Quote: eddie gordo "He has improved greatly over the past few weeks but let's not get carried away. His wing positional play is still poor - he was so far out of position for Rover's first try it was embarrassing. If that would have been Penny it would have been given it's own topic on this board.
His work rate can never be faulted and I'm pleased he's starting to show some form but he's still some way short of what we were all expecting.
Work in progress but very promising - let's hope he keeps it up!!'"
I'm somewhere we you are.
I've been so impressed with him lately, but for daft stuff like work rate, which you should get anyway. I think he's benefitting this year from lower expectations, last year, he had a spell where he simply couldn't catch the ball, he literally couldn't put a foot right, and from there, he's improved out of sight, so we're all supa pleased with him.
Is he 'class', No. Does he do anything skillful in a game, No. Does he give it 100%, Yes. That's fine with all of us then, but he's not a Gidley or a Lyon so he does leave you feling a tiny bit shortchanged.
