I think they suffered a little due to the shoddy laces he used...they always came untied at those crucial moments which required his commanding captaincy skills. But this season, such distraction should be ameliorated by his now wearing slip-on boots.Have we ever had those words written in that order on these pages before.
An honest and decent enough player who has been fairly consistent until fairly recently, but a good captain would have been telling some home truths and kicking some butt after some of the dire performances we have witnessed for the last few seasons (since the end of Martinez first season imo). I think his leadership qualities are conspicuous by their absence.
