Great point in the end , feared the worst that it wouldn’t be our day when Slater missed another sitter . Credit to Kamara for the equaliser, 99 times out of 100 our players put them in row Z .. miles better than Boro performance it was good to see us compete and attack them and not actually look scared of their league position
If we didn’t need the points I’d be saying that comeback was better than winning. Well done Abu! first half we was decent considering the team, second half I thought they used their game and you could see the difference in the teams. But credit to the lads they dug in and rescued a point but more importantly hopefully they rescued some confidence. Alzate has to be our best signing him and puerta are the best thing about our team. Pedro isn’t far off aswell. not many negatives and I don’t want to jump on Coyle but when we go 2-1 down I want my captain to be vocal and rallying the team, he can even give a bollocking out if he needs to. When we go 3-1 down I’d like him to do it again, instead he just wonders back to his position. I’m not sure he’s the captain you need in this situation. anyway great comeback and I hope the team take a lot from it and the great escape starts here!
Kams does not take a touch in either goal, take a touch= get closed down. In my unprofessional opinion both goals were really well taken, that lad is a very good player and we should feel really lucky he plays for us…. **** everything else !!
Pedro is the first proper striker we’ve had for yonks. I was a bit concerned when we signed him as he was brilliant in Serie A then went to Turkey and Brazil and was absolutely useless, mixed in with a few mental issues I think. Since the change of manager he’s been absolutely brilliant. Long may it continue.
Agree. Particularly when the danger for their second came from his side and he's sat flat on his backside. It was a great game today and I'm beyond happy with that point. That said, we looked defensively vulnerable in both fullback positions - both of them often in no man's land between players/balls. The back two were solid though - great performances there. The centre of our midfield is really starting to click together - the three of them run endlessly, closing whatever they can down and trying to get us to turn and attack. They run their backsides off. Surely Slater scores one of those before the end of the season? Pedro is really getting into this league. I love how he's starting to bully the players around him and force us forward. As his fitness improves, so is he. Loved Selles having a go at their player first half for their little scuffle when the ball went out of play. He's up for a scrap!
When the ball gets dropped, literally every player stood and froze except pedro…proper strikers almost feel the mistake coming and are in a position to profit
