Or alternatively, one of the few players that we've got that never stops running, always wants the ball, never ever hides, and usually tries to at least look for a decent pass even if it doesn't come off (yesterday he put in a great cross for our goal and also threaded a great pass thorough to Doucoure late in the 2nd half)
But yeah OK, let's just write him off because he's not beaten the first man on a few late corners yesterday after coming in and playing pretty much every game alongside a hideously low-quality, stretched squad of players at an absolute circus of a club where the chance of actually "enjoying yourself" (as a player or a fan!) are fleeting and absolutely minimal!
Is he prime Zidane? No, but he's a talented young player who has shown signs of developing into a much better one if given the chance in a less fraught situation and with support from the staff and the fans. Him and McNeil particularly look like they are running on fumes for the last few games but it seems like that we don't have the strength in depth to rest them - that's not his fault.
It's not just aimed at you, but the negativity and kneejerking among our fanbase is absolutely hideous, and it's not going to help us get to where we want to be one bit.
He was shite yesterday, sideways, sideways, backward sideways…
Get him off the corners too…
Has a go at fans for ‘booing’ but is consistently bang average or below.
Needs to up his game.
They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.
