Seen MPH play 15 games for us now, and I'm still not exactly sure what to make of him as a player.
You can tell he's been through one of the top academies - a bit like McGuane, his technique is good and he's clearly had a bunch of training in maintaining possession. He's reasonably quick and reasonably strong but neither is impressive enough to be a calling card on its own. He's got decent defensive instincts as well......but then at other times, he comes off as way too casual, especially with his final ball or attempts at goal. Only the one goal and no assists since he joined.
Getting the sense that he's a good player, but not nearly as good as he thinks he is. I was impressed that he backed himself with a short term prove it deal in January, but I doubt very much that he's done enough with us to move up in the world next year. Unless he has a big end to the year, I suspect he's looking at League One next season or someone like Lincoln at best......(would we want to keep him if we stayed up......maybe, but only at a reasonable wage as a squad player)
