I'm just glad he finally turned up and was half decent for once. It's a start.

I'll stick with the bloke and keep up my praise haha, the guy went through a bad spell by his standards recently, but his movement with the ball is so phenomenal and his tackling is almost always perfect. He's not the player to play a cutting pass through the defence but he'll get the ball into that final third and take 3 or 4 players out of the game in the process. Yesterday was just another good performance this season. He'll have to do a lot to beat that Fulham performance, which was pretty much as close to perfection as you could ask for, but bar a 6 game spell when Ollie came in, he's been head and shoulders our best player this season imo."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value.

I like Mass have always backed him and also think his best position would be higher up pitch in floating role. He's had up and down season but that's because we know what he can produce and he's been below that but he's young playing in a mans league so that consistency will come with experience
He's not however best midfielder in the league

Ooooofftttt BIG statement saying he has been our best player this season... I'd like to throw Smithies into the hat...
IMO Mass just needs to work on consistency into his performances, and his final ball/end product.Last edited by West London is Rss; 13-01-2017, 04:59 PM.

People have made their mind up about him when he arrived and confirmation bias despite all evidence means they still try their best to stick by this despite all the evidence
If he played exactly the same way but looked like Celtics Scott Brown then people would act differently. But it seems clear the pre-judgements are set in stone for some

I'm just saying that we utilise him completely differently to how the Australian national ream do. I also suspect that if we give him more license to get forward he will look a better player!
