I'm not sure he was atrocious but felt Brewster was our second least effective player after Norrington Davies who I thought struggled all game.
He is trying but he doesn't get it to me. What I mean is he doesn't get Football. Struggles with where to run, how to get in positions and anticipating.
He has OK control and touch but is not a dribbler, hold up,link player or even that fast. He is not a physical striker or particularly good in the air. He is not a box striker nor is he a link man or runner.
His one redeeming quality is he has a hard shot but he cannot aim said hard shot.
I think we ate poorer and offer less threat when he plays. Do we just keep playing him for another 2-3 months and hope it clicks bit it's more than just clicking. The aforementioned concerns about not knowing the basics will not suddenly change I feel.
I don't see a player in him at all in the evidence I have seen. Maybe confidence is an issue but I think it's more than that. I sadly just don't think he is good enough. A flurry of shots going in for Swansea and some promise in youth football is less compelling an argument for his quality than the year of senior football we have seen.
Over a year on and I've no idea what he is.
I would rather him go on loan for 3 months in January and try and learn the game at a level where he might be able to work on his weaknesses.
We have him for 4 more seasons and we ain't getting our money back so we'd be better trying to let him develop and hoping that sees a shift. We can't just waste a spot on him for a season.
