Please Let Cook

Be the end of Austin and Murphy.

I know a lot rate Austin's 'work rate' and his huff and puff style.
I don't. He's awful. Cook showed today what a gem we have.
He needs to be the first name on every team sheet along with
Silvestri. Cook's fearless and he can actually pass the ball.
On top of that, he has high football IQ. Let him run the midfield.

Not fussed if Austin never plays again. Same goes for Murphy.
I've tried to give Murphy benefit, but, he's just not got it. A few
said it from the off. Some of those voices are the Kings of Kneejerk.
Regardless, they were right. I was wrong on him.

Move Tonge and Norris (he may be going?) while we're at it.

Cook is class.

Not sure if same applies to Murphy? Or if he's a confidence player? Neither one looks like keeping their places in the first team.

Cook needs to be played regularly

Look at Will Hughes at Derby broke into team young and has grown into a quality player in this league

Shouldn't be about age or experience

Funny that batty, its been said in the past all footballers have a low IQ!..

So, the same as any other!.

But a new coach could bring a new player out of him, it has been known to happen, the same as a new coach could make the best crap!..

As for Murphy, he's shown glimpses of what he can do, and I'd think the right people around him could bring that out!..

Cook had an excellent game

Will be a good player, not convinced he's anywhere near the will Hughes ability.

Were going to have to mix it around though, that midfield in some games will get hammered

Stranglely I think Austin can do well in there I really do

side, today I dared to think of Cook in the same way I think of Hughes. Why not? He looks a real gem.

Germany, so true mate. Not rocket scientists any of em.
I just don't see any coach being able to make Austin into a player that could run a midfield. He's reactionary
at best. It's not like you look at him and say "wow, he was three or four plays ahead of everyone there."

Tbh I think Murphy might have been playing for a move on Weds. Both ridiculous challenges for his early bath.

Either that or he had a promise on!

I'm one who wanted to give him more time but Weds did it for me. We have better in Cook and Mowatt.

Agree Stoopo.

Need at least one winger and those midfielders with Austin in too will do alright.

Adrian looks like he can play wide or float. What about this Montenegro guy? Not heard much about him.
