A Horse With No Name Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Just thought this guy deserved his own thread after a fantastic performance today. He has been getting better and better each game, and today was his best yet. Special mention also to his defensive partner Flinty who was also immense.

RedM Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 I think he is a great player too, very skilful on the ball and puts in a heck of a shift. I did read somewhere he's the only regular who hasn't scored yet, don't know how true that is? But he can't be far off, he is excellent at going forword and due a goal. I was doubtful when he came in, looked really lightweight compared to Osbourne but he has been excellent and has brought out the best in Flint. I can't remember a time when we had so many new players arrive at the same time and gel so well, imagine if we can hold on to them what they will be like in a year or two ( with a few tweeks). Exciting times for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clevedon Red Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 A real unsung hero, rarely puts a foot wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohbasso Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Got to agree I was unsure at first as he looked like he was playing out of position, but hats off to him he looks like he could play anywhere in defence or midfield now. Against Cheltenham I was really impressed the way every time he had the ball on the edge of our box he'd end up 10/15 yards into to the other half within a few seconds! He looked really strong today, well played Luke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS13 Robin Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 at the start of the season I was thinking what a waste of money but credit where its due he has steadily got better and better and thankfully proved me wrong....sorry Luke and well done!!!!

CheddarReds Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Agree he's been very good, one thing that impresses me and helps Flint is that Ayling is comfortable travelling forward with a ball at his feet, or finding a pass. On Flint, the thing that has been as pleasing as anything for me this season is 2 or 3 times a game I hear him shouting at his team mates which is what a commanding centre half should do IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS15_RED Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 The first defender we've had since Louis Carey was in his pomp that could bring the ball out from the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne allisons tongues Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Ian Dowie on soccer Saturday said Ayling and Williams play the football and leaves Flint to do the defending. He thought that was a smart move by SC to utilize the strengths of each player. Makes perfect sense and what we as fans have said this season.

Sniper Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 I was a bit disappointed with Luke in the first few games, but he is now starting to show what a great player he is! He also has his acting career in 'THE INBETWEENERS' to fit in around football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor10 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Excellent player. I think it's worth noting that as well as he is doing he isn't playing in his preferred position. So composed on the ball he's ideal on the right of a back 3 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDBS36 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Nice to see a defender who's comfortable with the ball at his feet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynamite Red Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 If Smith is out then I think Luke could play the defensive midfielder role. He so composed on the ball and has a great engine. Top player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
