It is hard to understand because the whole idea of being elite is being able to consistently replicate what you’re great at, week in, week out. Using two matches 12 months apart seems a bit of a stretch to claim someone has those skills and it’s not just a bit of a fluke.

He is excellent at pressing himself and at times looks excellent when put under pressure when he was the ball (press resistant). The instinctive stuff he looks very good at at times. It’s when the games controlled and he needs to play positionally or be disciplined that he looks out of sorts.

Funny player really, could maybe go either way but I have a feeling the stuff he’s lacking you can teach, the stuff he has you can’t necessarily. His football IQ might never get there though.

Another who really should be a squad player at best, game just bypasses him at times.

He already is that squad player. For me there are question marks about whether he should even be that.

 

[mccole]

He needs some confidence in himself.

Really disappointed he never took his opportunity but he is a young player who hasn't played many games.

He has the attributes and if he applies himself, it will come good for us and him.

One bad-ish game isn't the end of the World.

Let's stop trying to find negatives and scapegoats

 

[MikeH72]

Rohl starts ahead of him.

 

[roy vernon]

He has potential, having said that, he gives away far too many free kicks, is often clumsy in his tackling and makes some very sloppy passes due to, what appear to be, lapses in concentration. I wouldn't rule him out of developing and into a decent player, for now though, the drop off in centre midfield when he has to replace Garner, is noticable.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Only has ~20 months left on contract, it'll tell a tale if we offer him an extension.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Needs to add a bit of intensity to his game.

Which is why I didn't say he was elite but that he did some elite things???

Really he gets booked most games for me not a defensive midfielder .... better in the heart of our midfield ....

I don't mind him, but see him as a squad player - not one I'd start regularly in the league if other options are available.
