Samir

[Blades80]

wow... just wow... came on and my word, he looked quality. Those little touches and that run down the left. Just wow!!!

 

[Grappler]

Agree, one of those players where the ball seems to stick to his feet, thought he was great

 

[Valleyblade]

Thought the same. Looks a player and a half.....

Top result. Life is good!

 

[blade too long]

thats the trouble with this team , too much quality

 

[HighfieldBlade]

Very impressed by Carruthers. Made an immediate impact. Cracking run down the left, If only he'd scored it would've been a wonder goal.

 

[YES Blade]

Hopefully a player that can do the business in the Championship. Based on today, Duffy needs to be replaced.

 

[Stretch]

Got me out of my seat so many times today. Looked class.

Another great piece of business by CW

 

[Bladesman]

He deserves to start ahead of Duffy.

 

[shorehamview]

Playing like he did today he can indeed piss wherever he likes.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

He looked like he had come straight out of Barcelona's 11, totally took the game away from Bolton. As good as impact sub as iv'e seen, he looks to be some player on that evidence.

 

[Kenilworth]

He's clever
He's tricky
His feet are quick as fuck
His mind is even quicker
He can piss where he wants

 

[Iceybabey]

Just what the game needed. We needed someone to be more direct and carry the ball onto the box. We don't do it enough, get in the box and take your man on, get touched, go down.

Praise for Wilder for reading the game and making the right decision.

 

[DronnieBlade]

Duffy had an off (ish) day.

But let's not throw the baby out with the bath water. Duffy has been a key and integral part of our rise to the top of the league.

Samir V impressive when he came on and, importantly, slotted in as though he had played for us since August.

Very positive after today. In all honesty we are the best side in the division and it's not even close for 2nd best. Streets ahead

[Trafford]

Duffy helped create the first goal, I can live with that. And if Samir plays like that coming off the bench, I'm equally happy. No need to change a winning combination.

 

[Grizzly blade]

Exciting times ahead.....what a signing. Just how the chuff did we manage it?

I reckon Bolton did a job on Duffy, they knew they had to. But we have a good squad and they had no answer for that!

 

[Harry's Game]

Very impressed by Carruthers. Made an immediate impact. Cracking run down the left, If only he'd scored it would've been a wonder goal.

Wish thar run had finished off in a goal cos I don't think Sky or Channel 5 will show it now, would have been one of the goals of the season.

 

[Danny_Boy]

Samir is an excellent player and will prove to be a very astute sister going.

 

[JordoBlade]

Fucking terrible isn't it? Had enough me.

 

[S64 Blade]

He looked great when he came on. Better than Duffy who was off the boil and made a few poor decisions when he had the ball at his feet.

Didn't go today but just amazed that we can't praise one player without drawing comparisons and criticising another!

Duffy has been our KEY attacking outlet (that means the main person to unlock defences btw) all season without any doubt whatsoever. If he's had an off day and Carruthers did well when he came on then fine.

 

[blade too long]

anyone else fed up with this style of dominating easy on the eye football we keep churning out

 

[mancunianblade]

Duffy has been great had many more good moments than bad, I do feel this is his level. I don't know the answer but does anyone know why Burton didn't take him? Could it be that they think this is his level too?

Either way season isn't over and Duffy and Samir have a lot to offer in the final quarter of the season.

 

[mancunianblade]

Tell me about it I can't wait for us to go back to no nonsense direct football with cloggers heading it right back at us.

some just have to have someone who isnt up to it in their eyes

moaning became that engrained in their psyche they cant give wholesome praise

 

[Blend-it-like-Harris]

Drop Duffy!??? - same folks who have trashed Basham in the past???

 

[derfblade.3]

Sister going where?

 

[JJBlade]

I'd keep things as they are as well
A new player in the squad has to earn his place.
This can be easy if the team is shit, but in a team playing well it is difficult to dislodge somebody

I'd rather have the eager to impress Samir substituting Duffy or Coutts than the other way around
Dropping Duffy or Coutts to the subs bench in favour of Samir might damage their confidence a bit because they've done nothing wrong and I don't think they'd have the same impact from the bench if there a bit narked or their confidence has taken a jolt

 

[Bayingblade]

Duffy didn't have his best game today but he never hid, never stopped looking for the ball and never stopped trying to attack. Lovely player and what a luxury to have Carruthers as an option. The best midfield in the division by far.

Oh, and John Fleck. Can anyone name a better free transfer?

 

[10-0 win]

Think we could see both Carruthers and Duffy starting.
