Singled out as the star man by Independent.co.uk also. He was one of only two players they gave an 8/10 rating, the other being James Morrison.

seems like he didn't get MOTM in the rating they use, but I guess stats do no always give a true reflection of play.

It's like he is the most straightforward guy in the world. You can tell from his body language exactly what is going to happen. If it is a big game, or he has been sitting stewing watching a crap performance for 60 minutes, he'll tear the place up. Otherwise it's usually so-so.
I also can't help but like the guy. His no ****s given attitude is so refreshing in this era of the usual media trained guys
Bring Back Belfast Celtic F.C.
Maybe, I think about 5 of the 22 on the pitch got a better rating
This is petty good, it shows how each player played ie James made 2 dribble and 3 tackles.
Sanchez made 11 dribbles but he was disposessed twice.
Actually that is a really good feature, tonnes of info on it.

Goalllllllllllllllllllll!!!
Good headed goal, long cross in from the right,got up above a defender
First goal for West Brom for McClean
Took it well. Good man Seamus.
Well timed run . Very hard for the defender to have the same momentum to challenge for the ball.
Just watching Match of the Day - should have been sent off for a fairly brutal tackle on Dembele. Classic McClean.
Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?
Great goal, but very lucky to be on the pitch at the end.
Great endeavour to win the header and power it into the net for the goal, although just seeing his late tackle on Dembele now on 'MOTD' and it was pretty reckless. I don't think there was intent to harm, but he completely missed the ball and instead connected with Dembele's shin with the swinging leg. Lucky to have gotten away with a yellow-card.
Ridiculous tackle. Needs to sort his head out - having a great game, just keep the aggression on a reasonable leash.
Interview with James, I recommend putting the subtitle/captions on if you are struggling to understand (the cc button)

Pulis should school him on controlled aggression. Pulis is the man to do it. I would say he is pretty good on the controlled aggression himself.
Some very high praise from Pulis: http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2015/...mcclean-after/
