When i saw that team, i must admit i thought 'oh ****'. It's a strange game, Mannone was class, the 2 new lads at the back also did well. Ki i thought was excellent in the 1st half..

Johnson on the bench didn't get on, Gardner not in the squad, maybe some clues there.

The puzzling one is Giach, i'm still at a loss with him. Catts back as captain, should he keep it?
 
Gus has solved or repaired the defensive frailties and now needs to address the attacking failings which I am sure he will.

Our clean sheets are something to be very chuffed about and coupled with a few of our rivals leaking lots of goals, our once poor GD is beginning to look a whole lot better too in comparison to those rivals.
