Playing tonight for Middlesbrough's U21s. He's been allowed to do so by us. Presumably to improve his match fitness as he's not really played much for us. Should we extend his loan if we get to play-offs? I don't think it would do any harm
The lad's quality we should hang on to him as long as we can. His only fault for me is a tendency to keep the ball too long.
I'd be looking at not only keeping him but also giving him more minutes. He's a very talented player who can unlock defences.
He should have been on for Hammill on saturday, was he even on the bench? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
That's just the point. Nothing much to say about him because he is hardly playing. As I've said in other threads, Hammill needs resting for a game or two, even if it means putting him on the bench and bringing him on late to terrorise a defence. I know he has been brilliant since coming in, but he's starting to look a bit predictable. That is, until he does something UNpredictable
Too harsh on a talented player, but he definitely has something wrong with him in the last few weeks. Yes, he occasionally bursts through a couple of players and sets up a chance. More often though he loses the ball. Yes he occasionally goes on one of those trademark runs and ends up curling a beauty towards goal (Oxford prime example). More often though, he loses the ball. His talent hasn't gone, it's just missing temporarily. It will be back but I wouldn't mind seeing Chapman start on Saturday. No harm keeping Adam on his toes.
i've been disappointed with him to be honest. he looked electric when he first joined us, but has done very little since for me. obviously an excellent talent though, and obviously we should keep him through the play-offs, if we were to finish top 6
