However anyone who thinks he is good enough for the first team, or even the top half of the premiership, has no eye for a player whatsoever.
He isnt good enough, move him on to a Championship side and let him find his level with the best of luck from us.
I agree, last season I was probably a bit harsh with some of the criticism I gave Gelson (even though he was shit! :P) but any player that gives 100% I will respect. Some players have it and some don't but if you work hard then we can't ask for much more if you keep getting picked.masterwig said:I tell you what, the lad kept going and looking for the ball. It was good to see such commitment.
I doubt he'll make it but a player that puts in a shift will always have my respect. He tried his best, if that isn't good enough then so be it but at least he's giving it a go.
