Big Marv

[Newholland]

Terrific character from the big fella last night,dreadful mistake ( it happens) but showed his true colours, didn’t get to him, delighted for him to clear off the line and preserve our lead. Good to see both central defenders playing so well on the front foot, Keogh is really showing his quality too. Well done lads UTMP

 

[Scaramanga]

Yep, he's still young and growing into his role, he's made a mistake and was punished. It will be a massive learning curve for him. I doubt we will see that happen again this season.

Going to happen from time to time it's the way we play.
The two centre half's break left and right leaving us a four in midfield so when their forward line try to close down in creates space in the centre of the park.
Unfortunately Marv didn't get rid of the ball quick enough but what a player he's turning out to be.

So a very short learning curve?

Agreed.

I thought last night, had Maxwell been in goal and seen the player approaching inside, he'd have probably screamed at Marv to get shut of it (not a slight on Grimshaw, just think that communication will take a while to come). But with players like Maxwell and Keogh around him he'll keep getting better.

Part and parcel of having a young team and bringing players up the leagues - you see the ones that can cut it learn and develop in real time. We're still a bit naive at times but absolutely heading in the right direction. Really exciting to be witnessing it.
