Wait for it...... I'm going to give Tom man of the match, I thought he was the best player on the pitch by a mile. He was the player we know he should be so 1 Thudd 2 tom 3 Huddlestone I'm going for a lie down
Huddlestone - his best game of the season so far and hopefully he is hitting top form in time for the play offs Snodgrass - got into some great positions and was a constant threat Akpom- channeled his energy and aggression in the right way A much better team performance than many of late. Need to keep that going and cut out silly mistakes
Tom - end to end quality and a goal Alan - great penalty save Robert - worked hard all game and was unlucky not to get something for it. Much better on the right than Elmo has been recently.
Huddlestone… Hernandez Gregor I'd like a special mention for Odubajo…. I know he gave the penalty away, but I can't think of one player in the team other than Gregor who seems to care more and tries harder. He's improved out of all recognition since he came here. Whether its going forward or defending and covering back, he's perhaps the one outfield player that for me leaves it all out there and thats all that I want from a City player thanks.
I'm pissed as so i should wait to see the goals but this game showed everything wrong with us. Turn it on and no one can live with us. But weak as piss when we dont and so weak and vulnerable. Tommy H looked majestic on the ball but didnt he give the ball away for the first goal and him and Jake didnt close down at all for the second goal on the edge of the box?? Whoever their LB is should definitely be in the running.
It was him who hit the cross for the first goal wasnt it john?? Brilliant that. Did Snoddy and Moses all ends up for the pen too. Brilliant save by Greegsy.
Hudd is clearly going to move to a pl club on a free at the end of the season and proceed to be brilliant next year isn't he
Patty hasn't time to vote, so I have his proxy. His exclusive stream wasn't clear, but he thought Waggy, Chilo and Raich Carter were the pick of our players.
he's got a lot to learn still - constantly miles out of position - if we're playing a flat back floor and he pushes forward, he's got to get back - he doesn't - first goal he was miles out of position - same with pen which is why he came flying in - he does it constantly - also he really needs to learn when to cross and to improve his crossing - too many ballooned right passed everyone at the far post - could be a real prospect but got a long way to go and doesn't seemed to have made much progress in the year he's been with us as he still keeps making the same mistakes - eg getting sent off against Derby for chopping at someone
I agree absolutely, he's got a lot to learn and his mistakes IMO come from trying too hard. I also think that instead of taking an option of doing it himself he tries to involve Snodgrass as an example which slows much of it down. Earlier this season he was constantly getting to the by line, now Snodgrass is there its like he's been told to leave it to him - yesterdays penalty was as much Snodgrass's fault as his, though he made the tackle. You could say that someone on the other side supposedly worth £15 million with one foot has as much to learn about defending and is caught out of position as often and his final ball options are often as poor!!..
agree about Robertson - excellent as wing back but fails as full back more often than not because he fails to cut out the cross
