PAUL Sturrock admitted he took "a big chance" on selecting midfielder Yoann Folly for a first appearance since January.
However, the Togo international was a star among stars as the Pilgrims registered their second away win of the season, beating Middlesbrough 1-0 on their first visit to the Riverside Stadium.
"I've always known there's a footballer in Yoann but he hasn't shown it on a regular occurrence," said Luggy.
"For the last couple of weeks, he's been very much like of old, so that was why I took the chance. I thought he was excellent.
"I thought the freshness was needed and I think he had proved to me over training and in reserve games that he merited the chance.
"It was a big chance to take because he hasn't been involved and we've been trying to move him on, but now he's staked a claim and he'll take it with both hands."
