I've always thought that about MDG.. holding mid. Doesn't mind a tangle, excellent when running forward with the ball. Not got the height/presence/pace to play in a two or a three at the back. But very comfortable with the ball at his feet in midfield..
Bland’s breakthrough has been one of the few positives since Conor took charge. A teenager with composure beyond his years who is versatile and will offer decent cover/depth next season.
