Aaron Lennon

works hard which is bare minimum you'd expect but not good enough for top 4 or even top 6 team. hopefully flog him to likes of stoke or southampton.

Wonder if the role he's been asked to play is affecting his game, more of a Pienaar role? (if only)

...even when he's on the bench you don't think he can make a difference if he comes on.

I know people have different opinions about players but I don't know what people are looking at to say he has played well,he has worked hard but surely that's a given,it's then the extra comes into it..which has not got.

I like the lad, but there's no denying he was poor today, his touch was way off

Not being funny mate honest what is it you like about him,I get the fact he works hard sometimes,but on the ball mate he falls well short.

I was very surprised he came out for the second half... and I'm guessing he was too !

He can't complain that he hasn't been given a fair chance. Frozen out at the start of the season but has had plenty of opportunities in the last month or so and hasn't delivered anything memorable.

He's not good enough really.

As an orthodox winger he leaves a fair bit to be desired, but he has a place to play in a squad.

I think he's more useful when he cuts inside a bit and he's also useful when we're playing the "better" teams because he can protect the full back much better than most of our other options.

I don't see him as a regular starter, but he's nowhere near as gash as some make out.

Works hard, always, but he was dire today. Nothing went right for him

Seems to be more of a defensive winger.

One of a dozen draining the Everton FC of a wage that need moving on.

And therein lies the problem WB, like Cleverley, Deulofeu, Gibson, and Kone, realistically, he's just a squad player and right now, we need to reduce their numbers and replace with genuine starters.

I have always been impressed how Aaron closes and pressures the opposition at pace, i understand he maybe good enough for us going forward, problem today was it went badly and you could almost see him start to give up, having said that he plugged on. gutted for the lad really, he seems a smashing lad.

Is he being asked to be more of a defensive winger though? Always remember him (when he got a game) for Spurs, he was all about pace, bombing forward, things that seem to be lacking from his game lately. He seems to spend most of the time dropping back covering for Coleman.

 

[ToffeeTim]

The worst player on the park by some margin today
