So another game goes by where it seems Coutts is NOT shite...NOT lazy and actually a good footballer both technically and in thought.
Hopefully he will continue like this, proving a lot of people wrong and showing that when he is used correctly, and when he is fully fit he is more than good enough for league one.
A lot of people, me included, stated that we needed another quality player in midfield. And a lot of people...again perhaps me included were disappointed we didn't fill the void we all felt was glaringly obvious.
However, at the moment Coutts has been that player and he has over consecutive games been easily in our top 3 players on the pitch.
I for one feel vindicated in suggesting he was good enough, and that if used right by Wilder we might finally have the player Clough brought in.
Sunday he again showed great touch, good movement to be available to receive the ball, and a good range of passing to keep the ball moving. Also dispelled the myth that he didn't get stuck in or tackle, and that he is slow.
Well done lad!
So my next prediction after suggesting he might become integral to the team.....he will start adding the odd goal as confidence grows. Heard it hear first.
Will be very interesting to see how people react when we are receiving a few bids for his services in January!
