He’ll show the odd moment of magic like his recent superb goal or a decent free kick, but his contribution is almost negligible.

The free kick apart, he offered nothing at Middlesborough on Saturday, and I wasn’t surprised to see him left out tonight.

A player with his ability, should be dominating at this level, not be a peripheral figure.

If MM can find a way to get him on the ball more and bring out the best in him, it could be the difference between possibly going up, or staying in this division.
Negligable contribution !! For goodness sake. What are you on. Are you going to start a separate thread for each one of our players saying how useless they are ? He is one of the few players who would get people into the grounds in the first place and then off their seats during the games. He was rested yesterday by the way - don't take my word for it, listen to Micks post match interview.
