Boat, certainly, I think it's probably fair to say every time we've seen him, he's looked a bit better.
Might be one of these players that has just needed game time.
And Matthews as well.
I've said all along, actually, I don't think Matthews has had many...
He might have had one or two suspect games.
Home to Stoke was a poor one where he got a bit caught out for Stoke's goal.
Still one or two question marks over how robust he is at this level.
Even at the end again last week he had a bit of cramp, I think, didn't he?
We've seen that a couple of times from him.
Can you rely on him to play week in, week out?
I don't think we know that yet.
But if Boat and Matthews are together for a few games...
or come back together later in the season if they need to.
I don't think we'd have as many worries as we previously would have done, because they've shown they can do it.
I thought they both defended sensibly.
They won the headers.
They didn't do anything silly.
They did OK with the ball at their feet, finding teammates going forward.
Matthews likes to get the ball at his feet and get forward a little bit, doesn't he?
