Matt Ritchie

[ghostrider]

I also like his work rate and attitude. Not sure why so much dislike, as at times he has been our best player and pulled the team together.If the current team perform well then he probably will have to earn his place back but I would rather have him than not.

Presumably the dislike stems from his unwise comments about the regime changes.

I think this post sums it up.

Nope.

Key player.

I have no dislike for him. Put simply, part of his job as a wide player is to create and we have better options there now.

Yeah, this. I actually like him as a squad member but we need someone who can put in more than just the rare good cross and harry the opposition.

He will be decent next season in the championship

He's a better player than Almiron.

He's a better player than Almiron.

There’s not many worse than Almiron in my opinion. Along with Lascalles their the two weakest links

[trinitoon]

Almiron can come good. He just needs better coaching by Brucie but that's an oxymoron right there.

I, for one, would like Ritchie back. So if the currently preferred options pull up injured, what then?

We need some depth on the bench and Ritchie is a good player. Don't understand the negativity. He doesn't pull up trees but I see him as a kind of Milner player. Unspectacular but you need the workrate and what he brings as part of the team rather than what he brings as an individual.

Good back up

Almiron will come good,he broke through the Man U Defence a couple of times fed by Saint Maxim but was on the end of a good block then hesitated just a fraction too long before shooting on another occasion.He has the pace to unnerve any defence IMO just needs to score.
