The new Graham Hyde. Similar in style and stature, comfortable on the ball. 

Hopefull he can kick on and break through permanently in the future. 

Weve been up at the top of the division at under 18s over the last few seasons, so maybe we're seeing a bit of fruition. 

 

My memory is rubbish but iirc he had quite a combative style didn't he? Really hope Hunt has the physicality to cut it in this league!

Yeh he aint a Graham Hyde who was a more aggressive energetic player.

 

Hunt is more of a baller like Bannan but based on a few bits I've seen could be better.

Not for me 

 

Hunt is much more mobile than Hyde ever was and has a greater range of passing .

I think it was great to see a young lad making such an accomplished contribution today. Yes he got caught a few times in possession but several of those were him being sold short by others in the team. However, he's young, he'll learn quickly how to protect himself in these faster paced games. I thought some of his passes and flicks were delicious and showcased his vision and skill and he will be an asset to the club. Monk needs to stick with him giving him decent game time to build his confidence and repertoire.

The future is looking bright for him.

give him time, judge the finished article.

getting medals is fantastic, but they hurt like **** when they are ripped off.

Looked promising, hope to see him feature in the last 3 games, may have a better feel then for his potential - still very early days.  Re stats, not sure how much this really tells us (as others have said).  I’m sure the commentators yesterday said QPR had made over 500 completed passes yesterday compared to a figure below 200 for us.  Only problem for them was it was a typical performance from a Warburton team, pass, pass, pass but go nowhere. 

but some of our supporters would have knocking yet another one out over it, as that is the 'proper' way to play.

sides with fantastic money can afford a multi-pass game (they have vastly better players) BUT still carry a savage cutting edge.

week after week silly sides are being caught out 'overplaying' the ball around for the sake of it, inviting pressure upon themselves.

it is 'the emperor's new clothes' and long may sides play it against us.

Unbelievable bashing of him already.

 

Highest pass completion rate with the most amount of touches. Didn't shy away, worked hard, some nice touches, looked to get involved, was involved further up the pitch to on the opponents area. All positives. 

 

Played well. Hopefully will bulk up physically with time and will keep progressing

Typical of some outright appendages on here. Young kid comes into first team and gets beaten up because hes not Maradona after 3 games. We have some proper f##king tools as fans.

I remember he came through the junior ranks as more of a playmaker, but when he broke into the first team he was usedin a more a combative midfielderrole.

Was a bit of a busy little bee that liked to get stuck in and put hislef about, but the lad could play.
