Hahaha

 

He really enjoyed that goal.

[J-V]

He's been superb since he got back in the side.  Fair play to the lad.

[Mathewbet1]

Brilliant stike a peach of a half volley. Hendersons back heel in the build - up was not bad either. Flannos been great since he came into the side.

[MLB]

Made up for him. So good to see local lads doing well in the team.

[Caramac]

[Gym Beglin]

Possibly my best friend.

[jamespp]

Class finish, looked like he surprised himself, ran to the crowd thinking "what? Me?"

[Elite]

That celebration is brilliant because you just know it meant more than anything to him. I hope he continues to improve and makes a name fot himself.

[Sangria]

Made up for him, he has come in and done a great job and that was the icing on the cake.  A few players could take a leaf out of his book, as his attitude is top notch.  

[LFC64]

Ya beauty

[JermainePennant]

I have been against flanno before but I am starting to be really impressed with him, he has very good postional sense and is also good on the ball.The way he has just come in to the team after a year out and and not looked out of place says something about his ability, he is also out of position.

 

To be fair Ive always seen potential with him but the lack of interest in him made me think there was a big flaw in him I must be overlooking, I think the main thing he needs to improve is his physique and with more experience I can see him being a good prem full back.

[Markmywords]

so chuffed for him

[billypilgrimnz]

He looked okay when he first came in, then he looked a bit shite, and now he looks a bit ace. Let's hope the pendulum has stopped swinging!

 

Good on the lad.

[Pureblood]

Apparently he offers nothing going forward...

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

He offers very little going forward, as evidence by everything he does. Yes, he was left unmarked and scored a goal. Is that going to be a regular thing? No, of course it isn't. It's bizarre that anybody can look at Flanno and think he offers lots going forward. He's slow, has no skill, and can't cross. He can't get into positions to cross with any real regularity. But wait, he scored, maybe he's Cafu after all. Carra scored occasionally, it doesn't mean he's Messi.

 

What he does have is desire, determination, aggression, and the will to get to the ball. I love that about him, but there's no reason to try to make out as if he's a wide-wizard. He's not even close.

[The Guest]

I'm getting emotional watching that GIF.

 

It's just great on so many levels.  Hopefully it will inspire a few of the youth players that little bit more.

[Fi!]

Some people here should really stop thinking that he will get red carded every game. He is petty well defensively compare to what Johnson offer in defence 

[Gnasher]

Best moment of a great day. Good on the kid, love his and kennys delight when the goal went in.

Could've had 2 or even 3 goals yesterday. Was in the box several times. Offers less going forward than Johnson, but at least he doesn't leave gaps everywhere and actually bothers to track his man at set pieces.

 

Plus, he got an erection celebrating his first league goal for us. You can't teach that type of desire. 

 

The lad's done well.  

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Pleased for him, the goal clearly meant a lot and capped a great performance.

 

I was shit scared he'd be turned inside out by Lennon and Walker, but they barely gave him any trouble.

 

Sakho linked up really well with him, covering when he got further forward and left any space in behind.

[Strontium]

Flanagan has improved so much, I can scarcely believe it's the same player who put in one of the worst performances I've ever seen in a red shirt against Blackburn a few seasons back.

[Mathewbet1]

Can't help but love the flan-meister.

[Reds4Life]

Boss signage going around the Lane when he scores.

 

Did indeed lad, did indeed.

 

First game ever versus Man City at home and he was superb. That in itself was enough to prove to himself that he could do it at that level.

 

Made up for him that he has got a run of games in the team, it will do him the world of good for his confidence as well as his game. He has really taken his chance and deserves his spot on merit.

 

Well in Flanno, keep it up lad.

[Rotpeter]

Face on Kenny when he scored.
