Personally, I find him OK. Like some have stated he is prone to the odd error. As are 99% of League 2 players. We can all point out players that played well in one or two games against Notts,but had we watched those same players over the course of a whole season, we would have seen errors, performances that were lacking. It’s why these players play in League 2. If these players were that good why would they be playing in League 2? The higher up players go the more consistent they are.
Do we not need some form of continuity? We simply can not and should not overhaul the squad every year, we have seen where that has got us. Look at this time last season when the retained list was announced, many were bracing themselves for a relegation scrap. Look how that turned out. We were probably 2 or 3 players short in the end. And that was not in the back 5 in my opinion.
We needed a firing Grant, which we got in the first half of the season.
We needed a winger who could go past players and create havoc, something that has already been mentioned as an area of transfer focus.
Obviously we needed a forward with pace, how oh how the season could have panned out had Mason Bennett not suffered that horrific injury.
