Max Effort, Says Guy
15th April 2013
ARGYLE centre-back Guy Branston enjoyed playing alongside Max Blanchard when the Pilgrims faced Burton at the weekend.
Despite being a Pilgrim since January, Brano had not yet played alongside Max in the central of defence until Saturday afternoon.The pair kept one of the division’s top scoring sides at bay until a heartbreaking late, late Burton winner.
“I’ve had so many partners since I’ve been here, it’s mind boggling!” said Brano.
“I’ve got a lot of time for Max. He is a great lad anyway. He wants to play centre-half and is an out and out centre-half in his head. He wants to be there all the time.
“[He is] somebody who is willing to stick his head in, but also willing to get the ball down calmly when he can.
“You need that – I need that alongside me, as well. I need somebody who can get the ball down and start bopping it about because I’m more blood and thunder and he is a much calmer player.
“It was nice to play with him, it was really enjoyable.”
