He brings a lot more to the table for our game than he takes away !!!! One of our best players no doubt I’m a constant believer in that Jay defends the far post well aerially. He gets his body in a good position in the main, jumps early and puts the opponent off, even if he doesn’t win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reads the game well and is aggressive in the tackle. Yes he is small but I that is undeniable but I very rarely see him exposed. Not sure where this is coming from tbh It’s just my opinion . What he had over Kelly was experience and I know who I’d prefer to have in my side ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 He does move the ball forward nicely when he's played in MF. Wins a lot of ground I always like a player happy to dribble the ball forward rather than instantly looking to get rid of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was more his physique than his height and not great positioning. If I recall correctly he was just back from injury so a bit rusty. He, like quite a few others, needs to up his game though. The talent and the potential is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say Ashley Cole has at least 8 or 10" on him. I can't really see why he can be compared in any way with AC. Not in the same league at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of men struggle with this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
