Glad he's doing well, I liked the look of him last season but unfortunately we didn't get to see much of him. I just felt that he needed a bit of time playing to be able to find his feet in the league, but with CMS and McLean that obviously wasn't going to happen.
Fantastic result today, we've reached the level that we can perform at over the last few games after a bit of a slow start.
Joe has had a bit of a confidence problem this season which has led to some mistakes, but I think with such a price tag and being in the full England squad expectations got too high too quickly, which has led to some criticism. Today, however, he showed how good he is, and I hope that's the boost he needs.
