Well he sort of does warrant it, played the most matches in our last 4 and a half years of anyone I think, been one of the top centre backs in the league this season (Ranked 4th best in the division of anyone with more than 25 starts from centre back). Not at all a liability thanks to his pace and physicality, our only captain and hopefully, he'll get the best out of the competitive nature of our defenders in trying to get a spot in the side. If he plays well, I don't want him out, don't care who has to be benched, you play your best performers and he's been one of our best.

No players warrants it. We are talking about today, not 2 or 3 years ago. He is like rick said vastly overpaid and he is a bag of nerves on the ball. Yes he has pace but a centre half needs composure which is clearly lacks. It's no fluke that his best season was alongside an organizer in dunne. We need to move him on nowI played sunday league football today.
Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.
I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.
We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!Comment

Is that your footballing instincts telling you this as a player?No players warrants it. We are talking about today, not 2 or 3 years ago.

His captaincy may be confirmed but where the hell's he going to play? Lynch and Hall are surely the first choice CB's, and Perch is the first choice RB. Even Caulker has a major point to prove this season. In fact I'd even play Furlong at RB ahead of Nervous. Club captain I can maybe understand, but team captain has to be playing regularly and right now I can't see that happening as he's gone down the pecking order.Comment

This. Captain Nervous is fourth choice CB for me. Fifth if we'd kept Clint like we should have.His captaincy may be confirmed but where the hell's he going to play?

Spot on Stan!.... Also make Hall captain and be done with it for farks sake. All this Nervous derserves it b0ll0xs, he's a highly paid footballer at a football club, thats it!! Hall is is the future and a farking good player to go with it... Team/club captain DONE!!..... (btw can u tell its Monday morning by my tone - talk about pi$$ holes in the snow.....)

spot on rick!One of the highest earners now at our club. And to be fair he don't warrant it. Very average cb. Plenty of better centre halfs in this division . Should be looking to move him on really. Liability and never a captain. Hopefully hall and lynch will make him a bit part player this year.

Funny how only west and Nasser rate him, probably 2 of the worst posters to assess a player in terms of abilityI played sunday league football today.
Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.
I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.
