I don't know if anyone else thinks that he plays like his heart isn't in it, and he just doesn't want to be here?

There is no doubt that he has the ability, and shows it at times. But as most managers would tell you, that extra bit of emotion often makes the biggest difference.
 
As he matures? He's 26 in 3 months for christs sake. At the same age his brother was one of the best defenders in the world

A venerable poster who has already been negative about him on this thread posted frequently a couple of seasons back that at 24 Anton was an excellent prospect.

Tell you who caught my eye last night - Jagielka beat Bent for a 40/60. Not many do that. Do England still need a carthorse like Terry I wonder...

If you're referring to me I still feel the same way about him. He's still young for a centre half and whenever he's had a run of games he's looked good enough. I just can't rid myself of the notion that the lad's desire to look cool outweighs his desire to succeed.
 
Any defender who is in and out of the team and when in is being asked to play a different position is going to struggle never mind Anton who we can agree is no even in the top 3 CH at the club

Out of interest when was the last time before last night Ferdinand started a game at CH?

Anybody any idea

Agreed, 26 is young for a centre half no matter what anyone says and he has his best years ahead of him.

Regarding his desire to look cool outweighing his desire to succeed, I know what you mean but I think as he matures further it's something he will grow out of.
 
well hes managed to get turner injured clearing up his mess, guess we'll see whether match time makes him better at all
