2020/21 Allan

[Terrarian]

very very good at what he does, is always communicating and organising and he is very disciplined in his positioning, which is absolutely immaculate by the way, his positioning.

 

[Jim Hopper]

Watching replays of the game this morning and I’m ashamed to admit that I didn’t give him more credit than he deserves for his performance yesterday. The lad was everywhere chasing everything down and did a fantastic job of being in our box to cover for the defenders.

 

[Billy Dean]

Arguably our most important player

 

[Terrarian]

Allan is The Janitor

 

[Lelouch]

Will be the unsung hero throughout the season, Would walk into any of the teams in this league.

 

[DanB90]

Safety net.

 

[DanB90]

The shopkeeper?

Yeah, as in “you lot all go and attack.. I’ll mind the shop”.

 

[TheSecondComing]

There’s still a lot more to come from him on the ball also

 

[Paul Rideout]

I'm actually surprised more people didn't vote for him for MotM yesterday. That second half when we were under the thumbscrews he was almost everywhere the ball was when it came within the width of the peno box in the final third. they weren't allowed any time on the ball to pick a killer pass out.

I effing love him, without him (and Doucoure who, TBF, second half was also immense), James would be a redundant weapon in our arsenal.

He does a lot of dirty work that goes unnoticed and a lot of his good work is off the ball, you appreciate him more when you watch it back. brilliant player.

he is Gana+ in my eyes, in that he can actually pass a ball mid to long range, and more often than not looks to pass it forwards.

A big difference is his discipline and he doesn't give the ball away as much also his positioning off the ball is a lot better, he doesn't charge around like a loon without purpose. He's very good.

 

[Neiler]

It was the last 10 mins yesterday that he really impressed me and Palace were pushing for the equalizer. Holding and leading the shape, keeping up with the play, tenacity, running like it was the first ten mins, i was thinking of all the concerns about him being 29 on here. Real leadership, its infectious.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Mad how Napoli let him go

 

[Abraders]

Yeah, as in “you lot all go and attack.. I’ll mind the shop”.

I'll hold the fort
