Thankfully we are not in for him so we can put that to bed. We are missing a bit of steel in the midfield and countless games last season where we were bullied off the ball. League one is a physical league and we need someone who can control the middle of the park. I was hoping Thomas would have stepped up to the plate but he just isnt close to it.
Gut feeling is that TM will bring in a player in that mould. I really can't see how he can ignore the defensive weakness in the midfield.
I've Thomas perform well in a much more forward and creative role, the attempt to turn him into a defensive midfielder is flawed in my opinion, I don't think it is his natural game.
Probably one of my least favourite Coventry players (and we've had some dross! I guess I am.choosing to ignore the truly woeful!) Awful player. He is indicative of what's wrong with the game in the UK. He runs around a lot. Gets stuck in. But he can hard pass a ball!
