of goalscoring in him then he can be improved to score more . Unfortunately ours haven’t got it .
