Good player when he was here (and before). Rated him quite highly, not many others did, including the manager who had his favourites.
Criminally underused and underrated. We certainly looked a better threat and far more mobile up top when he played.
Good luck to the lad.

Re: So do you drop Muric after two massive costly howlers?
Muric is a better goalkeeper for us than Trafford is right now. I suspect that might change as Trafford matures and gains experience. No doubt Muric was poor today though. It wasn’t just the goal. His distribution was off. It was certainly off AFTER the mistake. I watched him for quite a while afte...

I was one that wanted Muric back in ahead of Trafford. Hand up. I do think he suits our overall play better than Trafford and I think he's better at crosses and corners. All that said, the prime role is to keep the ball out the net and twice in two weeks he's single-handedly been responsible for it...

Foster’s been poor since he came back. A lot of that can be put down to lack of fitness and being played out of position.
