jjbscotty12 3,560 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Fuck knows why 90% of the fans on here seem to think he is some sort of quality player but I think he looks more of a sheep/hibs/hearts standard level. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo 32,526 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Massively inconsistent. Shouldn't be first pick so often. HG5 and theredhandofNewcastle 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 11,473 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Yeah I've never thought he was anything more than a bang average, tidy player. He doesn't offer us enough and I think we need a better, more dynamic midfielder. He shouldn't be in our strongest starting XI next season. Kamara, Davis and Arfield are better and hopefully we sign another quality attack minded midfielder. TopCat 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd disagree with the massively inconsistent part. I think he's been one of our most consistent. I think this final third of the season he's struggled a bit after injury at times. Since moving to the Jack, Davis, Kamara, Arfield midfield we've been great and Jack has played a part in that Badly missed that shape today in my opinion.

King Jela 20,360 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Only looks good if he’s got good players around him in midfield, Davis/Arfield, but without them he is genuinely terrible. A squad player, no more, no less. Cedrick and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had a few games where that's happened, I won't disagree and he's not the type of midfielder who is going to win us a lot of games on his own... I.e he's not an arfield who gets into the box or a Davis who can pick a pass. However without him, who else do we have that can give the likes of dicker and power as good as they get. Not even sure Kamara matches them in that respect. I also believe he offers more than that and in some of our European games he was outstanding. Jack has a purpose in out team and at least 8 times out of 10 I reckon he delivers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearsden bear 2,376 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Missed Davis in the midfield today. Jack is ok mopping up loose balls etc but not the best creatively. Tav and Arfield also huge misses today. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jintybear 8,536 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I think people are being really harsh. He does a lot of work off the ball and I think he is actually one of our key players. Nobody covered themselves in glory today but it looked like the team had already packed up for their holidays.

Waggy1872 427 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Need him to step up in games like today when others are missing but just doesn’t appear to offer much going forward, happy passing sideways constantly Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that he has played a huge part in the form found at the end of the season. He plays well with Davis Kamara and Airfield and I would be loathed to break that up. He works hard for us and is underappreciated IMHO Bobby Hume 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewaj3 1,444 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Also... Did he not get the assist today? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trueblueal 2,117 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 A nothing player. Doesn't score or assist, isn't quick or good in the air. He gets by because he plays a simple pass and rarely loses the ball but in truth he doesn't influence the game and he's a centre mid. We need proper class in there.
