Great today , if he could sort his passing out we’d have some player.

Haha if he did that he'd be playing at Bayern. But yes, soemthing to work on for sure and that's why we have him. Still very young and lots of room to grow and improve. And right now playing better in that role than Doug. A very good problem to have.

Superb. A player that gets right in your face and is like an annoying gnat that won't go away.

He starts the next match for me.

Yes must start the next few games. Just does exactly what he needs to do.

I’d be thinking Sanson and Nakamba and McGinn and Jack.

He's 27, and entering his peak now. Not exactly 'very young'  That's not to say he didn't play brilliantly today, but I don't see him improving as a player as much as some of the younger ones have during their first 18 months in the premier league.  Every player of any age can get better, obviously, but with Marvellous, I think what we saw today is the player he can be for us, and to hope for too much more is unfair on him.

I've not been his biggest fan but very good again today. Would be unlucky to lose his place on Weds.

His distribution is sometimes poor but you can see the improvement from last season.
Did his job today. Excellent

I was totally wrong about him. If you have somebody who can play that role as effectively as he does you need to be playing him, particularly against good teams.

One of his pink boots keeps getting a toe poke in to take the ball away from danger. Wonderful colours in action.
