He looked very nervous on the ball, particularly first half. Defended brilliantly though.

He’s been the best buy in years imo. I think he’ll end up going for silly money, but hopefully him and Hayden get a couple more years and a chance to prove themselves in the top league with us first.

I agree. His first few touches were very poor and I said to my uncle he looks nervous but as the game went on he was brilliant.

A gangly nineteen-year-old who's got more skill and composure in his big toe than all Chelsea put together.
Come on in leaps and bounds, even though he`s never played in England before, let alone the Championship: he's flipping great and one of Carrick's up-coming “Golden Generation”! (y)

Jones did a lot of defensive work to try and assist in stopping Sterling but as Jones tired and Chelsea brought on Mudryk, Rav just stepped up a gear and seemed to love the challenge and never gave Mudryk a second, excellent defensive performance overall, not without a little luck mind, let's not kid ourselves Chelsea should of scored at least 3/4 so we need to keep concentration levels in the second leg and hope we have a more fit squad for options of pace and power as I think Lath would of caused them all sorts of problems if he had stayed on the pitch

I have thought this all season about VDB everytime I have seen him, however I had an expectation when at the start of the season, I was in the presence of the great Grant Leadbitter, he stated that he was one of the best potentials he has seen.
He has pretty much proved that up until now. Versatile, mature decision making and strong.

They have been superb.
They have had a chance and taken it with both hands, given that probably neither of them would have got much game time had Smith and Lenahan not picked up season long injuries.
