He may not be prolific in front of goal, but can't help feeling we need Mitovic's ability to hold the ball up. Gayle has been anonymous.
Overall fairly even although they came out quick and we looked in trouble for 15-20 mins we calmed it down a bit and came closest through Richie.
Actually thought Merino came more into the game the longer the half went on. Lascelles causing some worries in our box, Manquillo not exuding confidence and Perez flitting in and out of the game.
I agree with this. Gayle has even looked fairly static. Perez has been doing all the pressing up top. Mitro would have given us more in that half for sure
We look comfortable , well the first 20 mins we looked on edge but once we strung a few passes together we looked better. Merino looks paceless, and seems to have nothing about him whatsoever. Gayle is anonymous but with this guy all it takes is one chance and he will score , he's a typical average striker but I am confident in his goal scoring ability. We will win this game !
