Sheffield Wednesday were brimming with delight following their resounding 4-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle, marking a stellar start to the season.

Having successfully avoided relegation last season, the Owls reinforced their squad with ten impressive signings, five of whom featured in the match against Plymouth. Notable debutants like James Beadle and standout performer Jamal Lowe shone brightly, while the unexpected prowess of Svante Ingelsson left fans in awe.

However, it was Yan Valery who stole the show, earning the Man of the Match accolade from Sky Sports. Valery’s stellar performance, preferred over Pol Valentin, showcased his versatility and impact on both ends of the pitch. Former striker Don Goodman hailed Valery as “absolutely outstanding,” praising his overall contribution to the team.

Valery’s dynamic display saw him dictate play on the right flank, forming effective partnerships with teammates and posing a constant threat to the opposition. His defensive prowess was equally commendable, thwarting Plymouth’s attacks with a solid performance that included crucial interceptions and tackles.

Despite Valentin’s past form, Valery’s standout performance has solidified his place in the starting lineup, proving to be a valuable addition to the team. As Sheffield Wednesday look ahead to their upcoming clash against Hull City in the Carabao Cup, Valery’s impressive showing has undoubtedly secured his position in the team’s defensive setup.
