Quote: Jake the Peg "I've watched him in the last couple of games and he's been pretty much a passenger on the pitch, struggling to keep up with play, having no real influence on the attack and looking like an oil tanker in defence. If other people can't see that then they need to remove their B&W tinted specs.
I think he has 5 try assists this season, for context, sneyd, in a worse team, has 14 and sneyd used to get slagged from pillar to post on here.
I may be proven wrong, I think it may have happened previously at some point, but his track record doesn't give me any belief I will be. Other than a few early season months at rovers last year and the year before, his career has been monumentally underwhelming and pinning our hopes on him will prove to be a mistake.
He's 28, not 21'"
No b&w tinted glasses here
In fact I got accused of the opposite when I questioned the loan signing of Aydin a few weeks back.
Amazing how fans try to accuse you of being one or the other the minute your opinion differs to theirs?
But I get the feeling you are going to criticise Abdull no matter what he achieves this season.
Granted I haven’t seen that much of their games this season but I caught a bit of the Saints game the other day and he looked far from knackered. It was around the hour mark and he was leading their line speed in defence. A Saints player made a break and he caught them up and dragged them down. He certainly didn’t appear lazy like some of our current squad do.
