Spoke to a Jambo at work about him yesterday. They all really rated him, and though the was a standout in the championship. However, most also thought he just didn't have enough ability to go to the next level. Said that he really improved when given a run of games, but was dropped frequently for other players & formations, and it took him a few games to get form back. Not sure how much of this is fact, but just passing on what he said.

From what I've seen, we could have a very good player on our hands. Hopefully he gets a good 15-20 game run and we can see what he's all about! No complaints so far from me. That ball for Wallace's 2nd v's St Mirren was a peach!

My mate is a Hearts fan and says the only reason that he was dropped was because Neilson liked to play with strong midfielders i.e Buaben and Gomis where as Holt was someone that needed the ball on the deck to get the most out of him. He'll thrive in Warburton's system.

Is like a Scholes figure in Uniteds old team.

Won't get as much praise as others but will be a vital clog in our team for years to come.

He has goals, vision and a great footballing brain.

Said it from the first time he kicked a ball for us, my favourite player.

To be honest, I imagine Jason Holt as like a Scottish version of the Bayern Munich Spanish Central Midfielder Thiago who is great technically and a ball player with good creativity and also a great all round general CM although Thiago is a bit faster and taller and stronger than Holt but I think they are similar in their attributes and the way they contribute to the teams.

This might be a bit more far fetched but I imagine Martyn Waghorn as like an English Rangers version of Thomas Muller, with the way he doesn't really have a fixed position on what he is better at between Centre Forward and Right Winger and he is a great runner with stamina who closes down from the front and he is good at penalties and shooting with good all round general hold and link up play like Muller and both aren't the greatest at headers although Muller is more skinny and faster with more running stamina probably while Waghorn is a lot stronger and a tank with maybe a bit better hold up play because of that (I made this same post in the Brazil thread but thought it would fit in in this thread too)
