Any midfielder at the club gives us more over a long period . Yea they will be on a lot more money but I don’t pay their wages. Because someone runs more doesn’t mean they care more. Arter can’t even get a look in or a run of games. He’s won 5 games in his 41 starts Yates has. Sooner Forest fans stop accepting mediocrity the better. Arter is an established player who can’t even get a look in. When he plays he has to play alongside the worst footballer in the league. Colback and him struggle next to him.

Rubbish. Do you think Barry Bannan, Swift, Adam Clayton etc run about like a headless chicken like Yates? Nah because they are footballers with footballing brains. He’s useless. Bar effort he has zero to offer us that the next person can’t do. Positioning is appalling hence why he probably does so much running. He doesn’t even pick men up, he points and passes his own man on. Very bad player and his effort isn’t fooling me at all. If he wasn’t from the acadamy not one fan would rate him.

All anyone ever says is he gives his all. He’s dangerous with and without the ball. Headless chicken. I’d rather have a lazier quality player but there isn’t a lazy footballer there’s just some that don’t run as much as others. Yates has to run or he isn’t a pro.

Everything about him screams league one to me. I have read through a couple of people’s opinions on Yates. All I ever see in his defence is his effort, his work rate, he tries and gets in the box- it’s not good enough. The lad is so far out of his depth playing for a club that wants promotion and we are seeing the downside of that with how we have regressed as a team since his constant arrival within the fold. It’s easy to see a scrappy game on a weekend and watch Yates shine with his desire and commitment to mix it up. These games are becoming more and more frequent due to his lack of football ability and endeavour. It’s the butterfly effect with him and it’s killing us. He passes straight back the way he’s facing or backwards, if it’s forward it’s basic. His pass completion is early 70% in his career! Harry Arter for an example has averaged 85% over how’s whole career. Yates was 52% v millwall by the way. The lad has worse tackling stats than Colback Arter and sow aswell as interceptions. He brings nothing to Forest but effort and commitment but if you can find a player his age that doesn’t have them attributes then good luck to ya. He is forever pointing and shouting at other Forest players on the ball, telling them where to ply the ball, HE doesn't KNOW HIMSELF. The lads absolutely average and people that really understand football will either realise or eventually realise. Once Hughton signs better he will be no where near our 11. He can’t shoot he can’t pass he isn’t amazing in the air. He can’t travel with the ball. I could also send anyone in this group privately atleast 5/ 6 clips a game of him letting runners glide past him and get sucked in. He nearly cost us within 60 seconds v Preston. I watch him, he’s the most basic midfielder in this division and your centre midfielders should be the best players in any side. Whilst he plays we will never succeed.
