If you were John Lundstram...

Who hasn't let us down in the division above. His main fault is not being Paul Coutts after our star midfielder suffered a bad injury.

Quite a few other players wouldn't have been Paul Coutts either, but don't worry about that. Put the boot in anyway as he is our official club scapegoat and even more so, since the 'lazy' Leon Clarke left.

It's crazy that I find myself having to defend Lundstram... I don't even like him! But I see no reason to criticise him the way a section of our fans to criticise anyone that isn't in the form of their lives.

I don't think I was putting the boot in, ISC. I was giving my opinion of him. He's a player in the same mould as Hoyland and Rogers before him. I'm not booing him or making his life a misery, but i'm not going to pretend he has a future at the club, whether we stay in this division or get promoted.
 
We signed a League 1 player, for a League 1 fee - Don't then criticise the man for being just that, a League 1 player.

Slice the onion whichever way you want Caseh. But the fact is, he joined a championship club, draws a championship wage and is therefore required to perform at a championship level. That's the level he is fairly judged at, and currently falls short of. I don't know anyone that expects him to be the next Falcao. It's telling that his current claim to good will among the fans is leveling Grealish.
 
He lacks mobility......
He's the footballing equivalent of lukewarm water, 5/10 across all skill sets.

he is open to a fair & just critique.

Standard scapegoat stuff AFAIAC. You are as entitled to your opinion as much as the next man, but please don't say:

FFS, let's hope you don't ever need to really put the boot in.

You obviously disagree with the phrasing of my opinion, but do you disagree with the content? Is he a different player to the one I’ve described?

I think he's a better footballer than you imply. I accept he's had problems coping with the pace of the Championship but I happen to think there is a footballer in there. I'd like to think he could still come good with us but maybe he will have to move on to get game time.

It's all about opinions, isn't it?
