Arguably the most hard done by player this season.

One of our best players in the first half of the season, at last a winger chipping in with goals and assists, and ever since the turn of the year he’s rarely started a game and been reduced to the last 10/15 minutes or so.

Now, if the murmurs are true that he might be suffering with long Covid, fair enough, but why not come out and tell the fans that? Has this ever been questioned by the press? Surely he shouldn’t be playing at all if he’s still suffering.

He’s out of contract in the summer and I can’t see him signing on as surely he can’t be happy after undeservingly losing his place to a couple of over paid loanees and a lad who hadn’t played since the summer.

Feel like the club have messed up with this one.

Why should they?
 
He was one of our best performers earlier in the season. Created a few, scored a few. I think he got Covid at about the same time that we brought in a few loanees, and its a shame that he is now on the fringes. I feel he has been hard done by.
 
he is average... if we are gonna push one then we need to gamble on new talent... we know marvins game and his skill set
 
Comes on as a sub and looks good for 15-20 minutes.

When he starts he rarely impresses - its his call on whether he signs a new contract - I won't lose any sleep if he goes.
 
I would say he's been harshly treated. He was pretty consistent since Warnock came in and also played on last season when his contract was up (unlike others).

I do think it's almost definitely down to a contract. I imagine he's like Fletcher and had one on the table since Xmas. He has triggered another year but that's only if he wants it (Warnocks words).

He's 31 and God knows what contract Monk had him on. If the rest of that summer is anything to go by he will he on a few quid even coming from league 1.
