    Despite the fancy stepovers he lacked end product and slowly drifted out of the game altogether.

    Doubt he will be given many more chances as he is no longer a youngster with promise, he is past that stage in his career.:mad:

    'Great' minds think alike!

    He looked like a small boy in a mens game and was totally out of depth.

    Didn't seem to try and get invovled really.

    I've seen him play well in the Reserves for 4/5 years (when we had Ifil and Jack Smith at that time) but he just hasn't progressed enough for whatever reason.

    Last night showed how much better Young and even Bouazza are.

    In my opinion he was no worse than anyone else on that pitch. He tracked back more than usual too. Give him more of a chance i say. Somethings got to work.

    Spot on! The most dissapointing thing for me was that both he and Smith were manking it so hard for Henderson! They just kept playing balls he had no chance of doing anything with. I do'nt like him but have to say he had nothing to work with last night..

    I don't really think he got much of the ball since we were content to play it up to Henderson. When he did get the ball he didn't have much of an end product but given the rarity with which he got the ball I don't think it is fair to criticise too harshly.

    he actually ran at players unlike anyone else (except smith) caused problem + put in a few good crosses

    When?

    Maybe I was expecting too much but he's no Young or Bouazza for sure (and Macca is older)

    i thought he was great, no one wants to pass to him but what few chances we got were through him. he was our best player and is the only one who would have put in crosses to shittu, so taking him off was a huge mistake.
