Definitely good to have him as a part of the squad!

Wasn't his best game and I'm sure he acknowledges that too but wingers can be a bit hit and miss and it can be difficult if you haven't played for a while.

it hurt to watch - I am not writing him off - but he must be very concerned himself - he had a big chance today and totally blew it - I for one hope he gets more chances

This kind of baiting is getting ridiculous. One game and a player's finished now?

He did ok but a lot of what he tried just wouldn't quite come off. He is still a dangerous player though. One excellent run in the second half. I want him to succeed so much.

Clearly I am losing the plot! I thought he had a decent game, great work rate, I think he caused them a few problems. Obviously he wasn't as threatening as Silva or Johnson, but he's simply not as gooder footballer as they are, but I thought he had a solid game to be honest.

I am far from SWP's greatest fan, but considering it was his first game back for a while and he had to play on the left and right, I thought he did OK.

A good squad player he is and will be. Just wish his daft step-father would keep his trap shut.

I'm with you on both accounts. I thought he was decent. Not superb but decent.

And I love the wee lad. Excellent player to have on the bench and WHEN, not if, injuries strike us.

Has received completely unwarranted stick here over past year or so.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Sorry guys he had a few runs but gave the ball away a huge number of times - an incredible number. I didn't see anything different from his performances in the last 12 months. He just doesn't cut it at this level - give the ball away like that against Chelsea, Inter and Scum-of-old and you'll pay dearly for it.

Great fella, great attitude, just not at it.

Compare him to David Silva who shows great runs, skill etc but hardly ever gives the ball away. Cant really follow why people cant see this problem in SWP, it's pretty blatant.
