The thing about Murphy is that he's at his best when not playing as a traditional winger.Originally Posted by Chris Pontprennau Blues
Pleased for him today
His last season for Norwich he played a more roaming role. His runs, pace, crossing and finishing were sublime.
He can easily beat players when running at them at pace but he doesn't seem to do it from a standing start, which has been frustrating. Especially as before MM we weren't playing to his strengths, we were a very static team and expecting him to perform a task he isn't good at.
However, the system that MM and TC have implemented seems to suit him and Ojo very well. They get to drop a bit deeper and make runs to receive the ball. Both have goals and assists since MM and TC took over.
