Alex Robertson

On its own, that strike deserves its own threads

Brilliant finish in a brilliant moment.

Since he arrived, I've believed him to be the best technical player we have. He has a good shot, brilliant passing and good movement in possession.

Still needs to work on his defensive play for the position he now plays but he's a top player.

Good shout
Incredible strike at a perfect time , that goal could be even more important than we think , the confidence this win will give these players now
Love Robertsons fight and desire , and attitude is 2nd to none . A top young player and there’s better to come I believe

Scapegoat in the week by some clowns on here.

He's a player. Get behind him.

I don't think anyone has scapegoated him, he's a very good player who should be one of the first names on the team sheet. I haven't seen anyone even calling for him to be dropped. He's not a defensive midfielder though

Gunnarson wasn't a defensive midfielder at AR's age; he developed into one as he got older. Experience teaches you where to be before it happens; it's a tough job, very few are great at it early in their career.

During the summer, I thought Wintle leaving was BBM's vote of confidence in evolving AR into a defensive midfielder. I still think he is better at 8, but I believe in our manager's opinion even more.

I don't think we'd have gone in for the Norwegian guy if BBM was totally comfortable with Robertson at 6. The plan was to have him slot in if he had to

I think the idea was to bring in someone to compete with Robertson for the six position. If you look at our midfielders, Robertson was probably always in mind to play that position.

Rubin/Joel compete for the 8. Moylan and Ashford at 10.

Interestingly, Hjerto-Dahl has played only nine minutes in the league this season and he hasn't been injured.

I think there's a good possibility he'll be here on loan in January. I viewed it as we'd get a 6 in Robertson would be his back up and compete with Joel at 8

Pleased for the Lad

Funnily enough his dad Mark used to play for Burnley.
