Virgo was saying similar about Sam Baldock on the radio. Maybe David Burke could spot a player after all?!

Some brilliant performances tonight but Stephens was immense. 2.5 million would not buy one foot at the moment

Kayal ahead of Stephens for me, but really together they are by far the best central midfield pairing in the league. A real test for us when either get injured.

Baldock appears to have found his form finally, Stephens there was never any doubt just got a bad injury at the wrong time.

Virgo was also saying how we didn't make one signing to improve the squad last season. Stephens was a bit earlier, but Baldock and Stockdale were last summer.

Nope, I'm not having it.

I'm not having these week in week out MOTM performances.
Don't get me wrong, he good, he's getting better, he's performing really well in a strong team.
But he's not out performing everybody else.

Tonight his forward distribution was so-so, break up play great, side ways movement also great, but still no assists.
Fantastic goal, if only Solly could strike the ball like that.
But Stephens was responsible for both Rotherham's first half attacks.
And he's just a smidge slower on the ball than everybody else.

He's a very good player, currently playing very well.
Had he played like this last year he'd be Player of the Season, already.

But we're different gravy this year, Baldock, Bruno, Murphy, Uwe, means I'm just not seeing Stephens as MotM.
We're incredibly lucky he's not usually our best centre midfielder. (although he was tonight)
