Cardiff boss Warnock hails sub keeper Murphy for helping Bluebirds earn point
Tuesday 4th April 2017
Cardiff boss Neil Warnock was the happier of the two managers as his side drew 0-0 against Barnsley at Oakwell.
Chances were at a premium in a feisty clash, with substitute Brian Murphy's double save early in the second half, from Saidy Janko and Adam Hammill, ultimately earning the Bluebirds a point.
"It would have been harsh if we had got beaten," said Warnock. "We knew they were going to be sprightly and play one-touch football.
"It was really pleasing to keep a clean sheet. I know (Brian) Murphy made a couple of saves, but overall there were some massive pluses for me. That was Joe Bennett's best game for me at the club by an absolute mile. There's a player under that shirt somewhere and tonight he was unbelievable."
Warnock had to replace injured goalkeeper Allan McGregor at half-time and was delighted with replacement Murphy's contribution.
"The kid left his studs on McGregor's ankle when he cleared a ball and it swelled up," added Warnock.
"Murphy's done really well for us and before I brought McGregor in he turned our season round for us and I had no worries about sticking him in."

Keep Murphy, he is a better keeper than McGregor, and he won't cost us anything.

The Brian Murphy story has been one of the highlights of the season. I was at Brentford when he came on the pitch, I thought he was a ball boy. Hes done brilliantly considering hes played only a handful of games in the lower leagues. Cant see him getting the number one jersey here unfortunately ,but hope he does elsewhere.
