Who on earth would have him?

Overly harsh, any of the bottom half would consider him.

The limited bit? Or, too big for his boots?

 

I think he reckons he's made it now, and is too comfortable knowing his place in the team is assured. Too many lapses in concentration. Comes across as a bit of a bell on the Twitter, too. Always retweeting the England bollocks that others come out with, even as his performances have declined.

Probably. I haven't always felt this way about him, it's only really in recent months. He's getting on my tits. :lol:

It's a good thing the club doesn't judge players based on the bifurcated standard of "amazing" or "not good enough for the prem sell immediately."

 

This.  He is a decent RB who could be very good in the future.  We'd do very well to find a better RB who'd be willing to come to our club under our wage structure.

Is it me or does he far too often let the opposing winger get a cross in?

 

It's his biggest flaw. He constantly backs off and doesn't get tight enough to the winger.

His backing off annoys the hell out of me.

Its his utter lack of confidence in the attacking half that annoys me the most. I mean come on, you could at least _try_ to dribble past the winger jumping at you before putting in a cross.

Massive problem for him. Really seems to have lost a lot of confidence, must regain in time for next season.

He doesn't do it as recklessly as people like to think. Sometimes it's necessary.

He's improved majorly from last season.A similar type improvement would see him in the England squad imo.

 

Not really sure where the England talk has come from tbh. He'd need to improve his distribution a hell of a lot to be international standard.

a lot has to do with the utter lack of decent english right backs, glen johnson is the only decent one and he's got major flaws in that he can't defend to save his life so any half way performing english rb gets linked for internationals

While I agree I think it boils down to the pathetic amount of right backs England have at thier disposal. In a world where Glen Johnson is top dog you have to worry.

Depending on how we end up strengthening other more important areas i would not mind us go for a better RB and have him as backup, i would say that he's our weakest link apart from our so called strike force!
