I think you’re being a little harsh there. He was a decent enough player back in his day.
Of course his day was several years ago and I can’t say I’m very keen on seeing him in the first 11, but if he can provide cover as well as coaching then we get two for the price of one. Assuming he's a competent coach, of course.

Wish we had a few more coaches bringing through our youth who had that average a career...
, Never forget that hat trick he scored for palace. going from playing full bac? the prev week i believe, to answering a bit of an sos by warnock i believe to play up front and the returning a hat trick, decent technical footballer hopefully he can pass a bit of that on.

This is the version of him talking about Merson's reaction on Sky Sports, filmed out at the Cat & Fiddle.

Impressive, but if he has what it takes to score goals at this level he would be playing up front at least some of the time. He has played a lot of games and the coaching side makes sense if there is a vacancy in our set up, last season he was better than his first season but still part of a defence that wasn't tight enough so I hope he isn't required to play as much in the coming season.

Stupid comment. Neither Mourinho, Wenger or Ferguson were that much as players but they've gone on to be excellent coaches, whereas a number of excellent players have failed miserably as coaches. You don't have to be a good player to be a good coach.

His playing days may be almost over, but I think he has leader qualities and could potentially make a pretty decent coach so good news for me
