Yes. He's shown enough genuine glimpses of quality this season to show he can be a player. He's scored some good goals, is now delivering some very decent crosses, and he's always had a turn of pace. Yes he's still raw and has a lot of improvement to do, but I've seen enough to think he can be an asset. 

Hopefully will come good by 35

Raw? He's 26.

My bad, thought he was about 22. In any case, he does seem to be showing better quality this season, he's got a couple of goals and a few assists in limited appearances. He has been putting in some decent deliveries and shown he can crack a decent shot. 

He's not good enough in the wider scheme, but then very few players are, and that's not going to change until Ashley's gone.

Even if he isn’t in the long term plans, still makes sense to give him a contract so we can get a fee for him

The fact that he is willing to carry the ball forward at pace is an asset to the team. He is pretty decent at taking on a full back and putting in a great cross at times which we severely lack on either side

He’s got more in his locker under a competent manager, as have most of our players. He’s one to build on.

Really coming into his own last few games, looked pretty assured coming out with the ball tonight. He's always looked like he's got the tools to be a really good player. Could he be the next James Milner?!

Did you watch the Arsenal game?

Ignoring the previous several decent games he’s had for us prior to that, and Bruce ball of course? I think he has a degree of talent above the limitations of this squad/team to justify why we bought him in the first place...

He's fine if your objective is finishing 17th every season, apart from that he's not that good.

But we are 13th... I disagree, under the right manager I think he has legs to improve massively, he’s a grade or two above a Ritchie for example.
