What do we think is going on with this guy?
Since that fantastic cameo at Motherwell a couple of weeks back he's barely featured which has surprised me, felt like that was the game that would really elevate his presence in the team but it appears to have went the opposite direction. I get he's got some tough competition ahead of him but is it just that? Carrying an injury? Not doing it in training?
The gaffer will have his reasons obviously, I'm just not sure what they are.
That Jermaine Defoe must either be utter horse-dung or showing a terrible attitude at training given how little game time he's had ...

The guy is a project if you ask me. In years gone by it would be unthinkable to pay £2.7m for a player (other than Pena) and for him not to play every week no matter what. It’s a measure of where we are as a club and a team and it feels good!What do we think is going on with this guy?

Have people been writing him off?People writing a boy off not even 6 months in need to talk a long walk off a cliff. Idiots.
The boy has a contract and will be an important player for us.

You're probably right TBH. Although I actually thought he came to us with better match fitness than Roofe did who has featured more prominently, despite his injuries.
Perhaps it is just as simple as Gerrard easing him in gradually. Personally I'd like to see more of him when the opportunity arises.
