Personally I think he’s a lovely fella.

Mea culpa, I should've said...I'm just not a fan of his attitude. I always question a guy who is so often injured, I mean does he live the life of a pro athlete or is his lifestyle shoddy? Mainly, I'm just peed off with him cause I seen him openly give up too many times, not working hard enough...that in my books says that person is not a team player, not someone you can rely on. Also watched a fair few interviews with him and there was something off.

But hey, that's just me and my opinion as an old fart with a strict, old school education...which makes it tricky to judge them modern day footballers who got totally different ethos to the old guard.

He needs to be bac in the team full time .. gives it a better balance... And I'm still torn between porro and Spence for the RHS... Porros excellent at set price delivers.. but as a defender rubbish.. teams are constantly looking to exploit him. And unless he's got paulinho covering him..frankly he's a liability. But Spence is an excellent defender... But as yet we haven't seen enuf of him on his natural side( RHS) to judge him going forward... Goin forward On the LHS he was next to rubbish.. but it could well be v v different on the RHS...

Agree- Udogie looks much better than Spence on the left from an attacking standpoint. Porro was awesome yesterday vs a weaker side and ripped them to shreds with his crossing. Porro is sometimes defensively lacking against top sides though. There is a balance there for now, but long-term we'll have to make a decision between Porro and Spence. Given that Spence is English, I think it's probably an easy decision but we'll have to see what the coach and club think.

Agree with a lot of other posters. The left looks so much more dangerous when he plays. Makes Odobert look better too!

Kid needs to find a way to stay fit.

Kid needs to work after hours on his end product.

Kid must never ever give up again...fight til the end for the team. Defending ain't glamorous, that's still the job.

He does that, he'll be an immense LB.

Ledley was often injured, bale, Rafa VDV, Anderton for the “old guard” would you question any of their lifestyle choices or professionalism?

I’m mainly pissed off with him because he’s stopped offering the final third threat and forward runs from his first season. Too happy to take the safe and passive option over the past year or so which really blunts his effectiveness.

I actually feel like this season he's started to offer that again. When he's actually been available he's looked far more like the Udogie we saw in his debut season: making forays into the box and cut-backs from the touchline.

Agree he was largely a bit crap last season, though.

He was killed by playing center midfield full back by mad Ange. Him Porro they got brutalised needs to unlearn all that nonsense. Play him LB get Spence and Porro competing at RB buy an elite LB. We'll be si much better .

if the club was serious theyd sell this turd ASAP, get a proper footballer in at LB who isnt so fucking braindead.
 
didnt even realise at the time that destiny dogshit slips for the vicario gaff too, so both goals hes actually in position to do better and hes pathetic in both, cant stand this useless cunt now. overrated pile of shit who doesnt even have enough desire nevermind ability.
 
Thought he was horrific again tonight. Time to cash in and try get a decent fee but anyone coming to watch him would just be horrified at what they see. Can’t defend,can’t attack,can’t cross,can’t pass and constantly looks lethargic.
 
Could maybe go as far as saying as he hasn’t improved at all since those first few games under Ange? Looks like a bit of a non entity player at the moment. Not enough attacking threat and poor defensively.

We need a fully fledged LB
