Have to agree. Decisiveness is a huge part of being an effective defender - you need to know what you're going to do with the ball before you get to it, are you going to take a touch, make an instant pass, lump it upfield or put it in row Z? McLennan always looks like he has no idea what he's going to do with the ball each time he gets it. I don't see any of signs of him making it as a defender. Just doesn't have the right skill set. If he could learn to consistently beat his man and put in a cross he could still make it on the wing, though.

I think he's a loon who just needs his role on the pitch simplified for him as much as possible.
