Niigata Jack said:He's a very decent accomplished Centre Mid, been much maligned in the past by some for some reason.
cmajack said:Since the start of 208-2019 season he's played 160 games with 11 goals and just 6 assists. That's why he's much maligned, need far more from our midfield players than that.. When we had Fulton, Grimes and Smith playing together there was no creativity and even less goals.

Niigata Jack said:Is he there to score goals then, how many did Leon score how many has Grimes scored?
cmajack said:Leon was a different case, he was our defensive midfielder which left the likes of De Ghuzman to create and score goals. I've mentioned Grimes in my post and probably the main reason we didn't go up under Cooper was the lack of a creative midfield scoring goals, with the midfield 3 being Grimes , Fulton and Smith. There was a season where Connor Roberts and i think Rodon scored more goals between them than our 3 midfield players. Fulton seems capable of scoring 30 yd screamers in friendlies against Bristol rovers and i think Yeovil but unable to recreate that at championship level.
Niigata Jack said:Ok then we bench him/drop him and play who in his place?
He's more than worth his place in that first 11, in my opinion. An opinion that's just as valid as yours and anyone else's.
Niigata Jack said:He fits in well and is effective, hid discipline has improved as well, we have the players we have, so I don't know what you expect, for me he's done his job well for the most part at least.
PSumbler said:As I said a bang average Championship midfielder
So he will look good in a bang average Championship side
If we have ambitions, we need better.
IMO of course
Longlostjack said:Maybe old school but every midfield needs a grafter and Fulton is the boy. Creative midfielder we‘re sadly lacking.
Niigata Jack said:So not happy at his contribution over the years he's been here then?
I think he's been decent for us, opinions hey!
