Always think his strongest games are when he has Wright in front of him. EMC likes to stay on the touchline more and restricts his forward runs and I think Wright helps out better defending as well.
He’s so good with the ball in tight spaces. Defensively he’s stepped up recently. Even winning headers! Just needs to work on his final ball and if even say we could get away without replacing him. Long term though I think we need a different profile there.
He was brilliant yesterday, his best game in a city shirt, and has been good over the last 3-4 games. It was noticeable yesterday how much Wright came back to support him which EMC never does, so he was never really exposed. I thought he had a decent game at Hull although Gelhardt did give him a bit of a torrid time.
It's only taken 18 months and 70+ games to start showing up what he is capable of. But he's hitting form at the right time, so long may that continue.
Fair play to JDS. He was outstanding yesterday
Personally I am very happy to be proved wrong in this case. I really couldn't see a good player in him.
As others have indicated I think that this is down to work on the training ground
Our coaching appears to be as good as any as a good few players look to have improved appreciably.
