Fair enough, and probably unfair. but I’ve been impressed with his work ethic, his strength and his desire to tackle and get back given his age, being a loanee, a Brazilian (sorry) and from Chelsea. I don’t think he’s trying to impress either, I just think he wants to be on the ball a lot, likes getting stuck in and has that youthful energy and stamina to get up and down the flank which is refreshing to see really. I had t seen anything of him when he arrived and thought here we go, another player who will probably not play much or when he does will go through the motions. Again I hope we sign him permanent, he can develop into a top player here under Rafa and I think the fans are going to love him.

Aye HTT you have had a howler there. Especially since our laziest player is being touted for the England team.

 

I wouldn’t say Shelvey is lazy per se, he’s trying to get away from that trait. I just think he doesn’t have the stamina, energy and pace to really put himself about. You can see him try. He tends to give up, maybe in frustration with himself? I sometimes look at him and he often seems upset with himself or lacking in confidence physically. Which he doesn’t do when he gets a foot on the ball...

Aye agree there's a difference between laziness and to be frank just not having energy, physical tools to be better.

 

I think Shelvey tries his best or he does now but simply has limitations that no amount of increased work rate can fix.

He just needs what the Tour de France riders use

If and hopefully when we secure our PL status for next season, wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the club try to push this through, he fits the profile they like in terms of age and potential, at a good price. There is still a question on whether he will fancy a permanent move however, rafa will have to do some selling.

Was shite today.  Only thing he did in 90 minutes was setup the winning goal. 

One of the only two things required of today then - job done from our attacking winger.

 

Sign him up. Breath of fresh air and just has that extra bit of quality. Most of our squad would’ve had a dig imo but he knew the easy option was the best in that split second.
