Went for Boyd, best I've seen the kid. Dirty had a very good game as well.

Sanchez by a mile. Changed our side, a lot of it was subtle, but if we want to keep the ball and move up the pitch Sanchez is our best option. Over 40 completed pass to 6 incomplete, which were right on the sideline so weren't dangerous losses of possession.

Boyd was surprisingly good, he tried things, which is more than can be said for the rest of the team.
I can't really understand Waffles, he never takes any kind of risk, surely he's got the class to turn and shoot, or beat a player and fire in a cross.
Other than that goal which was wrongly disallowed, I thought Ifill had a poor game. He did show his class occasionally, but he coughed up possession a lot. Which doesn't show up on the stats so now I don't trust them.

Yeah I'd say Sanchez probably best on park for us.

Boyd was bloody fantastic though. Think he's proven his worth as a bench player.We have to remember he is still 17 (may have actually turned 18 now?). But he's still so raw, and he's shown vision well beyond his years. Definitely has a football brain, and the skills to match

gave it to Sanchez, just pipped Boyd cos he scored, great to have him back, and to see the two teenagers looking better than some of the older heads.

Sanchez for me> great return from lengthy layoff. Boyd went well and was quite impressive at times just not sure how you can give a MoM award to a sub who played 29 minutes and missed penalty.
