I have noticed Copps hasn't had as many opportunities to get on the ball and run with it lately.When Sean was here, I'm sure we used to see a lot more of him dribbling the ball through midfield.
He is loyal now and he is playing out of his skin, but he could not get of the bus quick enough when Forrest came calling
...just makes me laugh when people shout loyalty
Funny int it? I've spent 10 years tearing out my stubble at Coppinger's inability to regularly make the right decision when the moment comes to relinquish control of the ball. He usually crosses when he should shoot, shoots when he should pass and passes when he should cross.But if he HAD got that ability to pick the killer ball, we'd have seen him play no more than a slack handful of matches in the hoops. Because he'd have been in the top level for the past 10 years.So I've come to accept that I' watching a flawed genius. The most talented player that I have ever seen playing for Donny. One who ghosts past defenders like the ball is glued to his foot. Then who puts a cross into a no-mans-land the size of Luxembourg. But I still wouldn't have swapped him. It's been an honour and a privilege to watch him this past decade and it'll be some job to replace him when he's gone.
I bet he seriously does look a world beater in training.
