    Are we now confident he's not going anywhere?

    He's gone from outcast, to probably our best player over the first two games of the season.

    It's almost like having a new signing.

    He was always totally underrated.

    He was excellent yesterday, the article in yesterdays program indicted he wanted to stay and fight for his place.

    Why did he come off yesterday? I imagine he was tired, but he was still getting all over the pitch.

    He's so valuable and clever. I always liked Quinn, but I suppose he just fell away from my mind until he came on vs QPR (Quinnesta chant needs to be louder). Yesterday just confirmed how good he is, his link up with Robertson seemed pretty special at times.

    He was everywhere yesterday. Tidied up so much and worked his ginger nuts off. However, he's not the direct replacement for Snodgers some had suggested we'd need. Having him there though should give Thudd a bit more impetus to be creative a bit further up the pitch.

    He was MOTM in my opinion.

    For some reason, he seems to divide opinion.

    For me, I seem to be notice the mistakes he makes more than the positive things. He wouldn't be in my starting 11.

    He's keeping Meyler out of the team.
    Bruce and the players are so flexible that we can set up based on our best players available if need be.
    Hopefully we will progress beyond Thursday in the Europa League and we can put out good sides in the League Cup and FA Cup while still having all our players involved.
    I bet Fryatt is kicking himself now that Long has gone.

    I doubt it. He'll be starting most games for forest. He will score lots of goals in that division as long as he stays fit.

    Get him signed up for 3 more years Brucey, fast.

    Just a great little player and a great pro.

    Massive fan of Quinn - he might not offer Meyler's physicality but he has so much more invention. I'm so glad Brucey has given him this chance to prove himself.

    His link up play with an attacking left back is excellent. It was with Brady when he was playing well in the championship and now Robertson this year. I've always been impressed with Quinn.

    He's one of my favourite players. 100% committed and very decent too, he's very capable and if he was one offered as part of the trio on offer to Blackburn to pick from, I'd be pretty damn annoyed. He is one of the most consistent players I have seen pull on a City shirt in recent years.

    I love Quinn's attitude to the game, a 100% grafter and a very good footballer, when we signed him from pigs I was well happy, I'd rather him than meyler I also thought he was our best player at Wembley, and motm yesterday but all put a massive shift in.

    We have to keep Quinn. He is a better all round player than Meyler. He doesn't give away silly free kicks in the danger area like Meyler always does. He was buzzing yesterday and ran himself to a stand still.

    A test of a good player is how much you miss him when he goes off. He ran himself into the ground yesterday but we didn't half miss him when he went off.

    He's the most mobile midfielder we have, I think

    And he looks bright as a button at the moment too.

    Big fan of Quinn and fast becoming a big fan of Robertson. Both had outstanding displays V Stoke but man of the match for me was Elmo

    Got to agree with Dan Kelly Quinn Robertson and Elmo were massive yesterday hope all 3 start on Thursday. In fact nothing wrong in starting the 11 that started yesterday's game.
