Really enjoyed that second half, whatever the result. Should have scored at least two.

I thought the 2 centre backs, Bannan in spells (tho he still tried too many hollywood balls) and Johnson all looked really good for the most part. But Carruthers looked really, really good to me. And the passing quality in the second half was really good, albeit with more space as players tired

Gardner looked pretty off the pace I thought. I hope that's not a typical performance

I thought that Will Keane was meant to be a player for them, but he looked absolute Blues!

For what little he's had to do tonight, Siegrist looks excellent.

Agreed. I was underwhelmed initially, but pretty excited at the second half performance. Thought we looked really good.

I thought Gardner was just playing the disciplined role and letting the others drift around more, as a unit the midfield looked really good.

Confident pen from BB.
