I was actually very disappointed with Thanoj today. Against a side like Hyde he should surely have been getting on the ball and dictating play. I thought he was pretty anonymous really.

For all the clamour for him to be in the team at the expense of Kerr/Disley, Thanoj arguably showed today why he hasn't been able to hold down a regular place in the side.

Don't get me wrong he wasn't terrible or anything, and he did fizz a few decent passes out to players in space. But I forgot he was playing for spells of that game.

It's almost like he ambled around wanting to be in the areas that Kerr was occupying, but Kerr was there first picking the ball up deep and directing the play. I hope Thanoj can learn from that aspect of Kerr's game - the way he gets players to give him the ball - and start to show it himself if he stays next season.

Him and Kerr are not a good partnership because we don't have good balance. They both want to play deep on the ball. Disley runs ahead of the play and could have got in on goal today against Hyde's high line. As much as people on here have wanted Disley out of the team, Disley with Kerr or Thanoj gives us a much better balance.

I like Thanoj and he's technically a good player, but for me he still appears unable to have a sustained impact on games for more than 20-minute spells. I was expecting a lot more from him today against a team that let us have a lot of the ball without putting us under great pressure.

Agree Tommy. Doesn't impose himself on a game. Pretty but ineffective. Game was crying out  for someone to run beyond the strikers from deep.

Disley's true value becomes even clearer when he's not there. Have said all season that he'd always be the first CM on the team sheet for me.

Agree.

I do wonder if his laid back style is holding him back. I seem to recall he has told people he won't be here next season, maybe that is why he isn't quite seizing his opportunities.

Arriving at 2pm won't have helped and gives the impression of couldn't care less attitude?

I do like him as a player, he has talent but looks like he needs a kick up the bottom imo

Agree with Tommy's post. I thought he could have done a lot better and needs to get about the pitch more for me. He was by no means alone in turning in a very average performance, but I agree that he and Kerr together are not balanced. I'd rather have Kerr and Paddy or Disley and Paddy.
