He didnt show it last season... he's scored in 2 freindlys against lower opposition .. Evans was solid all season
What if Cairney lives up to our PL hype about him? Gulacsi Rosenior Hobbs Chester Dudgeon Koren McKenna Cairney Brady Fryatt Simpson
He didn't no, but it looks like he's knuckled down and is eager to impress the management team this season. Be that the case Evans should be dropped. Just because he was "solid" last season doesn't mean he should be guaranteed starts this season. If there's better players (which there are) then he should make way for the good of the team.
Guy Branston their Captain - wasn't he at Rotherham the day we beat them 1-0 in the Great Escape year and smashed the dressing room door down at BP after getting sent off and severly cut his arm?
We agree on something. Rejoice. Neither did Evans, he just flew above criticism because of the absurd "young and hungry" tag every new player gets. Cairney is by far a better player. So no doubt he'll be on his way next week.
That's the issue with Cairney, if he plays to his potential he could be a real useful player and a bit of a problem solver for us, as unless we put Koren in the middle, we lack creativity in the middle of the park. However if he plays like he did at times last season there's no point even having him on the bench.
Oh totally agree with that im just saying Evans shouldnt be pushed out straight away when Cairneys only impressed in pre-season so far.. Cairney should come on as sub for a game or two before we see if hes good enough to replace Evans
Got himself into a pickle that day, eh He was in the Sheff Weds team the year we beat them 4-2 at Hillsborough.
