“He produced some great hold-up and link-up play despite some heavy marking.”

The Vital Lincoln City members’ voted for whom they believe was The Imps Man of The Match in their 3-2 win at home against Burton Albion in League One.

Views from PerthImp: “Gone for Hopper. Still relatively new and not been outstanding so far, nor shown any particularly outstanding glimpses of quality – until Saturday. Two goals – the second superbly taken – and he produced some great hold-up and link-up play despite some heavy marking. More to come hopefully.”

berksimps: “Josh Vickers for once. A much-improved performance which got better as the game progressed. He helped ensure we kept the three points with his tremendous penalty save and a late block. Just what was needed.”

Riiiiik: “Gone for Josh. Not just the penalty save but some impressive punches 2nd half when it could have all gone wrong trying to catch the ball whilst under pressure from their players. Strong performances from Morrell, Hopper and Bridcutt too.”

Casperimp: “I have gone for Hopper as I thought he had his best game for us. Despite his penalty save I couldn’t go for Vickers because although he had a good game I thought he should have done better with their opening goal. We were perfectly in line with it and their player hit it straight at Vickers and it went straight through him. I just think a professional goalkeeper should at least get something on it when the ball is hit directly at them.

EastvilleIMP: “Hopper for me, Vickers got better and had a good game – but still had a flap at a corner, thought he could have done better for the first and appears to still punch balls that look like they are there for catching (maybe I’m being harsh, especially as he as well as a few others kept the 3 points for us!).”
