    Very good today. Close to MOM for me.

    Just hate that going down with cramp nonsense. Just seems to be an inevitable part of the game.
    Hate that gamesmanship.

    Made a great save from a corner late on, kept us in it.

    Thought the same @fired. Looked like he was really wanting to impress, made decisions early and stuck with them. Wondering if those saves on Wednesday have boosted his confidence, it seemed that way to me.

    Will be a Premier League goalkeeper in a couple of years. He’s got everything.

    I've been impressed with him so far, definitely an upgrade on all last season's GKs. Has had the odd moment but looks a solid keeper all round.

    Hasn't got a clean sheet yet and gets booked too often.

    His time wasting today gave Bolton another chance to win it in the additional time.

    Looks good to me but could he have come for the cross that led to their goal?

    He was time wasting when it was 0-0 in the first half.:(

    Not sure it was his decision, because all the players ran to the dug-out not just for drinks but instructions. So my guess is the decision to go down came from the bench

    Very very good, can’t be mad at the mistake against Burton. It showed confidence.

    His height is his only weakness for me which he can’t control, however, that said, he still comes for everything and more than not deals with it.

    Big fan of this lad me.

    Everything except height, but he can't help that. He's very agile, which can often make up for a lack of height, and he's very decisive, which is really important. He looks like an intelligent reader of the game, as I thought Brad Collins was, and his kicking is very good.

    brilliant shot stopper from range and great distribution but appears extremely weak in the box and with anything close up sadly. The one where they hit the post it was like he was a statue, same with the goal.

    He got a clean sheet virtually every other game with Stevenage. The defence in front of him at the respective clubs may have something to do with that.

    I’ll try and watch the full replay Monday, so can’t comment about today.

    I’m not sure how the throwin v fleetwood made it past him. Or the corner. And obviously he misjudged the attempt to clear the ball against burton after DeGevigney’s gift to the opposition.

    In other aspects he’s looked decent to ok. I think we need to see a lot more to judge him more accurately and fairly.
