Not the point I was making.

 

Numerous posters have written Milner off. Old Man Milner and questioning virtually every performance.

 

He came up against Zaha, who has previously given Milner a chasing, and didn’t give him a kick.

 

The point is, I doubt any signed under study would have done as well as Milner did on Saturday. Maybe not 2/3 times a week, but Milner still has the ability to significantly contribute this season.

 

I wrote him off when he arrived here.

 

But then again, I went to Liverpool v Palace in April 2017 too.

I thought Zaha would give Milner a roasting to be honest.

I was wrong and I'm happy about that. Milly was outstanding.

His match match recovery might take a bit longer these days, but what a player and what a pro he is.

 

I think people forget that yes, Milly was red carded in a previous tie, but I also remember him playing in an evening game at Palace and putting Zaha in his back pocket on that occasion as well.

He got sent off twice in his career but for fouls against Zaha right? People had a reason to be worried. Zaha had an off day, but when he’s on he’s one of the most dangerous players in the league.

Milner's performance all the more impressive for the fact he was paired with a RB with whom he hadn't played any(?) competitive football.

I presume he means right centre back - Konate
