Some people were a bit nervy to begin with, with regards to RM chosen line-up, however yet again he has shown us he is no idiot.

 

A good performance all round (as expected), with everyone putting in a good performance, although two or three stood out from the bunch -

Naismith ran himself into the ground today and showed us why he's so much better in the centre of the pitch.

Robles pulled off some decent saves and deserves credit for that because if we'd have conceded one earlier on in the game, as everyone knows, it could have been a different story.

However, today I gave it to Mirallas. There is no doubting the flair and dribbling skills he posseses, but for me his biggest downfall is decision making. Today he wasn't always thinking about himself and capped off a fantastic performance.

Lets continue this good form into the derby shall we?! And lets hope Oviedo gets better ASAP and this dosnt tint his potential that he holds for the team.

A straight choice for me between Mirallas and Naismith, although there were so many good performances today.

 

I was especially pleased to see Joel play confidently and make some good saves, which has probably settled everyone's nerves again after the goal he conceded against Southampton; great to see Hibbo back in the side and making some good tackles, showing his experience and even getting high up the pitch at times; McGeady impressed me with his skills and I was pleased to see him get the full 90 minutes under his belt; Naisy ran non-stop, was always alert to the through ball and his second finish in particular was nicely taken.

 

But I vote for Mirallas who I thought was a revelation through the middle but popped up everywhere across the front line and - as Aiden says - his decision-making was much better. The flick and overhead kick to assist Heitinga's goal was a touch of class, and I was impressed with his work-rate throughout. We need him to repeat that on Tuesday.

At a time when our playmakers are injured, we have needed someone to step up.

A month ago I was calling for Mirralas to be dropped because of his seeming lack of effort and him not joining the fight.

 

I think he has read my comments and listened. The last few weeks even when things haven't gone right he has still worked hard. Yesterday he did both and was Mom by a mile.

 

Good to see Naisy got some credit for his efforts.
