Aaron Lennon

If the Jan window turns out to be as successful as the summer( Mori, Lennon and Geri in the same window!) it has to be conceded that Martinez is pretty good at transfers.

Boss tonight.
Shows the value of having options in the squad and keeping players fresh.

Exactly, it's a squad game! Him being boss and del being boss is no bad thing at all!

Last season his energy and commitment lifted us out of a slump. His most memorable performance was against Newcastle, winning an important pen when the game was in the balance. Same again tonight.
I think he is a very useful player and contributes a lot.

Yes but for every Mori, Lennon and Geri there is a Kone, McGready, and Alcatraz :rant:

Back to back excellent performances. Adds work rate, pace, and discipline to the our right.

Baines' left foot said:
He's never been the most prolific, but he does offer more than some people think. He's more of a right midfielder than a right winger, I'd say. He's not as good in and around the box as Deulofeu but he's better covering the full back and offers more defensively.

Deulofeu is brilliant at crossing and moments of individual brilliance but I think Lennon adds more of a link up factor with Coleman bombing on.

He's never going to excite us as much as Deulofeu but you can't doubt Lennon's effectiveness. Think he should get a good run of games now.

Love this lad, he never stops working and pressing and working back and protecting Coleman. Love this lad, he is quite skillful too surprisingly, his goals tonight and on Sunday show he has skill. He should start more games.

Love the fact that he steps up and it pushes Deulofeu to do the same.

he should start again against stoke, you play well you stay in the team should be the policy. as good as deulofeu is he should wait for his chance, use him as an impact sub if needed.
