There's no reason for him to ever play for us again. People will say you can't afford to have players on whatever (no doubt totally insane) wages we're paying him just sitting around doing nothing but I'd much rather that than the alternative because he is an absolutely ****ing wretched footballer.

He seriously upsets me. Somebody tell me if he did anything good in 20 mins today.

I have NEVER since him have a good or even half a good game for us.

Who paid £20m for that living stealer???

He literally runs round in circles in the middle of the park, asks for the ball occasionally, NEVER looks or passes forward, has he EVER had a shot for us?

Compare him today to what Harry did.

What is don't get is, if ypu"re not playing well as a midfielder, you're gonna put in a decent shift to make up for it, but he doesn't even do that, he's actually worse than Soumare. Could he have a fitness issue?

We may as well negotiate an early release. He'll never be anywhere near the level

Tottenham fans said he got some illness in regards to that and we still paid 20m lol

It's not his fault Rudkin paid 20m plus 5m add on's. Before he signed for us I looked at the Spurs forum and most of them thought he'd go to a championship side for around 2m if they're lucky or go on loan to a team like leeds

I’m in no way a Marti out man but I can’t get my head round the decision making process that brought Skipp into the game. Skipp is not fast, he’s not a great tackler, hes not physical, he doesn’t give the impression of having any great energy - he’s not particularly fast to press, he’s not a great passer, he’s no goal threat. He weakens the team when he comes on because he’s never anywhere near as good as the player he replaces. Wrexham ended up with a stronger team than they started with - James and Broadhead particularly. We ended up with a weakened team -because Marti thought that at 1-0 late in the game it was a great time to get Skipp on to do Skipp things which is basically mainly watch the game go by as an onfield spectator.

Tbf he looks like he would be picked last in PE and skip most lessons because he has asthma

Only strength is pressing/running and constantly over presses and gets turned out, I truly don’t see how he was Norwich’s player of the year in a year they went up, baffling, he is either completely shot of confidence or totally crap, either way he should be buried in the pecking order for a while until he gets it sorted, comfortably or worst player on a night where Bobby Reid looked good

Don’t see this strong pressing/running Skipp tbh. I just see someone off the pace and unfortunately way out of his depth.

Don’t disagree, think in an ideal world aka that Norwich year it was his game, I can’t understand how because he doesn’t look unfit just completely incapable
