Nice little coy Robins comment about maybe a permanent deal, or maybe not. The cheeky little elf.

Have listened to the full 24 min interview on iFollow. Turner asked him whether he had thought about whether he could get mcnally permanently. Robins spent about a minute telling turner off for asking the question (because he doesn’t talk about other teams players) and then said ‘I doubt you could tell me a single thing that I haven’t thought of, there’s a new challenge for you’

Those interviews are hilarious. Robins and Turner clearly have a fairly good relationship but Robins often takes the piss out of him

Need a 27 year old McFadz alike, him and a left footer and I’d be very happy.

Yes, but Rose has also been dragged down by the general malaise. Dottie was a lot better with some solidify beside him, for to see if the same happens with Rose

Looked good today, exactly what we've been missing.

Looks miles better than Rose on that showing.

Best debut by a Centre Back I have seen for the City in a long time. Won his headers, stood up to their attackers, knew where the space was to relieve pressure. Fingers crossed he carries in on in this vein.

At least Fadz will have someone his own age to talk to! Probably got more pace too.

He was great. Positive in the way he defends, will be a threat from set pieces and looked decent on the ball. Surely will improve to with more game time. Looks like a good one.

It does. I’m wondering if this isn’t our best XI at least at home:

Wilson
McNally Fadz Doyle
Eccles Hamer Sheaf Bidwell
Palmer
Godden Gyokeres

S: Moore, Panzo, BNC, JWE, Allen, Maguire, Walker

IF we sell Vik, I’d give Burnley what they paid for him upfront with add ons. He is a very good CB

We’d struggle in midfield with that team , we’d basically have 3 players ahead of the ball watching us defend

Echo other people's thoughts.

We have been crying out for someone strong and stable at the back, and he provided that today. Very strong debut.

Had a similar discussion with someone after the game.
However, it was Huddersfield.
Let's see how he does next Friday.

Very good & I expect he'll get even better with games too. He played within himself a little imo, choosing the safe option with his passing etc. He has a lot more in his locker which I'm sure we'll get to see as he gets fitter & used to the way we play.

Said this during the game. Playing the safe pass whilst he gets familiar with his teammates’ movements etc. Played a lovely diagonal towards the end of the game which showed he has far more range.

For a young player who hasn't played at this level, he looked incredibly assured I thought.

Didn't really show it too much yesterday but he's better on the ball too imo.

Thinking McNally / Fadz / Doyle is not a bad back 3 at all. Look forward to seeing that.

McNally did all the basics well yesterday which is what we need.

Did everything I wanted him to, really played the Fadz role of getting his head on it and getting it clear. Hope he grows even more throughout the rest if the season!
