Roberts was my MOTM, but I’ve voted for Connell, cos I thought his best game in ages deserved more than one vote.
He was very disciplined defensively; misplaced a couple of passes but no issue there. He’ll be a big miss this next week, two winnable but tough games. But Marc Roberts was motm by an absolute country mile. Imperious, faultless, a performance that showed experience and ability in equal measure.
Roberts, one of the easier ones of the season. If he gets back to the form he showed earlier in the season, we might have a chance of tightening the defence up a bit more. Credit to O'Keefe too, who I thought was brilliant in the second half, and DKD who was tireless throughout; a fantastic bit of forward play to just nip in ahead of the keeper to force an error for the penalty.
