I like Shenton, he's not perfect, but he's a good centre.He had a bit of a mare on Friday, dropping one pass and Atkins getting the better of him a couple of times. He was however fairly busy, being Johnny on the spot to pick up a couple of loose balls.
We don't get an awful lot of good ball to the cente channel, especially the right, so the fact he's not ripping it up doesn't suprise me, and I'm pretty sure the likes of Arundle wouldn't fare any better. It also mean that unitl we start getting more ball to the centre, there's not a lot of point spending mega bucks on a new one.
Wheeler fares a bit better as he's better from a standing start. Shenton is a guy that needs to be taking the ball moving to make the most of him.
