His inability to release a ball when he's running with it is incredibly frustrating and cost us 1, possibly 2 goals last season when he lost it in key areas. But his work rate is fantastic and agree he played well yesterday even if there were a couple of examples of the aforementioned failures...

Maybe old fashioned, but for me you go man for man for the get go. Too much ambiguity and finger pointing with zonal and hybrid systems are worse. There's your man, stick with him, if he scores it's your fault

Same. And at the price I cant think why I didn't.

Reffed more than 1 game I was involved in as a youngster.

There must of been. They didn't get going mu h, but when they did it was pretty loud. Thought we were loud, not sure if that came across

This time last year his performances were one big lapse! He's improving all the time, so yes, he's not the finished article but he's getting better and better.

Yeah, yesterday was a bit of an anomaly. These type of games happen.

I've been banging on about his physicality for ages but he looks much stronger and fitter now as I suspected he would after a full preseason, particularly one working with Jones.

Cyrille had what I refer to as soft feet. A big, powerful man, but he had a deft touch and superb control in his locker but could unleash his raw power when required. Sillett brought out the best in him, but I still remember him most fondly for his performance in one of my favourite ever city...

I've been on it since 8 this morning. Unravelling this comment has been challenging. So just to be clear, and to make sure Ive covered all bases and don't offend anyone, Snoz, Cyrillie, Fernando, Pipkin and Hobo are all legends!

Not sure if I'm missing something here but I've had it for ages! But anyway, thanks, 2 legends.

Had wondered recently where he was. Great to hear he's OK. Enjoy the sun both of you!

Stop it

Good news

Happened a few minutes from the end but he saw the game out. Hopefully nothing serious but I agree, it is a worry

Tactical masterclass from the fella who collapsed in the stand. Totally changed the game

Yeah, the consensus seems to be whether he moves or not Hughes will be in the EPL next season. A player with that sort of hype around them will come at a cost, not just the fee, but also the wages.
