Chuba Akpom

4 - CDM: Kenny Dougall

God help anyone coming up against Chuba Akpom in that form but the game passed him by all night.
 
One thing though... CAKpom isn't the best Twitter handle :ROFLMAO:. Probably should have went with @Chuba.
 
To be fair to carrick, he has moved him, as leo did before carrick and it's made a world of difference. Late developer maybe......
 
I must admit. Given the performances I’d watched over his time with us, I was reluctant to jump on the Chuba Train earlier in the season.

Absolutely amazed at his turn around. His overall game play has massively improved and whist I still don’t think he’s the greatest finisher, he seems to have a poachers instinct inside the box, which is ideal if Jones and Giles can keep providing the service from wide.

I am officially converted! UTB
 
He's improved so much this season, it's not just the goals.

He's setting others up and starting attacks all the time.

But on the goals, this is now his joint best ever league season and he's only played 13 games compared to the 33 he'd played in the Greek league season where he'd scored 8.
 
I said Zidane last week now Henry. What a turnaround. Seriously though Looks incredible in that role. The game slows down around him. Brings the team on 100%. Works his b***ks off aswel.
I was thinking Boksic tonight . Sometimes when Boksic was on fire he would just look miles above the other 21 players on the pitch.
 
The comparison with Henry is just silly.... more a prime Dennis Bergkamp!

He is showing that rare ability in the Championship - the ability to have time on the ball. He was totally playing at his own pace and there was nothing they could do with him.

It was like when someone turns up at your Tuesday night 5 a side, with a mate who plays in the Northern League!
