I must admit, I had my reservations about the Greek lad. That said, whilst his performance was good in the current context(he is never going to be as good as Fletch or Batts in that role) after his well taken goal and his antics after, welcome aboard, your one if us now! Absolutely loved that, taking shirt off, hugging the ref whilst he was booking him etc!
Matt Ward has been mentioned and really deserves to be. I'm not saying Cameron Sangster is talked about too much, but to be fair Matt Ward should be talked about just as much and he proved why again tonight.
One name who hasn't been mentioned yet, who I think should be is, Rio Garside. The game was turned on its head when he came on, great ball into the box which would lead to the winner, so full of energy and spark. Don't forget it was him which changed the last game in the FA youth cup as well. This lad deserves a start for my money against City. He is for me, our most promising first year!
Great to see Tom Purrington doing the biz again. It is hard from the Granstand to tell but I'm still not sure, Hodges is the right man to be captain. I like Harry but he seems very quite and unconfident to challenge the officials when need be. Not judging by that game but from having seen them all at pitch level I am amazed Elliott Crawford isn't captain out of all the apprentices. I think that role would excel him as a player and as a person. I don't think Harry will develop any further with it and if anything will only burden him. ( just my opinion and just an aside)
Buzzing the boys proved me wrong about a lack of goals though, all the very best against City, this is a massive competition for them, so go out enjoy it and just do your best!
