Just a small word for Heskey's crucial part in the build up to that goal, great control and reverse pass to put Albrighton in.

Those away goals are so, so valuable.

I think we had a discussion on here last season or the one before. With a 1-0 away win an away goal is not worth anything.

Not sure about this line-up.

Hogg, who as far as I'm aware hasn't been near the first team before.
A rookie at the back in  Lichaj, Beye in the centre and Heskey up top -never good.

Albrighton looks well up for it though, and I'm gad Bannan is getting a run-out.
It's positive that we'd pick a player like him in the position he currently occupies.
Slight of frame, but a canny footballer.

A wee bit concerned at that defence though.

Not looking good defensively from corners.

Looking a bit dozy in defence. Need some concentration in there.

We are actually playing to feet and looking like a decent passing team all of a sudden. Albrighton has been brilliant again thus far and Emile looks a much better player now we have stopped hoofing it up to him.

Saying that they should have just equalised.

So how do you pronounce Lichaj, then? Is it (as I thought) 'Lee-high', or as the commentator on ITV is saying 'Lee-chai'?

So all 4 goals so far this season, Albrighton has been deeply involved in.

Heskey is putting himself about a bit.
