Simple. Because the keeper blocked his shot and it was then nowhere near going in .. until their defender kindly directed it into the back of the net. As someone else said, a lucky boy. On another day, it doesn't fall into the defenders path and we're all saying, ffs he should have finished that, and we maybe don't go on and win and the mood around him is quite different. It was a well timed run, but a poor 'finish'. He works hard, and maybe deserves a bit of luck for that, but he just isn't technically very good. It's to be hoped McBurnie doesn't get injured coz neither Joseph nor Destan are anywhere near good enough to cover for him imo..
Spot on there. Joseph is added to the pantheon of players who work hard and therefore our fanbase think is great. His touch is atrocious and he almost always takes one or two too many. The lad would take two touches to take a penalty.
Slater Amir Crooks he’ll be really good when he gets fully fit again and loses the few pounds he put on during the injury , the other week he was so slow! But looked quicker yesterday
