That was the most surprising thing to me, couple of times he was played into space and I thought he was in only for him to be pretty comfortably beaten to the ball.
That was really his main plus point to me to, speed can help cover a lot of learning issues and without it I’d trust him even less.
Yep I’ve been a long time advocate of this lad but he was shocking yesterday. Needs to get game time somewhere competitive asap. I’ve said before how he hardly had any professional games before coming to us (about 8 appearances for Rangers or something mad like that), but he’s been here a good while now. A loan as a starter for a top-to-mid Championship side would really sort out what level of player he is.

Feel for him.
Never sign for Rafa Benitez, kids.
I don't know. We haven't helped him but he's probably on about 50k a week having never been first choice anywhere. I think the most likely problem is that he was never good enough in the 1st place
