We've got him on loan. Is he any good? I was talking to some other Brighton-based Fulham fans last night and the consensus was he is but doesn't fit in with Hughton's formation which is why he's not played much recently.

Better when given a run in the team.

I thought he was superb when he had a decent run in the team. I'll miss him.

He is ok as a cdm to break up play but doesnt use his height or strength to the full. Not top Championship quality will be ok midtable.

What an absolutely brilliant post BG.

You can tell when a team is on the UP and the once MIGHTIER have fallen. The fans get all condescending when referring to the others being mid table........Absolutely Brilliant. I love it

Can be immense but can also lose concentration. I liked him, not sure Hughton trusts him. I think he'll do well for you and become a fans favourite if you give him a run. Often looked one of our best players under Oscar

I thought he was superb in a midfield 3 where he played protecting the back four. On occasions he bossed the midfield completely, big tackles, covers a lot of ground etc. His passing is okay, nothing special, but overall he was very exciting and has a similar gait and poise to a young Viera.

That all said, in a midfield 2 in a 442, he has lacked a bit of dynamism when he has played. We've been blessed with the form of Kayal and Stephens, which highlighted a bit lacking in Ince's game when he came in, and his confidence nose dived because of it I think.

Still think there is a quality Championship midfielder in there, but does need a favourable system and a run of games to build up his confidence. Look forward to him coming back a better player after a spell with you! :thumbsup:

His back pass during the Derby match was not a good moment for him, and sort of sensed he would be going on loan somewhere soon.

OK in a 4-3-3. First touch is poor and passing isn't really good enough. He looked like he was making progress year before last but has gone backwards since. There is a good player in there somewhere.

As others have said, we have very rarely played a defensive midfielder this season which has become his specialist role. Leave him doing that and he'll provide your back 4 with outstanding cover. You should then hopefully stop leaking so many goals.

Showed great promise but fell out of favour and doesn't get a look in nowadays as we don't set up with a holding midfielder.

He is a good athlete but he isn't a particularly gifted footballer. I'd say his concentration and decision-making are his biggest weaknesses.

Having said that, he will never shy away from a challenge. If he shows the kind of form he did for us a few seasons back then he will be a good acquisition for you.

Exactly this. With a proper run in the team he can be a very good defensive central midfielder. However I think he has more talent than that and if his confidence improved with a run in the team I think he could still be the premiership type we all hoped he could be. The goal at Swindon was what he could be with confidence.

Loses the ball too often, but usually wins it back with a great tackle.
Defensive Midfield is his role.
For a big man in professional football it is strange how he has never learnt to head the ball though.
