Just had look at the stats compiled by your good selves.There is a distinct tailing down of scores awarded by CL to JRS since the Portsmouth game(that seems along time ago). Is the season wearing down his talent? Has playing in what most CL fans would call a mediocre team blunting his skills rather than sharpening them? For me I would say he is drifting along in recent games, sometimes only getting involved briefly, as if he wasn't sure why he was there.Or is that the Kevin and Perry body language that is my bias? It must be tough when a young lad is growing up with the eye of the fans on them. Was that recent flare up a result of frustration or just asserting himself?
My summary would be
-very talented player
-fast/good reactions
- can slip past defenders
- still learning about playing others in in the penalty area
-sometimes a loose first touch but when he gets past that great ball skills, it just flows
-needs to think about defending and doing it the hard work as well
-he's scored goals but cost us some as well
- needs to look more businesslike on the pitch (just to keep me happy)
-maybe all this will change as he looks short of a goal atm
-temperent/atittude?
That's my summation of Mr "100%"
Def. a keeper, but of course I know we can't hope to

He is an ok player but disappears for games on end.
He will have a great performance for 2/3 games getting goals or assists, then he dissappears for the next 7/8 games then he appears again for another spell of 2/3 games before going missing again
He has potential but lacks consistency, he won't make the step up to the Championship next year if that's what Palace want, far far to inconsistent for that
I feel sorry for him because he is a young kid learning his trade and to expect him to perform week in week out is too much especially in the crap side we put out most weeks.
He's basically scored or assisted a quarter of our league goals which I think is decent for a young player coming into a woefully inconsistent side.
As a winger he will have good games and indifferent games. He has a lot to learn but we should never be resting our hopes on a 20 year old loanee.
I don't agree that he goes missing. From what I've seen he wants the ball and at least tries to inject some speed and urgency into our play.
We would be lower down the table without him in my opinion.
Will do well in the championship next season.yet to prove he will be a PL star but he has the raw talent.
On the whole, I think he has been a relative success. 10 goals from a 20 year old loanee is a very decent return.
There have been some games though where he seems missing. One of those players who pops up in moments rather than taking a game by the horns.
Gifted player, I love watching him, future Premiership player surely.
Will be an upper Championship, lower Prem player. If he is loaned out to a Championship team he will have better players around him and against him, so time will tell how far he can go.
Vital goals and assists. But that is something that stats/post match chat might not cover.
Next season he will go out on loan to a side in the championship.
Wheather he goes on to become a premier league player time will tell.
For me he has been great for us this season and I wish him well wherever he ends up.
As long as it ain't palarse.
Always looking to shoot when a pass would be the better option.
Can’t see him being a future Premiership player, on his current showing anyway.
He's a young winger always likely to blow hot and cold and arguably we've overplayed him as there's been little alternative. Remember thinking against Man United he was our only player that looked anywhere close to them on a technical level so I'd be surprised if doesn't get a Championship gig next season. Be interesting to see if he pushes on from there. Dread to think where we'd be without his contribution.
Think he's been our brightest spark. Nobody should expect a young winger to come out on his first loan and smash it every match, but he's done really well.
would look a different player in a much better team and he'll be playing in the prem in 2/3 years - sadly not with us
would keep him 100% next season if Palace decided to take pity on us and let him stay and continue his development
I think it’ll come with time and he definitely will have a career at the top end of the championship or even Prem
One of the few match winners in our side.
He's certainly not hitting quite the heights he did before but if we're in the position of expecting a teenage loanee in his first spell of "proper" football to carry an entire team, then he is not the failure.
He would be my favourite player if he was a permanent signing.
Decent player & too good for League 1......but tries too much to beat every defender twice over and needs to learn to keep it simple. At their respective ages Connor Gallagher was a better player. Maybe not as exciting but a better future talent.
But if we hadn't have signed him we'd really be in the poo now.
I fear for us next season without JRS, Sess, and conceivably Leaburn leaving in the summer.
He may well thrive in the championship next season on better pitches and around better players. With Zaha out of contract at Palace he might even feature for them next season, hopefully in the championship.
Having said all that, we are worse without him and I suspect any League One team would take him and most Championship teams too. I think he will go on loan to a promotion chasing Championship team next season.
