Needs a special mention, he was brilliant today. If he would take a 50% wage drop I’d re-sign him. He burst into tears when he scored.

Been a rough time for him.
In my opinion, got scapegoated for the Bowyer season and then had a poor loan spell in Germany. If I remember correctly he was criticised by the manager over there.
I think he’s been good this year. Far better than Bielik in that deep midfield role, who is far better suited at centre back.
Like you say, I would renew him. Don’t know how big his salary is, but I would at least negotiate.

I’m assuming 20k is above average for our squad, maybe even the Championship?
You’d need to knock him down a bit, it’s whether or not he could accept that.

I would love to see the stats for points gained when he plays v when he doesn’t. I’m convinced he makes a difference to our success.

One thing about him is the bloke never hides in a game.

Good game today but resigning him? It's a no from me. We need to improve on retaining the ball and whilst he is decent when we don't have the ball, he is not good enough when we do. The tears were touching and he took his goal well but he does not score enough period and it's time to move on.

I’ve already consigned him to the get rid list in my mind to change my opinion now. He was outstanding yesterday fully deserving all of the plaudits he’s getting.
Could we get better value for less money? If yes it’s a no brainer.
What was good about him yesterday was how disciplined he was in that he normally the one to run round like a headless chicken flying into tackles.
He wasn’t like that yesterday and in fact seemed to work well next to Paik. They both had good games, for me the test would be, let’s see if we can replicate this performance in the next two games.
