Dont mean to be critical, but I cant agree with you there.
Thought the big man was immense and led the line well, patricularly in the first half. Thought the number of times he plucked the ball out the sky when it was launched at him from 80 yards showed excellent touch and control and allowed our midfield to get up and support him. He also brought other players into play with some neat footwork at times.
That said, the miss WAS an absolute shocker!
He's not up there with Big Lucas yet, but I think Broonie has done well to identify someone who can at least have a go at filling his shoes.
As for MoM, thought everyone played pretty well. Hately was probably the most disappointing, but thats only measured against his performances last season.
Saunders and Reynolds merit special mention but I think for sheer impact in the first half it has to go to Murphy (like many others I would give it to Humphrey every week if the final product was there. Hopefully that will come!).
Overall, I should be gutted at not making the group, but for some reason 'm not. I just feel proud that we once again have a team that is capable of playing attractive attacking football. Gives us hope for the rest of the season, and who knows,maybe next year!
God Bless Craig n Archie.
