He’s usually magic for half an hour. Having him in the side is like going into a bank, with a key to the safe in you pocket. One moment, one pass. Just the same yesterday ; a fabulous finish for 2-0, then anonymity. The Gas ran through him and over him. He jogged about without intent when it was all hands to the pump after we conceded. Away from home he gets no protection from referees, and he’s knocked over routinely. The difference when he was withdrawn was immediate. The Gas were then unable to put real pressure on our back three, Home games are different; the crowd let the Ref know when he is being roughly handled. It’s a fine balance which is probably the difference between winning and losing.
