I really like him. Didn't look out of place today and proved again he is more than capable of providing decent cover for us. Would hope he gets a new contract, although I'd imagine at this point in his career he'll be looking to move elsewhere for some more game time.

Looked like the player you always thought he could be last night.

 

Seemed in good shape, focused and committed which has rarely been the case the last few years. Hopefully he's got it together and can become a good squad player going forward, the talent has always been there.

Always liked the lad, but saw a different side to him last night.  Never knew he had that sort of fight and workrate in him.  Covered the full backs, tracked his runners, pressed all over the pitch and wasn't afraid to put a foot in.  The tidy passing and odd 40 yard ping is standard for him, he's always had that in his locker. 

 

Covered the most amount of ground out of all the players on the pitch, not surprised to read that either, he was superb last night.  Good squad player and I hope we keep him.

 

Not meaning to piss on his chips, he's going to find it much harder against Everton.  They'll play 5 in the middle, so we might struggle like we did against Wigan and they don't have Delap and Whelan as hey're centre midfielders!

If thats IF he can keep that form its a massive bonus for us the only issue is Tiote will keep him out of the team so its going to be tough for him to prove he can be consistent.

He does look a lot trimmer though, lost that extra bit of weight he was carrying.

I always thought Guthrie was a decent squad player, but I was really surprised by the quality of his performance last night. Looks like he might be working hard on his strength and athleticism as well, which is the main thing that held him back in the past.

Wow, how 1 game can change people's opinions. Almost in the completely other way than that match against WBA, Hughton's last.

 

Some people still let that WBA game cloud their judgement about Guthrie. My mate says that he can't really forgive Guthrie for that slip because it essentially cost Hughton his job.

 

I still rate the lad and his performance last night just shows that he is pretty reliable.

What a naive, narrow minded view from your mate, his days were clearly numbered anyway and we deserved a pasting that day, the entire team were embarrassing.

Indeed Nate, I'm trying to set him straight. He does give Guthrie credit when it's due but he's still standing by that "Guthrie cost Hughton his job" thing. I'm sure in time, he'll let that go.
