He’s looking an excellent player and has done since mid-to-late November.

I do feel (especially in light of what my WBA supporting friend has told me), that regardless of how utterly abject we’ve been at times this season, that VK has shown that he can develop talent.

He has been very good for us at times, but it's not been good enough to get us clean sheets or results that often.

So it doesn't get appreciated.

He doesn't, because he hasn't looked as impressive in the PL as Harwood-Bellis looked in the Championship.

For some reason, Jordan Beyer - who hasn't looked as impressive in the PL as Jordan Beyer looked in the Championship - hasn't had anywhere near as much criticism.

Dara is a very decent player who is improving all the time.

Up to January 9th he was the fourth quickest player in the Premier League this season.

Turned in some impressive displays in an unsettled defence, often left exposed by an overrun midfield.

I was very critical of him at the start of the season - based on early performances I thought he wa a shocking signing.

Without question he has improved the most this season - long may it continue

To me he has improved but still a poor signing ....results no better draws against Luton and Fulham

There is not one player i am convinced about ... i think Odobert and Koleosho have good potential ...Foster played well at Villa but has not done a lot ..Berge a few good runs from midfield all season ..the rest apart the new signings who i have not seen much have been poor..

For me well done Dara but if he is our current best player i am not surprised we are bottom ...

The last season with Dyche and this one has really kicked football out of me after a truly amazing season last year ...the board put up lots of money but the recruitment very very poor...very dissapointed

hard to find form when you are made of glass (sadly)
