Until he learns how to cross the ball accurately he will always be on the fringe of the team I am afraid.

I just don't think he is good enough at this level, he don't take player on and can't cross, he needs to go out on loan again.

Other than Harbro (and who listens to him :icon_wink) has said that he is a bad player. But NP clearly doesn't think he is good enough either for the team or the bench.
It may be that he has been available for loan but nobody has taken us (him) up on the offer.

Needs to do some serious improving if he is ever going to make it at this level. I can see why the fans like him, he's tenacious and loves to run with the ball at his feet, but his technical ability is awful. He can't cross, he can't take corners very well, his passing and shots leave much to be desired and his decision making is rubbish too - he might be able to get some better crosses, passes or shots off if he knew when to release the ball, but he doesn't.
I've seen him in a few reserves matches, most recently against Sheff U, and he doesn't show any signs of having worked on these aspects of his game. Adams has made the bench and featured in some games because he's knuckled down and improved, and it doesn't seem that Gradel has improved or made the effort to.

Tbh i thought gradel was always pretty decent at corners, and the fact he was given the number 7 shirt at the start of the season made me feel he must have been in pearson's thinking at some point. However it seems he clearly hasn't done enough to impress in training
Gradel was on the bench against Swansea and Barnsley.

Good heavens Kingy we agree.
Max Gradel is very young and I believe he has the potential to be better than Lloyd Dyer eventually. When he played at the end of all season he was morer aware and more disciplined than he had been at the start of the season. I hope his talent will not go to waste.
Max also deserves credit for that wonderful free kick he scored which for me was the best goal of last season.

Oakley has never been a winger whenever NP puts him there he flops and so does the team

It would make sense. Look at the good it did for the young Mr Adams.

I am hoping he does not go the way of Porter and falls from grace altogether. I think he is a good player, who deserves a chance at this level.
