Not sure why he was playing centre back and Bright stealing the ball from him for the second goal helped set us up. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

That was probably his best ever performance for us. A modern day Richard Keogh at the heart of their defence. | ![](/images/avatars/9990.gif) |

Not so sure on that one, can't recall another defender who so casually jogged / walked back into our half when caught up field - trademark stand-off for the cross for our 1st goal today - fairly ironic when Manning is criticized for this after Jake did it for 3 seasons and offered nothing going forward. All credit to Eustace for recognising Manning was a far better option at probably a third of the wage. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Thought he took us for the fools we were in recent years - can't blame him for his limitations (chronic lack of pace at fullback makes it difficult to play at Championship level) and the salary we offered, but imo was not a team player as always played narrow so as not to be exposed for pace, never got tight for same reason so allowed too many crosses into the box, mastered the 5 yard inside pass to nowhere and somehow never got called out for it. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

He was no Roberto Carlos granted, but was rarely skinned. Just a solid pro. Certainly don't remember any mistakes like he made today. In the Ramage mold of limited but steady players. | ![](/images/avatars/6600.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

He was rarely skinned because he was always 20 yards from the touchline. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Manning on 4 with 1 goal. Manning the better player though because of the energy he brings. | ![](/images/avatars/6600.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Same as when he was with us. Never saw anything in him. Weak and always a sideways pass. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Was you at Griffin Park 3 years ago ?? He was voted MOTM by Bees fans. Stole a living at QPR. Last season was his best year for us, but was rarely a 6/10 . | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Bidwell man of the match for us on 22:00 - Jan 5 with 2318 views | TacticalR | He always looked happier at left-back, coming forward when he felt like it, rather than trying to play wing-back (didn't Holloway call it the 'graveyard shift'?). God knows why he chose to go on a run across his own box. | ![](/images/avatars/7026.gif) |

I agree. It is far too easy to slag off ex players. He was just an average left back for this level imo. | ![](/images/avatars/7509.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
