One of my fav players as I have said before but needs a good season next year with lists getting tighter and probably more talent from other clubs around with clubs forced to cut players they would normally keep.

Has good evasive skills (sidestep) and can get out of traffic and find clear air.

Hey, there were really good signs from Willo last night, took on the game, went the dash (in difficult conditions) and his disposal by foot was accurate and penetrating... I really think he got some confidence last night and hopefully will carry this into next season, and, yep, winger who drifts back and forward - potential huge headache for opposition club. I, also, am a big wrap for this kid... bad start but coming along nicely. Oh, and got some shyte on his liver, we like that.

Yep, very pleased by how Willo is developing. Hopefully he'll go on with it next year.

Willo gets a bit of a pass. He's effectively a second year player thanks to injury.

Cannot believe some of the quotes about Martin
Instead of putting his head over the aggot he squibbed it big time and McCarthy goals
So screwing overrated
If don’t believe me watch the replay
The guy picks and chooses

I'm not sure about his efforts at the contest but he definitely picks and chooses about whether (or not) to chase when he doesn't have the ball. Has the speed when he wants to use it but too often his chase is half-hearted and he allows opponents to leave him behind when running into attacking positions.

Murphy and Cripps don't chase, why does Martin have higher expectations?

I'd be wary of drawing firm conclusions about work rate and chasing on the TV. Not being able to see what happens off camera is a big issue. I think all players from all clubs will give up the chase at some point, I think all players have to make a split second decision about whether to chase or not chase. i'm sure sometimes they may think some other mug will do it, or they may simply be too stuffed or focussing on the next contest. There may also be specific instructions from the coach about numbers at the contest vs numbers on the outside, as I've mentioned earlier.
