Isak actually shoots high a fair bit as well, guess he’s selecting the right finish in each case. Did it quite a bit in the warmup. 

 

Yeah i meant yesterdays finishes were low and hard (for Isak) and simple low tap in for WIlson but i'm with you on Isak's shooting - he picks the right one. Cal too.

My favourite footballer, I live my football career vicariously through him. Every time I see him play its like I'm watching my own personal version of GOAL! I will defend him until he commits some sort of morally dubious act.

Remember when Murphy was used as the stick to beat Rafa with? :pow:

 

That whole window. Lejeune did a good job, Manquillo has been a solid squad backup, Murphy is now first-choice, Joselu and Merino are full Spanish internationals...

Think Sheff Wed fans loved Murphy. I always thought there was a player in there but he’d not get the run of games needed with us to be that player.

 

He’s a fan and clearly a popular lad with his teammates. Couldn’t be happier for him. He’ll not be here for a long time but he’ll certainly have a good time.

They loved him and Lazaar. Bruce should never have left them.

I bet they have someone on their media time on this forum. If so, I'd like to take full credit for highlighting that catchphrase first :lol:

 

Seriously though, he comes across well. Reminds me of Targett in some ways, in that the way he speaks doesn't make me think 'footballer'. Probably more going on between the ears than some might think.

 

Hope his form and confidence continues into the last few games of the season, he's peaking just at the right time.

I’ve been a huge Murphy critic (justified on what’s he’s done in the past) but I think the most impressive improvement in his game is his decision making.

 

Hes always had ability but I always found the Obertan comparison apt in that in theory they should be good but they just have a knack of doing the wrong thing.

 

Since the Forest game Murphy has turned it round in spectacular fashion and just seems to be doing the right thing more often than not. 
 

Maybe he will eventually earn the Daryl Murphy song for his own. ?

I’ve noticed a strong improvement post takeover in overall media output (it’s still some way behind elite clubs, but that’s largely an issue of resource). 
 

That said, the social manager has been solid for a good few years. I sense there’s probably shackles come off since the old owners left (irony lolz).

I was happy when Rafa signed him, bruce destroyed my appetite for taking any notice of the club but I am very happy he is doing so well under Eddie. Murphy is a key case of how EH can improve players that had previously written off because of bad/non existent coaching.
