Standard Liege would be a canny switch for him mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’d been healthy when Howe came in I think he’d have got decent minutes in our relegation battle and then not gone out on loan. As it stands, he’s clearly being held together by some string and pritt stick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had the legs before his injuries to be effective in a Howe setup imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play, I always really liked him, not as an elite talent but someone who was a committed player when he wasn’t getting in his lying-on-the-grass breaks each game. His game had zero frills but I think he would have followed what Howe wanted him to do to the letter and worked extremely hard in training Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he isn't perma-crocked and gets his move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 He wasn't technically brilliant, but at least he was one of the few midfielders we had who could actually move from one section of the pitch to the other at above 10mph. At that point where we were either fighting relegation or trying to win our way back into the Premier he was good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawalls Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 If he was better then some of our midfielders, never got injured as much then he could have made it as a 70th minute substitute from time to time /s Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't have a horrendous injury record then, would probably have seen more London clubs pitching in for his signature back then. I suppose if he really wanted to be closer to London he could just retire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
