He is one of our best players and played a massive role in our excellent start to last season.
Chris Brunt is a player who has the potential to decide important games, and has done on several occasions in the past. His goal to secure promotion in the game at home to Southampton three years ago, his late equaliser at Watford and goal at Doncaster Rovers during our last season in The Championship, as well as his two goals against Liverpool last season, show that he is a player who always comes good during the big games.
I'm still not convinced about him as a captain, but he has always got to be in the starting line-up.
