Not only is NB becoming a reliable centre back, I'm also relying on him coming up with the goods if I'm struggling to get a Cup final ticket next Feb.
Quote from: gervilla on December 15, 2012, 08:51:53 PMIt has taken Nathan a while to find his feet in the first team after some less than assured performances last season and some bad luck injury wise when he did get a start but this season I have been incredibly impressed with him.He has come on leaps and bounds.For me he looks a better center back than Clark who to be fair to him has also been much more commanding of late.He is playing with a maturity and consistency far beyond his years.Another product of the academy with a big future ahead of him. Baker and Clark look a god partnership to me. Might be tricky for Vlaar to get back in straight away.

Baker was our main man for most of the first half. McLeish rated him highly and has to be given credit for the way he got to how he played today.

I'm not into McLeish bashing but seems a bit generous to give him much praise for Baker.
Don't see the major influence either?? Baker deserves credit for the way he played today, but not Eck. The tackle coming across in the first 15 minutes was just awesome.
