Defender plays ball to full back, Steve puts his head down and chases him. Full back plays ball back to centre back, and Steve turns round and charges straight back at him at full pelt. Repeat for 90 (or 95 if there are no goals or substitutions) mins. Fantastic stuff - it's great to see forwards that are willing to work for the team and earn themselves a chance. Light years from Hayes and Nardiello. And for me, the key to the win last night. Of course, quality finishing also helps (worship)
Reminds me more of Ashley Ward Our new hero. Never stops running. Defends from the front. Wins most things in the air. Takes his chances. Not just a willing worker but clever and skilled too.
Plays with a smile on his face Like a big kid just playing for fun. So rare to see in this day and age.
