" Marlon Pack & Aden Flint "

They get a lot of stick on here at times, unfairly in my opinion.

Think they've had a great start to the season and were excellent again today.

In fact, they've both been brilliant since Mick took charge.


Along with a couple of others, they should be and probably are two of the first names on the team sheet.

I Think they are much better suited to playing with 5 at the back.

Apparently, when MM arrived he told the players to do what they do best, don’t try to be something they aren’t. I think this is what these two have done and it’s reaping rewards.

On the stream I watched you could clearly see him clapping the fans for ages.

Pack is a totally different player under MM, he is the type of player we need. No nonsense, and keeps it simple.

I’m still not sold on Flint, I feel the money we paid could have gone on a much better, younger centre half. Still, the goal against Swansea will forever live long in the memory.

He was mate. I meant you could see McArthy clapping the city fans at the end. :bluescarf:

He also mentions the fans, and the noise they made all game, and he was glad they could travel back happy :thumbup: :old: :bluebird:

Pack and Flint are your typical big physical no nonsense Championship type of players , you can see that since MM arrival their minutes and influence on the pitch has improved hugely.

I believe that most fans base their opinions on what they have just seen i.e. the most recent game.

If either Flint or Pack have a howler then it is quite right that fans should be critical.

On the other hand if they play well they get the plaudits.

Well done to them both tonight - two great crosses by Marlon and two thumping headers from Flint.

I can almost forgive them both for their girlie headbands and scrunchies - almost.
