If ever a footballer epitomises his manager it’s this little fraud. Negative as hell, not a single shot on target in his SAFC career from our midfield dynamo. Slow, no presence, passes backwards and sideways and stops any sort of momentum. I can totally understand why Ross, who knew him so well from Scotland was hell bent on signing him and making him one of the highest paid players this league has ever seen. A negative sick note.

I don’t think he’s quite as bad as made out by the OP but I certainly don’t see the midfielder some see. He’s a bit one dimensional for me and can’t really get about the pitch.

This for me. I appreciate he divides opinion but I simply don’t see a single positive attribute he offers. For a midfielder to never have a shot at goal or offer any presence or forward momentum. Has zero ability to quickly get about the Park and a shocking injury record makes him yet another shocking Ross signing for me.

He's scored 4 goals in about 150 games, possibly has even less assists. Shite
 
2 incidents in quick succession in the first half summed him up.

1) Came back to the goalie to pick up the ball and then played it back to the goalie.

2) Got the ball in midfield and played it sideways our for a throw in to them.

A waste of space in terms of creativity. He certainly is a 0-0 or 1-1 kind of player.

If we only want neat and tidy, put a dustbin on the pitch.

I agree with you mate. I've never seen the attraction with him. Not really sure how anyone can move so slowly and get injured so much.
We will never get anywhere with him in the team.

I don't know what a happy clapper is but no I've never claimed to be one of them.

He’s the least of our worries, unlike folk like you.

Never got the love he attracts from some on here, Leadbitter has more bite and vision so has to play instead of him, also his set piece taking is missed when he isn't playing, Power in if Grant isn't available and McGeoch third choice, he brings nothing to the table especially when he is as wasteful and soft as he was yesterday, when he was being lauded last week he did very little to actually impact the game in a positive way, he's basically Tommy Miller.

He's clearly not in the team for creating or scoring goals though, is he.

Every player should be looking to drive us forward and to create chances. The fact that we've had 2 shots on target from open play in 2 games is a perfect reflection of Mr negative Jack Ross and his negative midfield maestro with his 2 assists in 150 games. This jock makes Cattermole look like Messi
