Of course it’s valid. I was wondering if it’s something that Ross said after today’s game, that is all.

No its a term that has been used to describe a flair player
Who isnt quite good enough to run a match for 90.

A bit of a luxury ,

Good Championship sides & above can cope with someone
Like him ( better quality obv') as the rest of there teams are.decent. .
But for L2 & & most of league 1 then they are really a No No .

Yes he has potential & on his day can be a match winner ,
Just to often players like him have to get 5 or 6 years older
before they wake upto the fact of what they need/have to do.

Its a shame but thats the biggest reason players of his ilk never
Quite make it big .

Wouldn’t say mom but he definitely looked more aware of his positional sense and as you say, covered twice which stopped dangerous crosses.

Him and Brophy were both reluctant to get drawn out to their wingers which must be a tactic but it worries me.

Nowhere near MOTM, that’s just ridiculous.

Agreed with the deliberate tactic of keeping the 4 together. It’s almost as if we’d rather a cross come in than risk their winger beating his man and drawing the centre half out. Not something I’m aware of being a thing but yeah, I guess I get it. It happens too often and with different players to be coincidence.
