What’s the point he offers nothing on the pitch - if he is that great in the dressing room give him a role on the staff.
He covers RB to a good level, probably better than Neco.
He can cover LB if necessary (probably unlikely to be needed).
A decent sub in midfield for the last 30 mins of games to help control games.
Almost guaranteed to score a penalty if necessary. Cool as F*** in the most high pressure games.
Can play the less important games (FA and League cups) with the young players. He can help them to learn game management which is a very important part of our game.
Offers plenty on the pitch and an important part of the squad.
I agree we can reduce the number of older players in the squad and there are a few of the kids that need more game time. I'd rather see Ox leave from midfield, Origi is going, probably some others.
