If the effort is not there, then I could understand, but that is not the case and has never been with him.
Never goes down hurt.
He's absent? I suspect people like you would be more than happy if he was absent during games, but again, that is simply not true.
He always gives 100% of what he has. People like you don't think that's anywhere near good enough, and that's fine. But to use that as a reason to call him a pea heart is ridiculous.
I'm firmly in the camp of dropping Chad and playing Trindall, but to say he's a pea heart is laughable.
