What is your view on Mcleod

[Herr Tubthumper]

The impression I got from the Colchester fan I spoke to suggests if he gets injured he gets out of shape quickly. If he can stay injury free and get a good run of games maybe it will work out? He did look alright yesterday. He got a really good cross in from the by-line towards the end and also went past a few players with some ease.

 

[drew]

Fat and crap.

 

[Springal]

He showed great potential I thought before Micky Adams ruined him by bringing him back from injury early on in the season!

 

[LABHA]

The Jury is still out for me.

 

[dougdeep]

He'll get more chances, which I think he deserves.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

My concern would be that he's, what, 28 years old and has never really made the breakthrough with any of his clubs so far.

How long can people talk about a player's potential? At what point do you stop and think "this player's never going to be as good as he could be", when do you start to tell someone it's about more than just ability?

For a female you put alot of male posters to shame with your input

When did he bring him back early?
He was unfit before he got injured anyway, unfit in the fat sense. He did alright for 20 minutes yesterday, as he has before, but that seems to be the limit of how long he can play for. He's got a great left foot but has done nothing to suggest he really wants to play football.

 

[GT49er]

Not on my 'want-to-keep' list for next season.

 

[Rookie]

Should be good but for what ever reason just doesn't seem to be able to do it. Who knows why, but hopefully Slade can get the best out of him in pre season and we will see a new player has a quality left foot

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Lazy and a bad attitude, or so it seems. He never really had a run in the team, and that's because of his complete lack of fitness. Get him fit and he might be a player, his left foot is class and he showed he could dribble. I think he's a good player in a fat mans body, sort out the weight and he'll be fine.

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

He's not fat he's broad shouldered.

 

[Skaville]

Another dire Mickey Adams signing. Thank f*** MA has gone.

 

[bright1064]

He's not fat he's broad shouldered.

I prefer big boned as in Cartman from South Park.

 

[andywhing4england]

McLARD is a waste of wages...bring in somone with commitment and a smaller waistline

 

[philgull25]

rubbish no time for him. doesnt seem to care much. always injured should be listed or released asap

 

[Guy Fawkes]

Very good player, very injury prone. If he can get fit and stay fit he will be AMAZING for us.

agreed

 

[lancingtroop]

if he stays fit he is purely an impact sub and thats it, good player for about half an hour max. when he came on yesterday i said to my mate brilliant hear comes that fat lazy useless c**t and he completly proved me wrong but isnt good enough for 90 mins

 

[Basil Fawlty]

He seems alot fitter and lost alot weight under Slade, hopefully with a good pre-season under his belt we'll see the old Mcleod back. In which we did see at the start of this season, untill he picked up that rather bad looking knee injury against Barnet back in August.

 

[vulture]

He looked well up for it yesterday when he came on.Looked quick,done some great tackles and looked fitter.Was great in pre-season but off the pace during the season.Lets hope for better things next year.
