Players you thought were bad at Town but turned out to be decent 20:24 - Jun 13 with 2669 views | BlueySwede | I´ll start with... Kieffer Moore. My opinion was probably influenced by others, but looked a bit like a donkey. Has had a decent career, at a higher level than I expected him to. |  | | |  |

He was really bloody poor here wasn't he? Genuinely bemused to see him go on and do so well. |  |

I wasn't, I always thought he was a very good player but he was either played out of position or demoralised by his own fans. I was pleased as punch when he won the play offs with Palace and even more chuffed after the game to see him break down with relief and delight. |  |

Exactly. He and Gareth Macauley were excellent for us when played in the right position. |  | |  |

He wasn’t fit or rather we signed him so late that we didn’t give him a run at it to make a difference. Hirst in his first few games here this season reminded me of Wood - it takes time for players like that to make a major impact. |  | |  |

Excellent centre half. Terrible left back. |  |

I thought Delaney was dreadful for us. There was no way he was going to go beyond L1 level. Poor player, get rid. Errr wrong. He had a well earned smashing career. |  | |  |

Yes, just as Wood got fit and was looking really effective (he was a big part of our win at Watford for example) Leicester recalled him. |  |

Criminally underrated. Never a left back, but him and McAuley as a pair were as solid as almost anything we've had since. |  |
