Does he ever give the ball away?

Whilst he didn't set the world alight tonight against Newport (like the rest of the team) I can't remember him giving the ball away once. Talent.

Really disappointed with him tonight. He did nothing to stake a claim for a starting place.

I can't help thinking he'd be much better suited sitting deep and pinging it about. He certainly doesn't have an eye for goal.

Bollocks was he poor, he was steady and his delivery from set pieces was good.

He was nothing special tonight but certainly didn't play poorly. Very tidy in possession and played a few nice passes.

Steady at best. Lacks pace, but is definitely getting stronger

Very talented player, good left foot and always ready for the ball. Just needs a chance in the team to really develop properly. Derby come here saturday with Will Hughes and Jeff Hendrick in midfield. Two young players they aren't afraid to blood in the first team, rightly so.

Jesus the whole team was poor IMO (apart from Ince) maybe none of them should start Saturday?

Took two great near post corners in front of North stand in second half, both lead to clear chances. Rather JFC than Crofts.

I thought he was very assured, comfortable on the ball, and as others have said rarely gave the ball away. OK, nothing spectacular, but I thought he was pretty good.

He was always trying to get into the box as well which was good.

I thought he looked good, but it's hard to look any better after that performance from the team. I'm not quite sure what was missing, was it just desire? Newport's biggest game for 25+ years and one of our least significant.

Whilst nobody shone it was a really good opportunity for some to show that they want to be taken seriously......for me JFC didn't do that.

One could argue none of the players did that bar Ince who, IMO, was the best of a bad bunch.

I have to admit I thought agustien was the best on show. Ive never seen Ince play until last night and felt he was a little unlucky to be subbed. I need to see more of him before I personally can judge him as a player.

Metronomic in midfield. Will suit our OG style very well. Not finished article by any means but better than Crofts and deserving of plenty of minutes off the bench. He and Ince are ready to back up players like Bridcutt, Agustein and Orlandi in the middle. Dave can float about. Crofts can go do one (though yes was good 4-5 years ago else I get in trouble with certain fanboys)
