Cider red Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Sorry if this has been covered else where but I couldnt see a thread. Thought he was top draw again last night, no nonsense defender who can actually dribble and pass the ball when needed. A class above Foster and I don't think its any coincidence the defence has been shored up since he has come into the team. I also think he compliments Cunningham on the other side as they are the same kind of defenders. Just goes to show how keeping the faith in dross players like foster has put us in the position we are now and ultimately lost Del his job. Even if we go down there are signs of better times ahead if this is the kind of signing O'driscoll is looking to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevP Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Absolutely agree 100%. He has done brilliantly in the 2 games so far. Looks to be a shrewd signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Looks very promising so far. He's certainly not a load of baloney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin1988 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Summed up when Forestieri tried to cut in off the left and Moloney tracked him all the way, didn't let him get a shot away. Been a solid start from the lad and long may it continue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibs Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 After some of the rubbish we have wasted money on over the past few seasons, it just goes to show what bargains are there to be had. Gong on his first two performances, I am still pretty amazed we got him on a free. Keep it up fella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allyolly Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Forest mate of mine said as soon as we signed him we had a good deal. Could nt understand why he was nt a regular for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Very pleased indeed. As I said after his debut, he is 50% taller and 100% better than Foster. Young player too. He is likely to get even more handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearded_red Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 He has certainly had a very good start to his City career. As I posted on another thread the other day, ever since Brad went to QPR we have needed a solid, no nonsense right back (Hunt, Foster and Wilson haven't exactly done the job) and early impressions of Moloney are extremely encouraging. Although we all know the centre of defence needs work, we can rest slightly easier in the knowledge that we now have two accomplished fullbacks in Moloney and Cunningham.

Super Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Early days i know but we haven't had two quality full backs for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid in the Riot Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Early days i know but we haven't had two quality full backs for a long time. Some will no doubt disagree, but Orr and Jamie Mac served us extremely well as two consistent, no-nonsense full backs. Moloney and Cunningham are perhaps technically better players but also seem to get the basics right. Moloney was 24 last week and Cunningham is 22 today (Happy Birthday Greg!) and I hope these two remain our full backs for many years to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedminster Born And Red Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Doesn't really look like a footballer in stature (knock kneed etc.) but the important thing is that in his two appearances so far he has played like one!! Certainly an improvement over what we have been watching in that particular position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC101 Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 So, 9 games into his time at City and what a signing he's been (and for free!)! Very solid at the back, pretty much nothing goes past him, and also very good getting forward. Quickly becoming one of my favourite City players.

Gazred Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 I reckon he will get on the scoresheet before the seasons out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Been very impressed with him so far. Good in the tackle ,good going forward and can put a put a decent cross in. Hopefully this is the start of a long and successful City career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 class will he be here next season regardless? i would hope him and GC would be with us whatever division we are in. If we do go down and keep players like those we hopefully would only spend one season outside of the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Been brilliant so far and represents excellent value having been signed on a free transfer. Hopefully S.O'D will be able to produce more of these sorts of signings in future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forza Revolution Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Moloney and Cunningham are quality. So are the rest at the moment to be fair. Pearson is the only player I worry about if I was being picky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
