Once again a masterclass

 

What a player

what commitment

What class 

 

Best player on the pitch by light years 

[FlyingOwl]

If he scored that chip I’d have jumped out my window in celebration.

 

But yes. Ran the show tonight. He’s so much better when he’s next to Luongo.

[trev]

Yup, brilliant. Again.

[SiJ]

The man's cardio/workrate is insane frankly. 

 

He's 32 and still running around like a 22 year old. 

 

 

[WhiteOwl91]

He’s the problem at this club…

 

Allegedly

We would be up the creek without him, awesome today.

I know Gregory will get the plaudits, and righty so, but bb was absolutely class tonight. He’s way to good for L1 and nights like tonight just highlight it. 

[Owly Mowly]

Even in that horrendous pitch he still looked class - his ball control is absolutely insane

You think it was a shot?

Absolutely different class tonight. The second half of this season he has been phenomenal. Being pushed further forward has really unlocked another level for him. That nearly goal would have been one of the most special goals I'd have seen in years at any level.

[McRightSide]

Outstanding performance (again)

He has tried to chip the keeper at the far post like that in at least one other game this season (though I couldn't tell you this one, I believe on the opposite side of the box).

 

It is 100% a shot. Watch it again. There's a small element of "put in an area" for sure, but he's gone for a dink over the keeper who he knows has been drawn to the near post from his check back. It's an absolute class piece of play... speculative for sure, but intentional no doubt

Of course it was a bloody shot.

Fantastic player for us and arguably our best midfielder since Sheridan in the way he runs the game. 

Would be intrigued to see how he would have fared playing in a slower paced league with more time on the ball such as La Liga or Seria A earlier in his career. 

 

[deano]

It was a shot, surprised anyone could think otherwise.

There are only closet pigs on the wind up that post differently .

 

Bannan is absolute class. Anybody says different is first rate buffoonn.

That would have been a beaut.

I was behind the goal and it was absolutely a shot, he glanced at the keeper's position before chipping it. How the follow ups stayed out, 3 times,  was just typical of our luck.
