    He dominated the midfield especially in the first half. I don’t know why Brendan took him off. Think all he needs is game time so he can build a bit of consistency and if he’s allowed that, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him touted as the next big thing. So many quality attributes and an absolute steal for 3.5m.

    Excellent footballer. Always have liked him and think he will go up another level this year.

    I think he will be a mainstay with McGregor and Engels. Let's see how quickly Engels gets up to speed but as I was saying last year, the jury is a bit out for me on Hatate & what his settled level is.

    I thought he was absolutely outstanding barring maybe 1 mistake. My MOTM up until Cal scored the winner.

    I think he was getting leggy. I dont think he has too many minutes under his belt yet this season. He put in a shift in the first half, would be hard to sustain for the full 90

    He may not get the same numbers as MOR going forward but one thing he does better is just being everywhere putting in tackles. Can beat a man with ease too.

    I made an even bolder one a while back...that he'll surpass O'Riley. Maybe overstating it a bit given Matt's sheer quality, but you get the point.

    I agree with this, I think he’s got a lot more to his game defensively… he was so dominant for a period today and should have had a goal.

    Definitely better defensively, not got Matt's vision or flair though. Think with more time together they'd have formed a formidable partnership.

    Was insane today. Took a grip of the game and was everywhere. In my opinion MOTM and he just played 63 minutes. Don't think he's fully fit so that's why he was off. Baller.

    MoTM for me. Really stepped up his game. Pressing was unreal.

    Fantastic today, one of the best games he's had for us imo.

    It's no surprise his two best games for us have came against the huns.

    He tore them apart today, should have left with a goal too.

    £3.5 million is ridiculous business for him, and with the competition we have in midfield he'll only get better.
