    Don't think I've seen anything to suggest he's done as others think.

    He never was the quickest and has always had that frustrating touch at times which loses the ball. He still had the vision, weight of pass and goal threat which is a very valuable asset.

    Sometimes we need that. Sometimes our players are too scared to do so.

    Rogic must be watching him in trainin:icon_mrgreen:

    He still has a lot to offer, but strictly as a central attacking midfielder. Doesn't have the pace or workrate to play as a winger, so shouldn't be utilized as such.

    In general the team is seriously lacking when it comes to wingers.

    Think we need to accept barring injuries he may be from now just a supporting act to the first 11.

    Roberts far ahead of him, can be used well as an impact player and back up.

    Should take griffiths spot if he's ever Injured. Good touch and last player to score over 30.

    I've thought that before as well but he needs a player to feed off and to cover ground for him.

    I'd start him next week but the problem is for who you can't drop Roberts, Griff or on today's performance Kazim

    Yeah, strange to think how he is struggling to get game time. I guess, with Roberts, Rogic, GMS we now have a few players who can be creative but are more mobile than Commons. Still, would be great to see one of his classic goals against them next week although I doubt he will be playing until we are 5-0 up (so just the last 40 mins).

    But unlike walking the ball into the net he's the only one who would take a real effort at scoring from long range

    Bitton and Rogic beg to differ.
