Just one question really............



WHY ? He`s so ordinary. Beats me how he gets a look in.

Personally he has never impressed me but football is all about opinions and how boring would it be if we all thought the same

David Martot is a quality footballer. He was our best player against Huddersfield.

disagree, think this was a rare positive blip on the radar, almost all other games he has seemed anonymous...

we desparately need a new wide man, as we cant afford to have martot, cox and robinson as passengers in the game when they are our supply line to the front men

I don't mind him. I think he's quite a decent footballer. He's just not a provider of goals or a 'winger' in the traditional sense of the word. Therefore, when the rest of the midfield is full of more players who can't create, he looks poor. If we had a couple of flair men capable of fashioning a chance for the forwards, he would look a lot better imo.

That's the problem though. If he's not a provider of goals OR a 'winger', then what is he? What's his job?

I think he's a midfielder who can pass a ball, and does the proverbial "job." If you put him into a Thomson/Fraser/Hammond role, he might do well. He's just not got the tricks to be played wide and expected to deliver chances.

Now that, i agree on. He can play a simple pass and makes a few tackles.

As a winger though, he's hopeless, and contributes next to nothing. When Fraser was played there he wasn't any worse

perhaps if we get this Levin fella on the left wing and we can push cox back to the right?
