By the time the season ends we'll have another trusted and solid option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vedder Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Growing in confidence with every game. His first touch is immense, so great to see a player come through with such potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His first touch is immense, so great to see a player come through with such potential. Aye was really impressed by his touch and agility/balance. And really impressive athleticism. He looks a more talented player than our other midfield academy products. It’s the balance. It gives him better angles when passing and the first touch is butter. Fantastic. Well done lad.

dave s Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 was worried this run of games would be tough on the lad when Longstaff was injured.. but he hasn’t put a foot wrong. Be a huge player for us in years ahead. Bit more confidence and experience under his belt, he’s going to be ridiculously good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oregon_Geordie Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Some of his touches first half were sublime and way beyond his years. Second half his positional sense was top draw. Growing with every game. If only he had scored! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I don’t usually like to go too mad about young academy players because the bar is lower with everything they do but he genuinely looks a player. One of hoped for side effects of the whole mentality / culture of the club changing with the new owners is proper players breaking through instead of the usual rubbish and it looks like he’s the first. Fair play, he was superb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Chelsea, PSG and Man Utd... and Miley looked totally comfortable... at 17 years old. Incredible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Hard to comprehend that a 17 year old can play with that level of maturity. The amount of times he makes a wise choice is incredible, sometimes he'll get the ball and I think I know what he's going to do because of his age, then he does the thing a 25 year would do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaj Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Only thing he did wrong tonight was not get his chance into the bottom corner. What an incredible performance! I hope we keep the faith in him when others are back, he deserves to carry on playing and saves us at least £50m on a CM if he carries on like this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) I just don't know how he can look so part of the furniture already. And to know he's not just a fearless kid coming in to get Pardewed or Bruced, but that he's going to have his clear talent harnessed by Eddie bloody Howe is fantastic. Composed, tidy, think we're going to see him play more and more Brunoesque balls as he progresses. His reading of the game defensively is superb too. Seems to get in the way of so much.

Fair play, he was superb. Doesn’t just pass the buck and do the low risk thing. Even if it doesn’t come off he doesn’t find. That, and he’s absolutely trusted by everyone in the team of course. Speaks volumes IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Right, I know people get excited about certain players but can I give my two penny worth. First of all some fans said ginger Longstaff was fantastic. That's just a reminder. Miley to me in all honesty is doing a decent job. Nowt special. Just calm down people because seriously "at this moment time" he's OK. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
