He's trying the David Bell method of trying to get a new 4 year contract.Is he dead?
YesWould he get in the squad right now? Well maybe tomorrow cos no MvE but generally?
He wouldn't, let's be honestHe's just not very good. Bang average Championship defender at best, he's fine if we're completely desperate, but you wouldn't want him starting 25 games a season, I have a feeling someone like Bidwell would get in at CB ahead of Lats.

Don’t think he’s played all that much at all under Frank has he?its an odd one, he played alot under frank, and captain didnt he??
i thought he did last season, obv not this at allDon’t think he’s played all that much at all under Frank has he?
Likeable guy, seems professional and would be a decent squad player. Clearly lacks the technical ability to play regularly in a top end Championship squad. From the games he’s played, always thought he did best as a no nonsense centre back.
No, but if he's fit he'll be in the squadDo we need five defenders on the bench?
He played quite a lot of the first good win of runs under Lampard when we played 3 at the backDon’t think he’s played all that much at all under Frank has he?

I'm not so sure. If everyone's fit, I don't see how he gets on the bench, unless we are playing 3 at the back, then will need a back up CB.No, but if he's fit he'll be in the squad
It was last Friday. He’s been injured all season got fit went out to Jamaica got injured again after not playing their first match but on the bench.He had a run out with the U21s a couple of weeks ago
To me he would, primarily because of his versatility in that he can play 3 positions and play in a back 4 or 5.I'm not so sure. If everyone's fit.
1. GK - Wilson
2. Right back - KKH
3. CB - Wolfie
4. LB - Bidwell / Breu
5. CM - Eccles
6. CM - Allen
7. ST - Simms
8. ST - BTA / EMC / Sakamoto - depending on who drops out for Rudoni.
But we don't need his versatility, because we have a specialist back up right back. It was different last season as he was the back up right back as well as the back up CB. You could bring him in and drop who ever is left back, but he's never going to cover left back. He's also not going to play in midfield ahead of Allen or Eccles or Andrews.To me he would, primarily because of his versatility in that he can play 3 positions and play in a back 4 or 5.
I think we’ve established by now from Raphael etc that there’s only so much you can gather from who’s doing the promo stuffI never see him in any of the promotional vids or pics. It really is as if he’s just disappeared.
No, but if he's fit he'll be in the squad
If that was the case why was he named in our official 25 man squad. During the course of a season you always need versatile players just because of injuries and suspensions if nothing else.But we don't need his versatility, because we have a specialist back up right back.

We're talking about whether he gets in the squad when everyone's fit and available. Not if there are injuries or suspensions.

Yeah good point.Nine subs, is it not?
What? He played for the u21’s and Lampard said has trained all week?
