Title: Swindon v Sutton MoM Thread

What a silly football club.

It's probably Kemp, but I've given my vote to RHM for one of the best 30 minute cameos you'll ever see. Came on against a tiring defence and tore them to shreds.

Brewitt for me,our standout defender. Closely followed by Kemp and what a 30 minutes from RHM

Kemp’s energy was incredible, typified by that fantastic late challenge and bursting run forward.

I'm not sure that was a pick a defender game to be honest!

For me RHM won us the game with his direct running so I am going for him.

I thought:
- Austin did well for the first 25 mins
- Uwakwe was superb for the first 25 mins then did OK for the rest of the half. Less effective when he changed position. Should have scored in the second half but panicked!
- Kemp was anonymous for the first 20 mins but grew into the game and ran his socks off!
- McEacheran had a very good game doing all of the unspectacular stuff
- RHM added so much energy. Shame his ball control is a bit suspect, but, I guess thats often what makes him a handful. Thought we were going to draw or lose until he came on.
- Young took his goals well, but could have laid a couple on for Austin. Faded towards the end
- The defence: Non existent and a liability at times.
- Cain had a poor game. Took his goal very well though

Guess it has to be RHM with an honourable mention to Kemp.

Dan Kemp for me.  He was at the heart of everything positive in the second half.

Rush was the sub of the season so far for sure.  And crucially looks ready to step up another level after last season's promise.

Tricky one, a bunch of good performances. I’m going for Young.

Don’t think anyone performed well enough for long enough to stand out.

Like I don’t think anyone played badly but couldn’t pick out anyone who was head and shoulders above.
Despite not looking great in front of goal himself - Austin probably had the most vital contributions in that game

Pretty much this, although I think Kemp worked his socks off in that heat, so i'll go for him.
What a terrific little player he is.

I should say that I thought Shade did quite well from the bench.

I know that won’t be popular with many.

RHM was absolutely superb for 30 minutes. But I can't give him mom as he didn't play 60.

I don't think Kemp came alive until the second half myself.

So I've gone young

Yeah,I know what you mean but
I'm more thinking of the way he had to cover for the maraudings of the other 2 to be honest! I don't think he put a foot or head wrong

No, I agree. Played in the right position - as far away from the back line as possible - he looks a handful. Very nearly replicated his goal v Crawley, too. Unlucky. Went for RHM.

Because a lot of people are frustrated by Shade.

I don't think people would be frustrated if they thought he was just plain shit though. There's something there, you just don't see it that often. Today was a good Shade day.

Shade and RHM were excellent substitutions...

McEachran for me. Thought it was his best game in a Town shirt. Did so much dirty work.

I’ve always thought of him as a bit of a “tidy” modern nothing midfielder but he’s changing my mind. Funnily enough I prefer him at the base to Khan, who often plays us into trouble.

I'd also go for McEachran.
He was stretching calf or hamstring for a few minutes prior to being subbed.
Hopefully ok for Saturday. Need to keep him fit.

An intelligent cameo from Shade as well & unlucky not to score.

Kemp was unstoppable but gave my vote to RHM solely on his goal. 
Haven’t seen skill like that at the County Ground in many years.  (Well, not in a Swindon shirt anyway)

Kemp and MacEachren very good but I went for Uwakwe - showed he deserves his place in the starting XI

Uwakwe was excellent for certain all game.

I went for MacEachren too, watching on iFollow the usual suspects stand out but actually being there made me appreciate him more than I have before, I've liked him since he joined but sometimes, as I say, on iFollow players like him aren't best represented. 

Basically I just really enjoyed watching him.  A highlight of the terrible Morris reign.

Cracking goal and credit to Flynn as got the substitutions spot on.
The Sutton defence didn’t want the Russian coming on with that pace in the heat.

Went for Kemp purely down to his energy levels in the Sahara heat.
Gives us so much.

Kemp is everything Jonny Williams should be at this level.

So true. Kemp is producing displays every week that Jonny managed once every 4 games.

In a game absolutely lacking in control, I voted for Mceachran. I felt like his touch and calm play in midfield kept things from getting anymore absolutely bonkers than it already was! I also thought Brewitt was our calmest defender as well, didn't do much fancy but was needed at times to keep things steady at the back when FBT or UGM were having wobbly moments in front.

Kemp grew into the game second half and RHM was running them ragged towards the end.

I was going to vote for Godwin-Maliffe until I watched the extended highlights. Instead, my vote has to go to Kemp, what a player.

72 votes. Engagement is higher here than in the CG attendances so far.
