    Good to see him in his best position.

    IF, we were to play a similar formation to what we have, and he was part of a front 3, then I'd keep him in a heartbeat. He's great at cutting in from the left and running at players. If we were to revert back to a front 2 and wing backs, it would be pointless keeping him. He's at his best when he gets the ball to feet and he can run.

    I sort of get the criticism about his work ethic. There were a few games where he didn't look bothered in the second half, but I think that's more down to fitness than work rate.

    He's certainly one I'd rather have in my squad than playing against.

    I think this is a great point, and the answer for me is no.

    I don't care too much about his experience, I just want a player who puts 100% in every game been better last 3 games but alot of the season the effort has been missing sadly. I think he has ability just needs to turn up for 46 league games.

    We'd be barmy to get shut for me. Play him where his strengths are and not down the middle.

    If we’re playing youth next season, we do need experience across the pitch to bolster this.

    We’ve said it time and time again - sign sometime English with EFL experience and not a young kid. Tbf the club did do.

    If CH gets the job, I suspect he won’t stand for lack of effort - so that might change.

    he’s just playing for his contract to be extended or get a new one elsewhere - think he will slip back into his old habits which are exactly what Wigan fans said about keeping him motivated was difficult.
