Has to be Niko Katic for me. I thought Goldson started the game better but Katic really stormed into the match and dominated brilliantly at the back. A late booking perhaps spoilt his copy book but that's not a big deal when he plays so strongly. I won't get involved in Goldson Katic argument but the central defence and Barisic were immense. Tav needs to up his game as he was poor in sections of the game. Morelos should have buried the first-half header. Missed chances like that could cost us dear. Jack and Davis were also excellent and Jordon Jones also deserves a mention for the time he was on. I was totally frustrated by Ojo, he just looks so disinterested in fighting for the ball. The shot after Morelos was blocked just looked like he shit his nappy instead of attacking the ball full throttle. All bookings are now rescinded so we start with a blank canvas. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think people realise the amount of ground he is covering in this new formation, without a winger in front of him he is hitting the byline one minute and back in our box the next. We do need to vary our play but like it or not we do still rely on him and you might not notice him when he's there sometimes but you'd certainly notice it if he wasn't, a lot of what we do goes through him. Surprisingly perhaps, I don’t think about MOTM in terms of “fault”. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say he was MOTM I just said he put in a very strong performance, I responded to your point about us have problems relying on him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty 1,958 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Katic was a warrior and never gave an inch all game. Was unlucky with a couple of headers at corners too. The aggro at the end of the game stemmed from one of the Legia players berating and getting into Niko's grill as we was bent over and catching his breath after the final whistle... Which led to Goldson and then both teams piling in. Clearly his physical style got to them - another reason for him getting my MOTM vote. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,649 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I went for Jack this time. He has been immense so far this season. Night and day compared to last season 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,553 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 While Katic was immense, I had to give it to jack who strolled the game. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffer 1,665 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I can understand obviously why so many people went with Katic but for me Jack is our best player and has been for weeks now. He makes us tick and I still can't believe he's the same player. Last night I thought he was everywhere and helped control the game. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
