He’s being picked because NJ really likes him as a player. He praised him A LOT at the end of last season and he’s played him a lot too. Can see some frustrations starting to form but there’s nothing more to it than him being an NJ type player
I believe he was 20 thirty days ago. Jones and McLaren select him and play him. So brought through by nonentity Steve Avory at Charlton, but selected to play by guys who have managed England, ‘Boro, Stoke, Charlton, Luton, Twente, Derby, Southampton, Newcastle, Jamaica, QPR, Forest and Wolfsburg. What do those guys know that the critics of Karoy amongst our support don’t know?
It is frustrating when he gives the ball away a bit too often and indeed when a simple pass isn't weighted properly but anybody who watched him play at youth level would have been struck by his first touch passing game. It is harder to do this at first team level and teams will target him a bit but I am confident it will come good for him. I don't think it will take long and people have to factor in his age and get behind him a bit IMO. He still provides benefits to the team for his workrate while things slot into place.

That Charlton and Jamaica are lacking in midfield?
His distribution needs to improve but I am certain it will. I think his reading of the game, movement and closing down are all excellent. He also plays forward and looks to make things happen, where some of our midfielders with better passing stats predominantly pass sideways and backwards for the simple option.
