I think he’s a good player.. head might be turned by next weeks opponents unfortunately.. Their rivals in the PL maybe? Yes I've heard it's Luton that want him, maybe that's playing on his mind.

Luton can have him for £5 million, sorted.

Maybe he wants to stay and is deterring his suitors…

Looks great when the team is playing well around him. Hides away from responsibility when it isn’t. Exactly this which is why he is an odd choice as captain , maybe it just also puts where we are in sharp perspective that this type of player is even considered for Captain .

Exactly this which is why he is an odd choice as captain , maybe it just also puts where we are in sharp perspective that this type of player is even considered for Captain . Totally agree. I read Roy Keane's autobiography and 18 year old Roy is playing for small time cobh ramblers ( cork ) v big time belvedere ( Dublin) in the Irish cup . Cobh 0 belvedere 4 and Roy was seething at how his team mates , just rolled over and let belvedere boss it . He made sure he ran twice as hard as any belvedere player , tackled twice as hard , moved the ball on twice as quickly etc etc . Just played out of pride in himself, even though his team couldn't have complained if they had lost ten nil . Shortly after the game cobh's club secretary came over to Roy ...there is a scout from Nottingham forest who wants to speak to you Roy ...and off he went to Forest and man utd . That's how a captain should be.

Seriously, since when did he become one of our main men? Too inconsistent for me. Saturday was a polar opposite from the Satdee before. Decent player on his day, but bit like Forrest Hump’s box of chocolates, never know what you’re going to get imo.

He really is shite! Another half arsed display again. You want your captain to be the one who gives 100% and to lead by example. Come on Luton, you know you want him

He’s had a very average career in the lower leagues and it shows.
At 28, he should be much better than he is. Sell him.

He's wank.
We need better than him and Thompson if we're to progress.
It's notable that, perhaps as a result of becoming so used to us having a 'nothing' midfield, that Thompson is being praised to the hilt today for putting in the kind of performance that we should be demanding as a bare minimum (and not exhalting such displays as exceptional).

When he's good he's very good but for an experienced player when it's not going for him he gets really sloppy and plays like he did today

Nothing beats a good player bashing after a decent win.
He was average today nothing more nothing less. Thought he looked a bit leggy towards the end though

He's a powerful athletic player who because of his size isnt as agile as others in positions he gets himself into. Sometimes he can use his power, today wasn't one of those days, but he was still part of a solid team performance against a top 6 team.

When he's good he's very good but for an experienced player when it's not going for him he gets really sloppy and plays like he did today I feel like he’s perfectly suited to play off Wesley. He’s strong, mobile and can run powerfully with the ball. He just doesn’t do it very often. Very frustrating.

Thought he looked a bit leggy towards the end though I quite like Laurent when he is on form, but he is a little erratic and lacks consistency. I am still not entirely sure what role suits him the best in that midfield. I imagine that the high turnover in players during the summer has restricted our captaincy options somewhat.

Considering the physique he has,he looks to be blowing out of his arse after 60-70 minutes.

I honestly despair at some of you lot Could be quite educational if the players could be invited to watch some of the posters at their workplace. See how they could handle opinions varying from 'shite' to 'useless' to 'lazy' to 'makes too many mistakes' to 'sack him'. See how they react to the verdict of someone who doesn't know much about the posters' jobs.
