I know I've been critical of Mctominay in the past, but maybe I was too harsh. I'll admit my mistake and hope he keeps playing like he did last night every game and doesn't go back to sideways and backwards.

Wilbot,

He is a wry good player, prior to being injured he had a bad couple if games, partly due to him needing a rest and carrying an injury.

He has the right attitude, he certainly has lead by example on the pitch when other senior players have failed to do so.

He was more influential last night than Matic has been over the last month.

Not say Matic is a bad player, but McTominay offer the same physical presence, the same shielding of the back four, but with more mobility and the ability to drive the ball forward. He is also more of a goal threat and although might not complete the same number of passes he attempts more dangerous passes that could open up sides. Hopefully with someone like Bruno in there he can help create that forward passing link into dangerous positions.

McTominay really needs to improve both his range and weight of passing as he is lacking in this area but you can’t but admire his desire and tenacity. You can tell what playing for the club means to him. I still think he’s got a bit to go until he’s the finished article and whether he will ever reach the required level is up for debate but it won’t be for any lack of effort on his part.
