Class player in there somewhere. Tremendous strength and an ability to stroll around players at will. Just needs to sort out his ridiculous tackling!!
It has often been said on here many a time before, but he's a walking red card. Sorry harrowhorn your can keep him mate.
Good to know he's learning to pace himself better, another 2 years & should be good for 70 mins & 4 years maybe the unthinkable.
Are you are thinking of a full 90? Dreamer. He has a unique attribute to his game...sadly it's that you never know how long you will have him on the pitch for.
Remove the personality traits - the fellow is a hot headed footballer - saddled with depression, that can sadly affect you or I at any time. Putting this aspect of his character aside, his approach to the game is spicy and prone to over committed challenges; as such, until this aspect is coached out of his game, he will remain a rough diamond, with plenty of talent but with a predilection for a rash challenge. A real shame, as his goal against Arsenal proved, the lad has plenty of unharnessed talent, coupled with a self destruct button that inhibits his true potential.
So we paid £3.5 million for a manic-depressive headcase that has a little bit of talent as well? Sums up just about everything this club has done wrong in the last three years. Yeah, let's sit down, hold his hand and coach the darkside out of him...
Pretty much what I said when news of his mental problems first broke last year, yet was torn asunder for insensitivity.
