Ace Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 17 hours ago, 80 said: I really think it's the opposite with him. By all accounts he's a bright guy and his problems seem to usually come from him overthinking situations. There really is such a thing as being too clever for your own good. Looks like him and Eddie are in the process of cracking it though, which is great. Yeah it could be that, doesn’t necessarily mean he’s stupid just it’s a mental issue in his play that’s affecting his game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 (edited) He's become an integral part of the squad, hasn't he? His enthusiasm and character clearly have played a big part. He's clearly very well liked and gets 'it'. Edited April 3, 2023 by Big Geordie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Cannot believe how much better he's gotten. Love his attitude and his commitment. He's a valuable squad member, no doubt. We can and will upgrade on him from a skill standpoint but players like him buying in and grafting like crazy are a big reason we are the squad we are.

80 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Given his application and willingness to be a cog in the squad, I can see him being around for a long time to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Think we've really simplified his game and mindset He's the type of player who if he has too much time to think about what he's going to, he'll usually pick the wrong option but his role is very clear and defined now. Really pleased for him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emotic Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 A beneficiary of a "gentle Howe-ing" - that is, made to play within his strengths and limitations and coached and drilled day-in day-out to slot into the system we play. And it gets better and better the more game time he gets and the fitter he becomes over the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather listen to Rio, he's that bad. Rio constantly did a thing of asking a question then answering his own question. Murphy came over well, felt like he was mimicking some of Howes way of talking at times (just certain turns of phrase) it’s clear that he’s fully bought in.
