I watched that back and I think we were a bit tough on him. He was out of touch, and he’s always been a big boy.
I think most of us judged on the first few touches after he’d flown half the way around the world.
I noticed his passing and other details was really a step up once he got going. He’s still been training as a professional player. He still had cardio fitness, but not game fitness.
His pace has always been a concern for a RB, but, well, it many ways he’s Piper with a bunch of technique. Takes a great dead ball. Scores headers. Used to the USA.
I guess he’s in camp to see if he can fit in. He’s also experienced.
He’s the kind of player who can steal goals.
