I rate him - He has struggled since his return but has a great engine and a good football brain - just needs to find his form.
what nobody seems to consider is he gets limited cover so is (like Nyambe was a times) never sure whether to stick or twist.
He reminds me of Brett Emerton - he is still putting in the runs and offering an option late into the game

Great post. I’m a fan of him generally I think he looks a bit slower following his lay off though, maybe he’s holding back so doesn’t do his hamstring again?

I thought he had a poor first half last week and a far better second half, kaminski got into his ear at HT going down the tunnel I noticed.

Seems a really committed and hardworking lad so hopefully he bounces back!

I like him and think there’s potential there although for some reason he appeared to have been shackled from going forward against QPR. Last season he was actually getting in the opponents penalty area!

As soon as one is available Al, I'll post it on here for you. 👍
Otto I wish you could post one that actually works on the iPad. I’m seriously considering acquiring a cheap old PC to see if the links work on the windows platform.

Now, I'm no IT expert ODB but I don't understand why the links don't work on your ipad. As far as I'm aware, a link is a link. It should not matter which operating system you are using.

I thought he was immense last season and whilst I realise it's early days, he looks a totally different player now. Poor passing, playing the ball backwards constantly. As I said in an earlier thread, he just seemed to keep giving the ball away to opposition players. Is this a result of JDT's new regime, who knows?

I'd guess that JDT was against him going fwd in the second half on the basis of the Rovers being in the lead. Is JDT more naturally cautious and defensively minded than Mowbray perhaps? Be odd if that is he case but it could be. Maybe if we were 1 down and QPR playing more defensively his instructions might have been to drive forward to offer width up top? (width being definitely lacking last week)
