Kellyman in the ten position

Sat Dec 06, 2025 3:18 pm

Excellent today I thought.

His pressing was excellent and he made some great passes out to Willock especially.

Definitely think he's the best option there.

Thought he done really well first half, and also noticed how he got himself into some positions and give himself loads of space and started a few attacks by doing so

Much better today his work rate was top notch, 2 or 3 times he closed down the center backs and forced them in to a mistake and on another day we would of scored from it

This surprised me.

Apart from a few steals, i am not sure what he done for the accolades. Perhaps i need to replay the game.

I agree actually.

I thought he did ok today and a slight improvement on his performances in a City shirt so far. Nothing special here.

All about opinions but as I say, he pressed as well as anyone and his progressive passing was good - especially in the build up to the first goal.

Won a lot of fouls too.

I reckon if that was Rubin then people would be falling over themselves in praise.

:lol: :lol: Its not because I am in the "Rubin for President" club, I just didn't think he did much at all, but as you say its about opinions and the only one that really counts is BBM. I'd like to see Ashford but especially Davies in the m,middle at home

1st goal come from him finding space and receiving the ball on the half turn and shifting it wide quickly to Willock.

Not sure I was watching the same game. A few good touches but did lose the ball a few times. Think we looked better when Joel played number 10 in second half. Think Omari will get better with more game time

He's doing okay.

But a player who is reportedly valued at £19m ( :lol:) should really be ripping League 1 apart.

I agree too he worked hard,pressed well but I thought he missed a few chances to play people in. He does look more natural in the role than Robinson though

Villa and Chelsea sold each other a youngster valued at about £1 million for £20mill, each reducing their FFP liability by £20 million

If he were born in Grangetown, would he be ahead of Troy Perret?

They kicked lumps out of him much of the game.

A lot if sides know they can’t compete with their football so they resort to the dark arts more

He played pretty well today.
But its all relative…… by comparisn with Robinson playing at no 10, Kellyman was brilliant!!!
