I think you are both correct but coming from different angles.
Oldgobbin,hes already played at this level,so obviously, when on the top of his game he can again.
There lies the problem.Only Chris will know if he wants it badly,as the saying goes,you are only as good as your last game.
Its nearly two years since he was in a rich vein of form,and in my opinion,he should have gone out on loan(like Jon Bateson did),to get him going again.
I ve seen loads of players go down this avenue,talented lads,whos fire in there belly goes out,and they drift out into non-league.
Didnt Radcliffes goalie play at man utd?,another lad,rated as the next big thing at man utd was realeased by Altrincham recently!
You can blame everybody,but in the end its how bad the player wants it,and how he deals with other distractions that come a young lads way.
