Don't get me wrong, I rate Guly and think he'll flourish in the Prem but a high workrate is not one of his more consistent attributes. If there is a loose ball or an opposition player on the ball not being chased down, it is often the case that it was Guly as the most proximal Saints player. He sets himself up for a fall in this department by having games where he works his absolute socks off (usually when he's played more central, eg tip of the diamond) and tracks back regularly. For me these games accentuate those when he doesn't put it in.

Who was that guy, used to play for us, who was a lot like this?
 
Guly for me is a top top player, and will prove his worth this coming season. His work rate is tremendous, he just does it all in what looks like a relaxed manner rather than sprinting around like a mad thing, but he certainly covers plenty of ground and is often seen mopping up in defence when needed even when we're winning comfortably. He gets slated for every mistake he makes, and doesn't get credit for what he does well so I was really pleased to see that he still feels so positive about his time here in England.

He would be one of the first names on the team sheet if I was picking it, and I hope we'll see plenty more of him this coming season

I am touched by your concern but must reasure you all that I am quite well and smiling all over my face as at last someone agrees with me regarding just how good Guly is.

As for not posting for a while I have to confess I have been in enemy territory.

I had to go to Gosport right down by the Ferry but I am safely back now and I have come to no harm whatsoever.

That is three times in a fortnight I have been down that way, to and from the Ferry Terminal for my holiday and now for a little spot of business.

The bloke I went to see was every bit as friendly and pleasant as Pompeymeowth and DevonFrattoniser, a very nice man.

I am getting to quite like these Pompey chaps a little bit.

Perhaps my prejudices need to be restored by a quick visit to the Portsmouth News Pompey Pages website!

I was also in enemy territory today and as I was making my getaway up the M275 disaster struck as my car broke down! I managed to limp into a nearby car park where I was almost resigned to falling into the hands of them lot forever more. Fortunately the kindly AA man was able to patch it up and heroically my old banger made it back to the safety of Junction 5. They really should make a film out of all that.
