Crofts

[Rugrat]

Simple Q, what's the verdict? Suspect there could be polarised views

 

[Barry M]

Really unimpressed with him since resigning, not the player he was, I remember him scoring goals, winning headers and tackling hard! This time round none of this has been apparent and he looks really poor, even simple passing has gone from his game. I'd expect him to be a fringe player once Kemy is fit.

 

[Buckley's Mad Eye]

Probably not good enough, but FFP means we're reliant on players like him so he'll get my support.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Last season was unfortunate for him, as he started on fire and then got an injury and was never the same. I hope he improves this year as his experience could be important.

It took a while for people to like crofts when he first signed and tended to polarise opinions it was only as he was sold his praises were getting sung. Maybe he needs a run of consistent games to start showin his worth but kemy looks twice the player at the moment so not sure he'll hold down a starting place to improve into the team.

I. M. O. good, Solid performance yesterday. I'm hoping he can step up this season.

The injury seemed a watershed moment. I thought the summer break and his involvement in pre season might have brought him back to peak form. Although I've not seen a game yet he doesn't seem to have rediscovered any kind of form

I agree with this. Lets just hope that he gets back to his best under Oscar.

Would like to see Agustien start up along Bridcutt

I am sure that this will happen within a few weeks.

Totes.

Crofts was fantastic in L1, but imo has struggled since returning. Injury hasn't helped (and maybe Gus didn't either) but I want to see Liam & Kemy BOSSING midfield this season.

I am sure that this will happen within a few weeks.

Unfortunately I suspect a few days

 

[TottonSeagull]

More concerned about Bruno than Crofts. After a good start he was a liability last year and by all accounts was pony yesterday again!

 

[BuddyBoy]

I'm on the fence, but only as it is, I suspect, a matter of time negatively speaking.

He's played well but I'm don't exactly feel 'safe' with him.

I like HIS DOG show

I like HIS DOG show

Agreed, his dog show is excellent by all accounts and worth his place in the squad on this alone (though he played better, and definitely tackled harder, when at Norwich).

Tackled like a terrier early on in his career.

Tackled like a terrier early on in his career.

He's a good utility player to have in the squad

 

[Mellotron]

Mr 6.5-7/10 has struggled in his second spell, partly due to being very limited. Works hard, gives his all, passion etc, but unless he's winning the ball well and working hard in the engine room of midfield, he's not a massive amount of use.
