To repeat Otis, he's just out of form in a team that's generally been poor this season. That doesn't make him a poor player or means his development has necessarily stalled.First time Eccles has not improved year on year. Either the natural drop in form that all youngish players experience, something gone wrong in his personal life or he is not happy with the new set up.
Hopefully the first and he will bounce back soon.
He was very good in the early part of the season, and he'll be good again, no doubt.
