    In the same that the commentator for Everton V Newcastle a few years back got excited about Rooney?:

    "He maybe just a boy but he's got the body of a man."

    Something like that. His co-commentator just died live on air. Hehe!

    Caught in possession too often, did not play the simple ball. Worked hard mind & had a chance fairly near the end to win it. Made complete hash of a chance with an air shot first half.

    Granted I only saw the highlights on football first, but from what I saw he was dreadful. Lacked his usual pace and was guilty of giving the ball away needlessly on a number of occassions. Had 2 good chances in front of goal, first one he missed the ball completly, second one, through on goal and he shots straight at the keeper.

    i watched the whole game, and i think you lot are being a bit harsh on the boy. He did ok, granted he didnt move mountains, but a bit more playin time and he will be good again. A great outlet and holds it up quite well.

    I agree with you DJ... he looks like he's been round Hasselbanks for dinner.

    I was at the game and agree with MCS.

    He needs a few games to get confidence at least he didn't pull out of tackles like Romm and with a bit more understanding with Thatcher he could be very effective.

    Thomas is potentially our best winger. He can hold the ball up and wins a lot of free kicks. He does look unfit though I agree and has lost half a yard to a yard of pace because of it.
