Buy having petrov as one of our best performers it highlights how shit we really are.
You need people who will change a game on the bench and that is not Stan.
He's talking as if the season is over whereas a couple of likely drubbings in the final two matches could see us down. Do your talking on the pitch Stan!! (then F*** off).
He has not been one of our best performers at all. He's had one game recently where you could say he was the standard we need in a central midfielder and that was the Newcastle match.It's mostly crab like ineffective passing, being bypassed easily and breathing through his arse 10 minutes into the second half. Reo Coker, for all his faults, is regularly outperforming him and has been far more consistently good this season.If he is in the starting XI next season we are in big trouble in my opinion and currently there is no way he should be in the side ahead of Delph certainly and Makoun.He'll do well in a more ponderous league though. Maybe a midtable Serie A side or something.
I'd keep him and let him go next Summer.
In what way is he a class performer? And if we're ever going to be a top 6 side again we dont need any kind of version of Petrov.
