I think it's interesting to compare him to NRC. Is he a worse player in any discernible way? I think he's probably slightly better technically although he makes the wrong choice a fair bit and is probably less composed?

  Has only just started playing there to be fair MC, previously played RB or Central Defence.

  I think he has all the attributes to be a good defensive midfielder.Excellant in the air, likes a tackle, not too bad on the floor either, and more importantly, has a bit of pace.Buy a Capoue, or a Livermore to play alongside him, and we will have a good strong defensive midfield.

He's done well, but playing Clark there today made us look much more composed on theball. Herd is a bit all action and tends tO charge around a lot I think, sometimes down blind alleys.
