He was outstanding last night. Work to do now for Retre and Al-Taay to displace him now.
The ball to release Sutton in the build up to the Payne goal and a through pass to set Payne away late in the first half thay lead to an opportunity stick in the mind, but he also did plenty of good work in tight spaces and out of possession as well. I've been a skeptic, but was convinced by him last night and hope he can kick on, a Rufer/Nagasawa/Conchie midfield should be pretty press resistant.

The passing on display in that midfield - Chefs Kiss
Only caught the highlights but it’s great to hear he’s continued his form from last week. Where I thought he was excellent and our midfield actually deteriorated without him in it. Would love to see him cement the position as his own after the amount folk had sung his praises prior to last season.
