The St Michael\u2019s man was outstanding in Sunday\u2019s win, scoring 0-6 and dominating around the middle with his usual blend of aerial ability and attacking threat.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Since making his inter-county debut in 2017, he has built an impressive CV, four Ulster titles, an All-Star, and a growing reputation as one of the most complete midfielders in the game. His ability to field kickouts, break forward, and land scores from distance has made him a constant outlet for Donegal.<\/p>\n Marc \u00d3 S\u00e9 Says Donegal Star Is A \u2018Marked Man\u2019 After League Final Display<\/p>\n And after this latest display, Marc \u00d3 S\u00e9 believes opposition teams will have little choice but to give him special attention.<\/p>\n If you look at last year\u2019s final, you could say Donegal were probably unlucky in that Thompson got injured after 20 minutes.<\/p>\n But that said, he was awesome today.<\/p>\n We\u2019re talking about Michael Murphy now being a marked man, I think in the championship going forward Michael Langan is going to be a marked man after yesterday\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n Everybody\u2019s going to have to nullify his threat.<\/p>\n For years, Michael Murphy has been the player opposition defences have built their plans around.<\/p>\n Now, it appears Donegal may have another towering Michael that needs to be taken care of.<\/p>\n If teams are forced to divide their attention between Murphy, Langan and Donegal’s other potent attackers, it only increases the attacking options available to Donegal, and makes them an even more dangerous proposition heading into the championship.<\/p>\n SEE ALSO: Gaelic Football Power Rankings: Ranking The Sam Maguire Field<\/a><\/p>\n
