Was in the gym I go to this morning (David Lloyd, Port Solent, Portsmouth) in full Swindon training kit being beasted by a personal trainer. He was in there at 7am every week day with Joel Ward (Pompey) throughout last summer and looks like he's back at it again this season. Top lad, top commitment when most of our players have gone off on their hols, and nice to have another person in Swindon training tops in a Pompey gym nowadays! Strength in numbers!  |

wonderful talent and one of the few shining lights in a truly awful season. Do think he maybe too lightweight for league 2 though as midfield in particular will be very physical

they might be able to toy with Man Ure but I couldn't see Iniesta, Xabi and Messi making an impression on a wet night in Accrington, eh? |

Love the lad. Guts, guile and spirit. Will be a major asset for us next year.

Very impressed with him yesterday. Although not one of his most sparkling games, he put the effort it all through the game and during the first half, when many others were underperforming he was certainly our best offensive player and helped cover some of the other midfielders errors too.
I was also very pleased that I can't remember him spending any time sprawled on the ground as was his habit last season; perhaps the strength work he was reported as doing over the summer has toughened him up.
I'm looking forward to good things from MR this season.

Agreed played well yesterday, but like you said not one of his best games. Probably due to the fact most of the game he was double marked. |

Did anyone else notice the interesting interchange with Caddis towards the end? He made a fantastic change of direction in his run and Caddis was ready with the pass. Great bit of play.

Certainly wouldn't complain about his work ethic, fantastic. Missed a good chance at the far post, although I am not too sure where he would be in a list of players with heading prowess. I feel he is better suited to the left than the right, always going to cut inside from the right onto his left foot making marking him that much easier. |
