Two matches where he has made a big impact, Didn’t realise until the interview on Radio Tees that he was not broad Yorkshire!
Obviously not a confident talker either (that surprised me too) but also obviously very brave to step up to do an interview.

Bravery is less of a surprise though from his play. I am warming to him more and more!
 
Looked poor in a back four, has been better now we’ve switched to five. Two great assist this week.
Our formation previously was hanging our full backs out to dry.

Last year we had the understanding of Smith shuffling to stay narrow and Lenihan covering for Giles by shuffling across (we were still not very good defensively)

We never seemed to fully understand who should be covering when the full backs went forward or were isolated this season. The team seems to understand covering in this formation a bit better.
 
Yes ! he's been a brilliant addition. He's one of those players who you hate in the opposition team but love him in your team 💪 not afraid & gives it back
