cambridgeshire canary 6,742 Posted September 17, 2023 Can we give some credit to Duffy? Was pretty immense yesterday. Made some real good and solid blocks and tackles and was always barking out orders and looked the real deal. Good to see even more with how awful his time at Celtic down to his family issues so happy he seems to be back to enjoying his football. Alongside McLean feels like a real good player and here's hoping he keeps it up as so far he's been great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraytonBoy 155 Posted September 17, 2023 Duffy, Stacey and to a lesser extent Barnes have made a huge difference this season, add in Rowe's progress and it's not hard to see why City have started so well. Duffy always looks calm and composed with the ball, I just wish some of it would rub off onto Gibson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Hairy 3,773 Posted September 17, 2023 Duffy should be captain imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaUnionCanary 86 Posted September 17, 2023 Kenny is doing an excellent job as skipper, putting himself about to help and encourage our players. Hope he keeps the armband permanently, especially as Hanley will not get back in the starting eleven now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree though, I like a center half captain but the mayor is doing perfectly fine right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All the Germans 1,078 Posted September 17, 2023 Duffy has been very impressive, as good as Hanley in the air (no mean feat) but can actually control the ball and pass it too. An upgrade on Hanley in every way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Plus it gives him a reason to point now as hes the skipper) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An upgrade on Hanley in every way. We need to take Hanley out of the conversation. He is not going to play for us again, walking with a slight limp yesterday hes miles away from running / springs and light years away from 90 minutes. When he comes back he will never be at the standard we require. If hes smart hes on his coaching badges as we speak and he looks to become an emergency back up / coach at Norwich or get ready to go play in the Scottish Prem.

I do feel Hanleys injury may have put a rather bad end to his career. But I suppose the question is since he's been out have we missed him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The question may arise if Duffy or Gibson get injured as well. Edited September 19, 2023 by Capt. Pants 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The latter part of last season we clearly did but since has been addressed in the arrival of Duffy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
