Reason I gave Cooper motm was that he made 2 excellently timed tackles which if he didn't make Reading would have been in with a great chance of scoring. They were crucial tackles and I wouldn't have said either was easy with players running at him. Don't know what the stats show for how many tackles Cooper made but if it was only 2 then they were 2 vital ones.

Cooper was my MOTM

Believe me KP's blocks/interceptions/tackles were crucial, one block stopped a certain goal

Our most versatile player & a future premiership player hopefully with Leeds

All teams have good players but maybe Reading have a striker who scores with 1 shot in 5 and Norwich have someone who scores from 1 in 3. That changes a lot of scorelines from draws to wins and losses to draws. When we came close to the play-offs with Monk we didn't have a great team but had a keeper playing well and striker scoring at a great rate - that made the difference between that team finishing 7th and finishing bottom half.

When we thrashed Norwich who could have predicted they'd go on an amazing run and top the table? QPR looked dead and buried a few weeks back and are now 8th. Preston were bottom a few weeks back and are now 15th. Birmingham bottom when they beat us now top half. The league table is not always an indicator in the championship as any team can be in the middle of a good or bad run and move a lot of places very quickly. This division is very much about take each game at a time and not see any game as an easy game.

Summed it all up nicely Weasel

What more does he need to do ?.....score a hat-trick playing CB

Tbh not sure passes, passing accuracy or touches count for much in his position given how teams set up vs us and how we play.

He is always going to have the ball a lot playing where he does, he will always have time and atm he like the other cbs are probably playing most of there passes side to side and back.

Did ok but absolutely definitely not as a cb vs Blades. That will be an entirely different game.
