Great 3 points. It was pretty mediocre stuff and we haven't been at our best for a good few weeks now but winning ugly is a good habit. Winsawin.
Brilliant/Incredible well done lads, an all-round great performance, Defence was sealed tighter than a scotsmans wallet.
Made harder work of that than we should have done, but we got the points and that's all that matters. And the table makes for fine viewing!
I think of the subs only James made any impression. I don't remember Antony being mentioned, Joseph didn't chase down like he normally does and Piroe was far too deep. I think James and Gnonto should get a start.
Player Ratings. Meslier - 7. Clean sheet. Good with his feet. Couple of hesitations coming out of his 6 yard box and a bit flappy at times. Still makes me a bit nervous with his decision making. Gray - 8. Solid defensively and good feet getting him out of a few sticky situations. A couple of top class passes too. Rodon - 8. Nothing else to say apart from a must signing this summer. Ampadu - 9. Same as Rodon. Signing of the season for me. Firpo - 8. No defensive work to do really and offered good support going forward. Laid a golden chance for Rutter who fluffed his lines. Gruev - 8. Gets through some graft and just makes the game as simple as possible. Only worry is his lack of pace. Kamara - 7. Broke up play well and offered nuisance value all game. A little too conservative with his passing at times and looked tired as the game wore on. Rutter - 8. A bit scrappy but as usual got his assists. That's 15 for the season now. Missed a glorious chance at 1-0. If only the boy could finish... Summerville - 7. Pace and trickery caused constant issues for the Millwall defence. It's just not quite happening for him at the moment but his performances are getting better recently. Gnonto - 8. Fantastic run and finish for the goal. Nearly saw red for a silly confrontation with Cooper 1st half. Worked hard but most of our attacks came down the other flank. Bamford - 7. Some nice touches but on the whole well marshalled by Cooper and Tanganga. His runs made space for others, particularly for Gnontos goal. Subs. James - 8. Nightmare for a defence seeing Dan come on. Got another goal and hit the post. Anthony - 6. Came on and saw the game out. Roberts, Joseph, Piroe - n/a. Injury time subs
buzzin we top of the league but there's still so much to do. Its great viewing though and even though they have a game in hand that 17 point gap has been closed. crazy we are on 82 points with 8 games to go and we could still could finish 4th.
Just hope those who are currently playing their trade elsewhere look at the table and **** OFF permanently the lot of them....stay well away you ...
Had the in-laws round today so missed the game unfortunately (been nipping on here to keep up to date). Have Sky+ it so will watch whilst having a few beers later. Sounds like a good win as yet again we’re on the end of another shocking refereeing performance. Beginning to wonder if there’s an agenda.
Another victory and a clean sheet. The ref was shocking, why he didn't give a pen I'll never know. Our set pieces are awful, 13 corners and never even threatened the goal. Every free kick we get in their half, we pass it back to our defenders. Why? Still, I suppose Farke knows what he's doing, we ARE top of the table!!!
