    I think the Arsenal and Southampton games in particular.

    He was unlucky for the penalty decision in the latter game, I thought he generally played very well in that one.

    fair enough, the ratings seem to be no better than average for those two games
    V Southampton
    http://www.goal.com/en-gb/match/asto...293892/ratings
    Stevens: 1/5
    Gave away the penalty that led to the goal and endured a torrid afternoon at the hands of the excellent Puncheon.

    Stevens 5/10Poor positioning left Villa exposed. Cruel penalty injustice.
    V Arsenal
    http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/spor...senal-0-336564
    Stevens 7/10
    Kept Oxlade-Chamberlain fairly quiet. Will do wonders for his belief
    http://www.goal.com/en/match/aston-v...293801/ratings
    Stevens 2.5/5
    Fared reasonably well up against Oxlade-Chamberlain on his own, but understandably had difficulty when Jenkinson joined the attack. The protection he got from Weimann was patchy.
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    Missed the fact that he won
    PFA Fans' League Two Player of the Season award

    Some achievement for a Left Back.

    Sheffieds ??

    Good to see him working his way back up the league. I had given up on him when he was out on loan at lower teams.

    Apologies UTD!
    Similar pattern to a lot of our players in recent years, work your way up from the lower leagues. The only problem with that is that by the time they are consifered for the national team you only get a couple of campaigns out of them

    You're forgiven

    I usually find the "Similar Threads" down the pages interesting. Often gives a good history of the player or a totally bizarre unconnected one. For Enda this one caught my eye: "Cat Stevens-Musician or Terrorist?". :0

    Thought he played well. I had high hopes for him when he was at Villa. Let's see if he can kick on now. Looks as if the manager will give him a chance.

    Another Irish scorer in the Championship tonight as Stevens got the first for Sheffield United - they're within sight of the playoffs now: http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/43178126

    Yeah, whipped in a few teasing crosses - goal set up by McGoldrick with one of his slide-rule passes. McGoldrick also got the foul that led to Forest going down to ten men

    The result brings them to second on points difference as Leeds faltered. I wouldn't like to be in the play-offs; Villa look like a freight train.

    So we now have an equivalent to Coleman on the left - Stevens got his fourth goal in six games today to equalize against Stoke: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48081883

    He definitely looks like a decent left full from what I've seen of him. Balance wise it makes sense for Mick to keep him there as much as possible. With Coleman on the right and Duffy and Keogh in the middle of the back four, the Irish defence is beginning to show signs of stability ahead of what is an important few games (although I'm a little concerned about Duffy's form in a Brighton team which really has no business in the Premier League - let's just say he's not evolving into a Gerard Pique or Virgil Van Dijk despite playing in one of the top leagues in world football). Stevens and his Irish team mates at Sheffield United will face a real examination of their credentials next season but the experience can only help Ireland in the long run.

    I would go easy on Duffy there. Every time I have seen him he's been fighting fires and it isn't an easy gig.

    It's not an easy gig for him and I can't see it getting any easier next term. In fairness to Duffy he played an absolute blinder against Arsenal on Sunday and I believe he got MOTM.
    However he is not the type of defender Ireland needs in the middle of the back four, and neither is Keogh for that matter.
    Both lads are great at sticking their head to the ball or hoofing it out over the halfway line. The problem at internaitonal level is, as we have seen for decades now, that the ball keeps coming back at you as the pressure builds.
    We need the type of defender who can take the ball on his chest, play short passes and begin moves that will put the opposition under pressure.
    That is in a perfect world, however, and I fear we are still light years from that type of football at internaitonal level.
