Smiffy 0 Posted December 16, 2009 Daryl Russell again. He is the driving force behind the whole team was immense for the second time in a week. Can we really keep him in Jan? We need to! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I am a Banana 0 Posted December 16, 2009 yeah he will be here in feb, he is the HOLDING MIDFIELDER, AND NOONE notices what they do until they dont do it so if he continues to play how he is he will go un noticed to other managers [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Shuck 182 Posted December 16, 2009 Noted as I finally caught up with the game last night that John Salako was bigging Russell up on Sky, "running the show", "pulling the strings", "tremendous" etc etc, hmm, Salako scouts for a couple of clubs as well, thats handy!!

Tim Allman 1 Posted December 16, 2009 Yes - agreed about Russell. Won tackles, interceptions, tried to move the ball forward when he could, and was the heartbeat of the team. His determination in winning a tackle that looked less than 50/50 in his favour helped set up the move for the second goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Under Roeder Russell was a pale shadow of his true self and under Gunn he didnt care and wanted to leave.Lambert''s getting the best out the of players, look at the Doc, in the form of his NCFC career and finally scoring goals like a converted striker should be!Yes its League 1 but the point is the players are finally giving 100% and playing to the best of there ability. Something weve lacked for 3 seasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lambo 0 Posted December 16, 2009 As much as I do hate to say it... maybe some of our players like Doc and Rusty have found their level?Although Rusty didn''t play this role in the Championship so i''m willing togive him the benifit of the doubt there.

Mister Chops 7 Posted December 16, 2009 It''s a hard position to play in because if you do it well, you almost go unnoticed. Fotheringham stood out precisely because he was inept. Russell has become the heartbeat of the team in recent weeks, I''m glad to see he is back to his best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulf Ottosson 0 Posted December 16, 2009 He''s been simply awesome - I think we might struggle to keep hold of him. If I was him I would be wondering why I was playing at this level Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
