Ryan Mason

[Chrisd_123]

What a game the lad had today! Every one of them played fantastic today but Mason had a stormer. He has to start the next two games, he's the only player who really looks to run at defences and does it with success. My MOTM today.

[mushRTID]

JET has effectively wasted an important season of his career when he could have had a full pre season and season working with SOD.

Hopefully Mason will be different and come back next year, he could be an important player for us.

Long term loanees that are good enough too get into the first 11 are going to be key for our success in this league. When SOD goes onto manage Man U or Chelsea, can we have his son as manager?

I'd love us to get Mason signed up, he was superb today.  Think SOD has a point, how do you play him?  Using him leaves us open but I actually think he's a player we need in the squad as he just runs with pace.  I'd love us to keep him, fantastic game.

surelyhe's thetype of player to sit just off the striker, a bit like Peter Beardsley did?  darting around any of our strikers and feeding them quality ball would result in more chances - that would still allow a creative midfield inc copps but also with those killing players like Gillet and Stock.

Either that or i hear Billy Whitehurst is available on a free

Defend with a high line, playing offside trap and use Gillett in front of the defence to break everything up, close down at all times. Would allow Stock to stroke the ball around, Oster, Mason and Coppinger to run at people and move about supporting the lone Sharp/Euell.

A bit of passion is good, but you can take it too far :dry:

He was encouragingly good today Mason. Justified his start ahead of Moussa who was poor against Palace.

Also thought Gillett was fantastic in front of the defence, and his work allowed Mason, Oster and Coppinger to bomb on and support Euell.

Gillett is fast becoming my favourite player. Quality again.

[Akinfenwa]

Gillett puts a right shift in every game and can play a bit too! Prefer him playing deeper like he was today than more advanced like he's been playing in the previous few games.

[Filo]

Mason should start next week as SoD won`t play Moussa against his parent club

[Donnylass]

Friend and Gillett have come on so much this season and work so hard. A lot of games I thought either one could have been MOM for me.

[AbsolutDRFC]

Mason was a big positive today. Amazed that SOD hasn't unleashed him earlier in the season.
Thought Euell, Copps, Gillett, Friend, Thomas were all excellent today.
Hayter worked tirelessly without reward, again.

Hopefully Stock will return on Saturday which will provide a nice problem for SOD.
Personally I'd play Mason, Euell, Copps as the front three and put Hayter on the bench.

Totally agree. Don't know where Gillett gets his energy from.

[VikingJames]

Wayne Thomas MoM for me. But Friend, Mason, Gillett, Euell and Copps weren't far behind.

We had to send Mason back to Spurs around early Dec, when he started having growth spurts. Came back alot leaner as well.

[DonnyHodge]

Mason had a fantastic performance in him, and i cant see why he wouldnt be played for the remaining two games. Im sure he wont be in the spurs fold next year, and id like to see him back at the keepmoat with a fit billy sharp!

[mushRTID]

Sign him up for next year!!!

From his twitter;

Well done to the lads! Been a tough season, confident next year will be a better one!

Also a big thanks to the fans, been brilliant and helped us through !

Confident the lads will do well next year whether I'm here or not tweeps.. Not a clue sorry lol

Sounds like he has enjoyed it here too, lets get him for the season and watch him go.

[drfcsteve]

He really showed his quality today, hope we can keep him.

He said in his interview on Player that his dream is to make it at Spurs, but surely he must realise that he's gonna have to wait for his time, currently he's behind Van der Vaart, Bale, Modric, Jenas etc. He's only 19 isn't he? Another season in the championship will be good for him.

[DonnyOsmond]

After two brilliant games in a row we should really try and get him again next season, he could definitely help us push towards the Play-Offs. Someone have a word with him on Twitter encouraging him to come back next year, I know it's SOD's choice firstly. Like others have said he wont get in to that Spurs team at the moment, he should stay with us another season, get some more experience then return to Spurs the following year a better player.
