Czechlad Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 I thought he looked decent today. He will do fine in the championship. Could even help him become a consistent defender for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't trust him at all in the championship. If promotion is the aim next season he should be nowhere near this squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Has to leave ! He may play the occasional great game but for me he sums up the malaise of our club perfectly and all that's wrong with our supposed great academy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I will say this for him, I thought he played reasonably well yesterday. As the guy said last page, no matter if we want to or not, we're not going to buy 25 new players this summer, so yes, I'd probably keep him (though with teeth much more gritted than this time last year).

Swerbs Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Yesterday he played better than Okore's recent games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunnski Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 He's played well tonight and has been the leader at the back, I think he has gone backwards this season by having to take orders from Richards and I'd hope to see him as the leader at the back for us next season with Okore beside him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 decent goal as well though shoddy defending. a clean sheet too he probably has no idea what that feels like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) Once a chucklebrother always a chucklebrother Championship player at best but not good enough to get us promoted imo He will get outmuscled in that division like he has done whenever i see him play Edited March 25, 2016 by AshVilla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmarsha_926 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) Made one very good tackle on 56 minutes plays well when in a settled team which we are not Edited March 26, 2016 by lmarsha_926 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I like him. Our best CB and one of our better players, and always gives 100%. Needs to be leading the backline to give of his best. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted March 26, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted March 26, 2016 I like him too, but some of the performances this year have taken their toll on my fandom. Him and Okore next year is not the worst option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 The fact he has never nailed down a permanent start for us and he is now 25 tells its own story. I don't think he is PL grade CB and I don't buy the centre back matures later argument either. On his day he is a good player but as a few have said he is very inconsistent. Having said that I think he will do ok for us in the Championship if he focuses in games. Personally the couple of times in the last few years he has played as DM I think he has looked far better than at CB. He is actually quite a decent footballer especially when compared to say Baker who is an out and out stopper. Relieving him of some of his defensive duties helps him think a bit more about his game, IMO at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Too much of a headless chicken for me. Loses his concentration far too often, acts rash, a bit weak and doesn't read the game well enough. Still, there are other CB's at the club I see as more important getting rid off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
