JFC is the weak link in midfield without a doubt, and now hopefully with the signing of Kayal and Dale on his way back then he won't get a start - I personally would loan him out in the January window
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
JFC - Please God make this the last time we have to watch him play in an Albion shirt...

I still have no idea what Casper's plan was with that free kick, I'm convinced if TK had played we would of won the game.

I agree, a lad of his age should be making a lot more effort. He is not good enough.

The lad has played a hell of a lot of football, not forgetting the travelling time, since the end of the regular season last year.
I'll hazard a guess he's played considerably more minutes/travelled miles than Sterling.
Who gets 10 days in the Caribbean, whileJFC has to go to Blackpool and play on a ploughed field.

This just about sums it up perfectly. As does @Symjym's earlier comment.

JFC getting a number of critical texts on SCR. Another bad day at the office for JFC then....
We are now interrupting this JFC thread with a Midnight In Paris Jazz score.

The normal tedium of JFC discussion will resume shortly.

Id be interested to know how many of those texts are coming from those at the game, which cant be many.

I think the main reason JFC gets the stick he does is due to the lack of progress we've seen since he broke in to the team.
When he made his debut aged 16, and got a run of games at 18 he looked like he was going to be the next big thing and we'd be lucky to hold on to him as a host of Premier League clubs would be interested in him. However, he's not a terrible play currently, but he's not significantly better than he was 2 years ago. The lack of progression is what frustrates most people I'd assume, rather than a lack of talent.

for me its not the lack of progression - its the lack of anything. of all the home games i;ve seen this year, he has done 1 thing once which was slightly interesting. other than that he is a waste of space & is blocking the place of someone else who could do a better job (could do, as we wont know because he is always bloody there (in the team))

Thank heavens JFC is not in the starting line up today. I think we will be more direct and creative with March and Teixeira in from the whistle.

Missed him? Where you even at the game? Tex showed more creativity and influence today than JFC has shown for the entire season.

Does Hughton pick his team based on the opinions and poll outcomes of NSC?
Would've made no difference anyway; JFC isn't a defender and you can't expect to win a game if you concede 3 goals from as many shots.

You are obviously a sandwich short mate.....our midfield was far more stable than usual......but why the hell did the new guy only arrive on 84 mins.....poor defensive setup from the start.

The way CH seems to be setting the team up, basically Tex and JFC are in direct competition for the same place - and Tex is a better player than JFC, end of. No disrespect to JFC. I do think it would be good for him to go out on loan for a bit, though - just to give him a break from all the flak.
