Probably is going to be our most desirable asset come the summer transfer window.
I have been critical of him in the past. He is really developing well. Still think there is more to come in terms of development and he needs a bit more to his game than just pace. However, it says a lot about him and MPH that nobody is clamouring for any of our other new (or existing) wingers to start which is always a good sign...
And he's also part werewolf.
This is a fair enough point. I really meant when it comes to beating a player, he needs a bit more guile sometimes than just trying to use his pace to knock it past them. You are absolutely right on his wider game..
I’d still put Cumming in goal myself, Cam might struggle to claim crosses.
Fair point. A bit of a goalkeepers union point but I would say that, after coming for a cross that he had absolutely no business going for, he did at least commit to it. Which we certainly always used to be told to do. Once you’ve made the mistake, better to disrupt the player who wins the ball than be caught in no man’s land doing nothing. Most importantly, we got away with it.
Cumming makes the odd mistake but he has won us far more points than he has lost us. I think he generally a very good keeper.
I was glad I couldn’t really see what was happening but it was a bad series of moments
As a (former) member of the Goalkeepers Union, completely agree. He possibly should have punched, but no matter. He is an excellent keeper- our best since Phil Whitehead in the mid 90's.
Agree. The fact he is not perfect is a good thing as he would be gone to a bigger club.
I might be totally wrong but Hackett if I remember rightly had a lot of pace and was very quite dangerous but what I thought actually stopped him being as valuable as dean whitehead at the time was his ability to pass
Totally disagree
As a probable much older former goalie I don't understand why goalies punch 99% of the time when it's safer to catch and then your team has control of the ball anyways...
He was struggling under Rowett a bit in terms of consistency...
And did the critics note his distribution compared with the Rovers keeper
Which is a kind of chicken and egg thing - get a run of games but plus coaching to improve your abilities
Wingers generally do. But all season he has looked dangerous and an asset. It would have been very obviously poor judgement to loan him out.
I think for most of the season, most players struggled to perform well twice in a row hence why we have only just won more than one game in a row. Mills was no different and had chances but until now was not performing consistently.
I disagree. I think for a large part of the season he struggled with aspects of his game at times. Things just did not click for him under Rowett consistently. It happens. If Rowett had stayed, this may have stayed the case so loaning him out may have been the best thing at the time.
I reckon that clubs will be making offers for Mills next season.
