Great news - just got on with his role this season. Unsung hero.

Just needs a dynamic box to Box midfielder next him now
Or is this our January signing

We have got Harper, Field and Edwards who would love to get the chance in that type of role.

I remember playing in a good local team years ago when you were only allowed 1 sub, so competition for places was fierce. I was 1 of several young uns (..... yep) and it was always one of us who dropped out. We questioned this and so one of the other regular starters made way the following week. He was a very anonymous (we thought) midfielder.
There was a massive hole in the team, and we lost that game, which was very unusual.
The guy's value to the team wasn't obvious, until he wasn't playing; he was always there for the easy pass, never lost the ball even if most of his passes were short or obvious. He was a hugely important player, we learnt!

I suspect Jake Livermore is very similar.

Livermore stepped up at the end of last season and has been a constant performer this season. It’s like someone has flipped a switch and he’s back to his best.

Glad to have him in this league but I still maintain Yacob is missed.
