I like him and I want him to do well. During the game I imagined bringing a new supporter to the game. If I lied to them and said, we've just got Madsen back from a years injury and he is apparently good. And we have Vale, who is good with his feet but slow, has been booed by the crowd for the last year . the newbie would probably say Madsen was having the better game
I thought Vale played well and was a handful early on. I would prefer two up front but I can see him at the front of midfield collecting and moving the ball forward. As with all players, after 20 minutes (which included an assist) I made my forever decision on him this will never be changed whatever the evidence.
I wouldn;t complain about any of our players. A few weren't perfect. Dunne and Mbengue (spelling) spring to mind. The important thing is, we needed the win badly and they all battled hard for the win. The 2 week break should help all the newbies and those returning from injuries. I think we will be stronger the next few weeks.
