I think Southampton will take Preston’s place and they will be the top six in no particular order at the end of the season
Something for those not currently starting to look at and be positive about all it takes is an injury and you can cement a place, cirkin and alese have a job on trying to get his shirt for me
Professional job well done, kept them at arms length all night, delighted for our two scorers, confidence breeds good performances at that was one tonight. Don't think many of the lads broke into too much of a sweat, well done all concerned.
I wouldn't like to pick between them, they all offer something different. I think Huggins is the best attacker but less physical, not that he's a pushover.
That's an excellent win tonight, we're in fine form at the minute and there's still room to improve when Ekwah & Cirkin come back, Adil gets up to speed and we get a tune out of a striker. Boro have found a bit of form in there last 4 games and will be difficult to beat, but we've got a good chance of keeping this going.
Not the best performance but also not a bad one Thought the back 4 was solid tonight, motm id give it to huggins for his goal and he was solid throughout. Ballard is just immense and as a few have said o9 compliments him really well Didnt think neil was at his best tonight but he was still good - shows the standard hes been setting this yr. Jobe best game in possession for us, he still needs to improve out of posiiton but what a prospect Thought clarke roberts n ba werent great but they all show moments of real quality Adil really impressed me off the bench, we looked so much better wuth a natural no10 on - gutted he didnt score Think we need to freshen it up on sat, hemir n adil should start for me on sat This team is really learning how to control games, games like that we would have drawn last season but learning when to play at pace n when to slow things down Final point, think we missed pritchard for the 1st 60 mins tonight - adil helped do the stuff that pritchard does n he will be his replacement long term but we missed the wee man tonight
Huggins stand out tonight. Great all round display. Steady away otherwise, didnt have to play well. They were shocking last 15 mins with their challenges. Guarantee their coach is absolutely raging with them. Never mind, on we go, winning is a habit.
Daft given his brief cameo but hemir looked sharper tonight made a couple of runs in behind but wasn’t picked out just generally looked quicker and fitter too
Aye agree with all of that. We did miss Pritchard or Dack to knit things together, not sure when or if Adil will start but I'd like to see him given a chance.
Assuming nobody new is fit for Saturday, and no injuries, I’d go for the same team again but with Aouchiche in for Ba. Harsh on Ba as thought he played well, but think it’s important for our shape that Roberts goes out wide
Id also start hemir, just to freshen it up as think burstow has been good last couple games but fresh legs will be key on sat
Great summary but I feel your a tad harsh.but only because of the standards we are setting. Quite scary to think I disagree as I feel your being too harsh, but can see why you mention it as the standard we expect is now way way higher than past years
Good win Still really not convinced in Burstow. Weak link for me. Think Jobe has a below par game too. Needs to stop the chop , getting that predictable with it. Huggins was class. 09 was also a close second to MOTM.
ive been impressed with Burstow, the stuff he does to hold up and link has been good, just missing a goal
