    Ben Williams, M.O.T.M.

    My 500th post so i'll start my first thread.

    Ben Williams...his save in the first half to keep the score down to 3-0 was crucial...4-0 and there was no way back

    2nd last minute of extra time...everyone is celebrating and i feel the importance of yet another save in a one on one situation might be overlooked but this save was out of the top drawer and kept the game from going to a penalty decider.

    Ben Williams...at last we have a keeper worthy of the jersey.

    Yes couple of vital saves, but MOTM not in my opinion.....Harris for me....

    Excellent keeper and made a number of important saves yet again today, however MOTM has to go to Harris, one goal, one assist and a bright spark on an initially woeful performance. Williams has been an absolute steal for us, real quality keeper.

    The save 1 on 1 v taylor kept us in it (in the grand scheme of things). His save right at the death was also superb. If it wasnt for Harris I would've given it to Ben.

    Harris for me.

    His directness and willingness to attack the defenders changed the game

    Leigh will obviously win our POTY award but Williams (and probably Claros) should run him very close.

    Ben was excellent today and its not often you can say that about a keeper who has lost 3 goals. The 4 defenders in front of him are another story but it does feel good to know we have someone between the sticks who will save us numerous points every season, rather than one that will cost us points (see Zibi, Makalamby etc).

    The 1v1 save at 3v0 was a game changing moment

    Yep. Plus the one right at the end of ET. It was like celebrating a goal when he saved and held onto that shot from the impressive Lyle Taylor.

    Superb keeper, happy to have him. And he made a couple of great saves today,
    .
    Always solid, but MOM definitely Harris for me.
    Alcohol IS the answer, but I forget the question...

    Just watched the highlights and Taylor was a good yard offside with that shot at the end, whilst Super Leigh was onside when he put the ball in the net at the start of extra time but the same linesman flagged him off. Didn't matter in the end, but it so easily could have...
