Man, the guy still drives me absolutely spare.
There was a moment first half on Saturday where someone played a long-ish ball into him in the middle of the park, and he took it down in-stride with his in-step on the turn and on the run - Messi couldn't had done it better. And then he drove forwards about ten yards before stopping and playing a really crap ball out right.
And then of course there's the penalty, which was absolutely brainless and cost us two points.
KR gave him a big chance to start the season, ahead of McGuane & Gorrin, and he's put in a performance that's probably going to see him banished again for a while (just like Swindon last year).
You watch Mark Sykes regularly, and all the pieces are there to create one hell of a player.....but he just can't seem to put it all together. I'm starting to fear that he never will now. Still too little end product and too many mental mistakes.
