Chris Herd

[Exeter 77]

I thought right back was his best position. He had that one good game there against Wolves and never really pkayed there again. I think he once scored a hat trick for the reserves from right back in a 10-1 win against Arsenal.

I don't get what people see in Herd. He runs around a lot and kicks people. I see him as an unfortunate relic of the McLeish season. Wouldn't have got a contract under any other manager

Snap.  His all round game simply isnt good enough.

I'd have to disagree. As a defensive MF he has a great all-round game.
I think he's been hard-done-by in the Lambert years.

[Matt C]

Yeah it might be my recollections being tinted by time but I thought he looked alright in defensive midfield.

[Louzie0]

Always liked him. Hope he stays.

[MyDadIsBiggerThanYourDad]

Always liked him. Hope he stays.

Me too.

NO NO NO NO NO!!!

he just runs around into complete blind alleys and gives the ball away all the time

I keep saying this because I think I must be the only person to have this opinion, but I thought he did very well when stuck in at centre half for us.

I'd genuinely have him there ahead of either Clark or Baker.

This is the classic out of sight out of mind , player becomes better when not seen scenario.
He's a mid-table championship player at best.

Or maybe just think he's a useful player to have around?

Given our current paucity of options, and his versatility, he's one I'd like to see us keep.

[Chico Hamilton III]

I wonder how Roy Keane will handle the Herd situation?

Yes I am in the think he is a decent player and definitely no worse than Clark and Baker.

[silhillvilla]

I'm not sure. If I'm honest I'd file him alongside - Hogg, Bannan, Lichaj, etc.
Basically nowhere near good enough.

[Bully2345]

He is utterly dreadful. I don't even know what his best position is because he is equally inept wherever he plays

Correct, I doubt we'll see him near the first team again.

I would genuinely rather keep him and treat him as a third choice centre back than sign Senderos.

I really mean that, too.
