Yeah he was, for his size he wins a lot of headers too. Shame he missed the golden chance to score, and glad it didn’t cost us, he wouldn’t have deserved the stick he would’ve got. He is performing consistently well right no.

What a burst of pace he showed when knocking the ball past their lad, steaming past him then getting assaulted. That was class.

He really has improved going forward.
I'd to see what the old poster Worksop Willy had to say about him!

He showed a turn of pace that I didn’t know he had in him towards the end of the game when he was tripped by a defender as he sprinted past him.

It was great play but pace is often only relative to who you are running against!

Yeah, fair enough but he did look quick in that instance.

Credit where credit is due, he was outstanding today. His form was indifferent early doors of the season but he has been getting better and better with each and every game. Long may it continue.

Definitely a contender for MOTM, Sterry has had his fair share of stick but he is getting better game by game

If he’d scored straight after half time, he would have pissed the motm.

Yeah, absolutely.

Why praise one of our players when you can find a negative. A superb run by Sterry but let’s be honest, he was running against a really slow opponent.

And how he won the free kick I’ll never know.

What a shit ref. Sterry conned him there.

It certainly was for “A nothing player”.

Why do you continue to set yourself up with such ridiculous statements?

Forget it. I know there’ll be another one trotted out somewhere soon.

Since coming back into the side against Colchester he’s been quality and back to the levels he shown last season.

Received a lot of unfair criticism this season as he’s nowhere near as bad defensively as ppl make out and does a lot that doesn’t get noticed but he’s our top assister and one of the most creative players.

Starry looks better when we play better. Is it the team performances making him look better or his performances making the team better?

I think he's been more consistent for a while now, alongside McGrath and Olowu, and as we've improved generally in the last couple of games, he can get more involved in forward areas. Shame he didn't finish that chance when he latched onto the one-two by keeping going into the box. Also, since he splattered that one in (with the assist of Streets head) he also seems to be in the mix for taking set pieces. 

Hopefully, Maxwell will catch him up when and if the left side gets the same level of interplay between players as the right.

I think as confidence grows the passing gets slicker which is good for everyone.

My only criticism is that sometimes he delays a pass allowing an opponent to block or stop a pass that could have been made a couple of seconds earlier.

One of the first on the team sheet for me, classy and clever player, and has been for a long time.

Sterry and Maxwell must be the best full backs at this level with their ball into the box.

Possibly the first, I've heard that he can be a fairweather player.

And it really annoys me when we don't use these weapons often enough.

I’d provably keep him if we don’t go up. Definitely release if we do.

Harsh call for me that Gaz. If we go up id keep him. Hes vastly improving and would earn the right to play in league 1.

I agree and like Alfie he gets better the more he plays. Please don't give another gem away if we get promoted.

Obviously these things have a financial/wage value aspect that we are not privy to.

Making smart decisions in football involves removing all emotion an not just making what seemingly the obvious decision.

In Sterrys case we have seen him look good at times over the last two years but far too often look pretty average and poor at times. Judging him on games in the last 4/5 months of his contract is a huge trap.

Is he good enough to push us towards the top half of L1? I’m fairly sure he isn’t. If the club have real solid evidence that he is at that level, and not just the opinion of the current manager, then give him a contract. I’m lucky enough to have had access to player models equivalent to what top EPL clubs use to judge players and I’ve never seen any evidence of that level of preference from him. Couple that with what I see every week, and his age… it’s a no in L1 for me.


I’d guess that sentiment will take over and he’d get another deal if promoted.

Then ran at pace through the chessie defence to provide a good chance which Street put over the bar.
