The game I saw Croft be electric, and around the time he got a lot of plaudits

was against Barnsley

And in that game we went one down and we were awful first half

Second half we just clicked and Croft played well. A very nervous Bertrand came into the game because of this and we ended up battering Barnsley

From there we beat teams like Southampton away (although noted as a lucky win) preston barnsley again

Not saying I don't think Croft is good, but his good form coincided with playing lesser teams, and recently our fixture roll out hasn't been that great

When we do play a lesser side (ie Colchester), we win and show the form that got us results earlier in the season
