There was one particular tackle where he just positioned himself in front of the oppo player to win the ball - gave me Morgan Schneiderlin vibes!

Downes is sick (again) so we may get our wish

Let's see what Jander and Charles are like together.

Downes and Charles together just seem to slow everything down to a standstill. Out of the two, I much prefer Charles, at the moment. 

I have taken against Downes for being a perennial, sickly, whinger.

For me he is our best signing. He's the vital cog, the metronome, the conductor. We've missed this type of player for so long and he'll no doubt soon be on the radar of bigger clubs.

He is class. 
 

With Charles to come back, Romeu to come into the mix and Bragg showing he’s worthy of minutes it is time to move Downes on in January because it’ll be tough for him to get minutes over those above and his style of play doesn’t really suit the way we play if we’re going to continue to be direct with the ball.

He was always class, got bogged down a bit in the later days of Stills tenure - but even his short cameos right at the start, even against the Skates, you can see his has agility on the ball and a real knack of arriving in and around the box. He's an upgrade on Will Smallbone and Downes in one player, him and Romeu could strike up something pretty special. What a player to learn from.
