Anybody notice him on the bench last night and in the dressing room - looks more like a coach than a player these days.

I know he's got his contract extension and I've always said I think he'll leave for some more football before returning to Eddie as a coach but actually, at hte minute, I think he's already planning his coaching start on Eddie's staff.

Not before this contract is out but once that is done, really wouldn't surprise me to see him named a coach somewhere within the club.

Would be happy to see that. He's not up to first team duties, imo, but there's a reason Eddie wants him around.

He's always been a good squad catalyst. I think there will be a backroom place for him somewhere to get experience and learn the trade from the master E.H.

If this is his last season with us, I hope he gets a few minutes here and there and a good send-off by the fans.
