What I don't understand is just why people focus so much on his passing and crossing abilities when first and formost he is a right back, one of the best in the league and also regarded as one of the best for his country.
I for one feel that we are lucky to have such a good youngster who playing from right back manages to get themselves into those positions where they can knock a cross in because we certainly haven't had the balance of a right winger out there for the majority of the season.
I sincerley hope that the people who gripe about Eardley are not these who bemoan us selling off players like Trotman, Philliskirk et al as that would be sheer hipocrasy!
Get behing the lad, he's the best prospect I've seen at BP for years and is clearly an integral part of the team!
I for one don't want to go back to the days of rob Scott and Terrible Forbes who looked shakier than a parkinsons sufferer riding a penny farthing along a cobbled street!
Finally, how did Clegg ever play in Europe?? to be fair he had his best ever game in the disaster of an FA cup game against Blackpool and started looking like a half decent footballer then we got rid? Bizarre!
