He was great last season as well. He's the scapegoat of the team unfortunately so whenever we have a bad game he gets slated. The only thing he needs to improve on is his finishing as the two chances he had against Sunderland and Newcastle should have been put away.

Looks like a decision needs to be made then. Jedinak and KG and win 1-0 or Jedinak and Ledley and win 3-2

There's a reason why every manager we've had since KG joined has consistently played him. It's the same reason that none of us are football managers.

Sorry, but are we watching the same player? He is the new Tom Soares who also played magnificently when he didn't move or make a tackle. My two sons were at West Ham on Saturday and said he was useless. A recent survey showed that he made 1.6 tackles per game, with no assists and no goals. When we played Villa, Delph showed how a defensive midfielder should play, making himself available all over the pitch with great movement and making tackles. I prefer Ledley all day to KG.
Let's keep the ball this season! |

That's because his job isn't to score or assist goals, but to break up attacks and support the defence. Fair enough, he's had a few chances this season that he should have put away and didn't, but that is not his main priority. I don't understand why people slate him. He's by no means our best player, but he is very important for the team.

He's been great, but not the kind of class you need if you want to push up the league and go beyond the glass cealing into the top half

With KG I think its all about what he doesn't do as opposed to what he does do. Its nothing spectacular with him its just going around covering, stopping things happening and breaking things up. He does nothing fancy, noticeable or statistical. However as a few people notice when he's in the team we win, without him we tend to lose.
