    Interested in peoples thoughts on him!

    Best position?
    What he offers?
    What he does best?
    Is he Sunderland Captain material?

    1. Centre Midfield
    2. Communication
    3. That little "come here" gesture with his fingers
    4. More so that most others in the squad

    1. Why has he been shoe horned into Right Back? 2. How does his communication affect the game? All i see him do is wave his arms
    3. No idea
    4. Better than Sanderson, O’Nien, Winchester, McGeady? (Regulars in recent games)

    1. You are asking the wrong man
    2. Players hear him shout and do things based on those things
    3. Not sure that's a question
    4. Sanderson is a bairn, McGeady was out the team for half a season, you can't just drop Power from the captaincy because you like McGeady better. O'Nien? :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    1. Fair enough, dont see why you would move someone to right back when they’d offer more as a centre midfielder. I havent seen him offer anything in that position
    2. I havent seen that happen but happy to concede
    3. I have no idea what you meant by the ‘come here’ gesture
    4. For me:
    Sanderson has shown alot of maturity and looks a class above
    O’Nein leads by example and will put himself everywhere and has a very good attitude
    I dont like McGeady ‘better’ he seems to have been a top performer since hes come back in

    He's a great character and he's captain material all day long but he wouldn't make it into my best 11. I can't be arsed to look at the moment but it'd be interesting to see how his recent stats match up for an objective viewpoint.

    Fair play to him for doing a solid job filling in at RB, not flawless by any means but he adapted well to help us out of a tight spot. I think it shows his best feature which was previously unknown, which is crossing. He's put some lovely balls in.

    Midfield if we have to play him
    Pointing, clapping and overhit passes.
    See above
    Why not, no one really leads by example in this squad

    Middle of the park
    Bit of physicality and energy, a "presence"
    Nothing outstanding
    He will do for now

    He is not a full back, playing him ahead of Connor and depriving our mid field of his services was a costly mistake as we found out.

    Sorry but posts like this annoy the hell out of me. You ask for everyone’s opinions without stating your own first, you then pick apart people’s answers.

    if you answer those 4 questions, then I’ll give my opinions

    My own opinion is stated
    I’ve said in the pre Wigan thread he’s an awful footballer and a waste of a shirt

    Just wondered what others thought of him

    Just interested why you didn’t ask this 3 or 4 games ago when he was playing well and leave it until he has a couple of off days. Why not ask the same about McGeady who has been off the boil for quite some time too?

    It seems a knee jerk to me. And pretty much in the vein of “one swallow does not a summer make”
