Have that

He did very well in the second half (i didn't see the first half) He was positive and creative, although I could have driven a truck through that Barnsley midfield. He needs to keep performing like that. He's starting to prove me wrong as i thought that he was done.
He's prepared to get on the ball and try things, there isn't anyone else like that in our team. He does leave a bit of space behind him although Pack seems to understand that and seems to compensate for Tomlins creativity. Long may it continue. It would be even better if he had a striker to play off.
Tomlin is basically what we've been missing since Whittingham left/went off the boil.
Sometimes you have to carry them, but they can pull something out of nothing and win you a game. Some managers just won't play someone like that (See Warnock) but others think the potential benefits outweigh the negatives.
That’s quite right, it’s all about perseverance, the likes of Whittingham & Tomlin can be anonymous for long periods but, Jesus, they can come up trumps when it’s least expected which can be a nightmare for opponents who think they’ve done a job on them. Warnock seemed reluctant to take that chance, would Whitts have flourished under hm? Debatable.
Didn’t know he was on the pitch first 10 or 15 minutes, but a goal and an assist shows why we need a player like him.
You’ve got to make room in your team even if that means he may not be as great defensively, although he does chip in to be fair.
Read he ran 12k last game.
I know Pack isn’t a battling midfielder who flies into tackles, and I know he makes the odd bad pass/wrong choice of pass but I think him Tomlin and Ralls could work well. I know it’s not the level of some in the division but we can’t really do anything about that now, so for the season at least we need to get the best 3 out there and those are it for me. One defensive minded, one high energy box to box, one attacking minded player who likes to get the ball FORWARD!! They can pass the ball too (well Ralls not so much)
Tomlin was tightly marked throughout the game. Whenever he got the ball he had 1 or 2 Barnsley players right on his shoulder - even when he scored the winner. Really good performance..
Neil Harris has really turned this team around. Today was the most entertaining game in a long time. It takes balls to stick with Tomlin for 90 minutes. Well done NH.
I should probably eat some humble pie over this, although to be fair he might as well have not been on the pitch in the first half!
Yes Neil Harris could turn this team around and i do not that i think Warnock was no good but a change of ideas is massive
