I've said it a million times... This lad is a centre midfielder, playing him out wide is as effective as playing Lucas, Stevie or Joe Allen on the wing, you just wouldn't do it. Just because he's a good athlete doesn't mean he can play in any position. Play him in the middle of the park and he'll deliver week in, week out just like he did last season.
Can't believe some people didn't learn from when he first came into the club and Kenny had him playing wide right, the poor lad was slaughtered despite claims from myself and a very small group of others to play him in the centre. He moves to the centre and he's the flavour of the month all of a sudden, now the same group of people are popping up and slaughtering him again for performances which once more were coming from wide.
Today once again proved he's a quality player when you play him in the middle, but for some reason I don't think that'll stop what I sadly have to say is the majority of people on here from hanging him out to dry again should he put a foot wrong, even if he's playing out of position again. Lots of people really tarnish the clubs reputation of having the most knowledgeable fans in the world with the treatment Jordan has received this season, lets all agree to get behind the man who in a few years will be the captain of this great club, and recognise him for the talented CENTRE midfielder he really is.
