Look one off match ups man-on-man in single games mean nothing to me.  Look at the qualities of the player- the physical, mental and technical attributes. Eder - he can make the ball talk.  He has vision and he can pass a ball better than anyone in Dunedin - long or short he can do it.  And his energy is high.  He is a dream midfielder in the hole.  Tommy has fight and good balance and pace.  But vision and passing quality? No my friend.  Tommy is a stopper and a scrapper - fundamentally a defender with great physical attributes - yes he has the ability to go forward also.  But he's a natural RB or defensive RM/RW.  Can he hit a diagonal or a decent ball at distance?  Not that I've seen.  This is what he needs to work on.  Jude and 90min? Not sure what you mean.  His disciplinary record is good - he scores more goals than gets cards,  And if you ask anyone that has trained with him about his physical fitness - well you would hear he's at the top end.

Ball Talk? This must be a piss take. Mate if you got of Eder's d*ck and watched one of his games against a descent team then you would realize you've lost it. Yes he is perhaps technically the best player in the league, but what about when the going gets tough? The guy can't find a hole big enough for him to hide in the last game i saw against Caversham, dragged after 60 minutes when he had to run backwards and never had the ball in any space. 1/2 goals in the last two years against the top two teams is a poor return for a guy that can make the ball talk. You can't say he hasn't got the backup out there with FCB up top.
