Why oh why is he even in the squad?
A luxury that cost a lot and appears to be wasted money.
Hopefully he was only given a 1 year contract.

Looked a good player at first, very rarely wasted a ball and carried it well. Trouble is he just carries it sideways and doesn't really have much impact.
Looks like he is unfit as well, unless there's other problems we don't know about.

£300k been muted, with a 3 year deal. Don't look such good business now. El Miz is a different story.

His fitness is a mystery. Covid perhaps?

Is being overweight a symptom of long covid?

I've been saying as much for ages but just get the 'stop wumming' replies. Something isn't right. I hope he and the club can get it sorted pronto for his and our sake.

The games are just passing him by. Richie had no choice but to sub him after 50 minutes. Even when it meant sticking Pratley in as the 10. FFS.

You could see after twenty mins the players around him were pressing and he wasn’t. Not good enough. There must be a reason because I can’t imagine Richie standing for it otherwise.

He has got a belly, but still has a better pass success percentage than any other League Two player.

Bearing in mind he wasn't in peak physical condition even early in the season due to the tendinitis then followed up by the mystery illness that seems to circulate around Orient, then the wisdom tooth to top it off he's had a rough couple of months.

For his own sake and the XI best to take him out the firing line for now if possible, Sadlier in the CAM role?

I would. From what I saw he wanted the ball a lot and had good movement but didn’t have a clue how to overlap or track back as a winger

That’s because most of his passes are only 2-3 yards and he just doesn’t ‘hurt’ the opposition.
Clay is probably a better option just now as at least he work his bo##ocks off
