Just one of those games where you can be smug about how great things are going and single out any player for specific praise. Neil, Huggins, O'Nien, Clarke, Hume, Jobe etc. All immaculate. I know Wednesday were ****e but they didn't gift us any goals we earned all of them and were at their throats from kick off.
Just that he and the defence didn't do their job well enough when we conceded. Not often you hear honesty from a player
for me he’s captain now. Don’t think Evans ever plays for us again. And he’s earned his starting centre back place. I’m going to stop saying “on merit” now because that implies he’s not good enough to be assured it but is in good form. It’s more than that now. He’s only not our best centre back because Ballard is the best in the division.
Special mention to Patto. He isnt a spectacular keeper but that's because his positioning is so good. No thrills, no Hollywood saves just solid
Just needs to improve his kicking, a few really sloppy passes from him but he does his main job well which is keeping the ball out of the net
I think he's got exactly the mindset that makes a top class keeper - concentration. Easy to look brilliant when you're getting peppered all game.
As with all these lads he just gives you confidence he will do his job and make the saves. He's going to be a hell of a keeper
I think it'll always be a weakness but if a keeper has to have one, and most do, that's the one I'd pick. I didn't notice it being too bad tonight but yeah it's the main thing he needs to improve on. Rock solid at everything else and pulls off amazing saves when required.
Imagine having a chairman like this.... https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/foot...n=continue_reading_button#amp-readmore-target
Had half a red followed by a fair few Staropramen... off outside to light a cigar with a nice malt. Enjoy one and all, hopefully speak tomorrow x
Good to hear Mowbray telling them he wasn't happy about not being more ruthless. Thought we coasted once the 3rd went in and never really pushed too hard for a 4th.
Thought the statistical ratings from tonight might be interesting. Burstow scored very high considering he didn't score or assist and I'd say that was accurate he played very well.
I'd go with that. Burstow grafted his arse off and got kicked to get us up the pitch. Not the glory of scoring but still a CF performance. Well done young man.
Burstow did assist apparently. The second goal cross field pass, I thought was Jobe but was apparently him.
We got the job done. You always felt an early goal could turn it toxic and to get two as fast as we did pretty much sealed it. Managed the game well after and conserved ourselves for Watford. Sheff Wed? Wow, you have to feel for them turning up to see that. We know cause we've been there but they showed absolutely nothing at all first half. They did muster a couple of efforts once the game had gone but if they continue to play like that they're going down and they're not getting many points at all.
