Ryan Manning

Manning gets lots of unfaircriticism in my opinion, Yes he may only be top Championship quality but he gives his all, and his 2 delicious crosses created2 goals.

Well done Ryan, you deserve praise

Agree although he does need to improve his defensive duties.

Yep

Like most players of his quality, he has both strenghts and flaws. If we can get the most out of his good qualities, and shore up around his worst, then he can play a big part for us this season.

He’s certainly been playing like a man possessed under TE but let’s not pretend he hadn’t been putting in some ropey performances before that. At Derby in particular he acted like an absolute helmet.

He reminds me of Danny Fox, shit in defence, but really decent going forwards

Very similar players. Manning is better in a 3-5-2 or whatever as there's less defending to do. I do think he stands off players because he knows he's not very fast. Either that or he just doesn't know how to defend. 

Having said that he's proving a real threat going forwards so it's swings and roundabouts.

He’s great going forward in a team looking to dominate, and an absolute liability in his own half when we’re under the cosh. Hopefully we’ll be doing well enough to not really require his defensive ‘skills’ going forward 

[SaintNate]

Really really decent player at this level. Don't think we could do much better.

Keep it up Ryan!
