If that's the case then surely it's not a lack of commitment, but more a lack of faith in your own ability. Maybe this latest injury has been a heavy blow for him mentally. In any case there's not much substance to the story, and knowing who the messenger is I will not ponder it anymore.
As for Matty, I'd have to agree with Bob on this one. Breath of fresh air at the moment. I actually think MH's comment from a few days back about perhaps not needing strengthening was partly in reference to Matty's form.
