Emile was offside there I think, but should have scored.

I'm 'enjoying' this so far. Big hopes for Herd and Weimann

Big Emile is looking fit and is playing quite well. Think his presence can help Andy.

It occurs to me that under MON, the team were always absolutely knackered, especially late on in the season, but we had very few injuries. Since last season, the squad has been decimated a good portion of the time...

He was clearly onside, as a player was jogging back from the byline keeping him on by at least a yard.

He was just off side. He will spring it at least once at this rate

What's been noticeable so far is how good a job Bogdan does of covering behind his defence, very quick to come out if the pass is long, it means their defence can play a higher line.  Given doesn't do this for us so we end up dropping deeper.

Their high line is almost suicidal.

Andi lives on that last shoulder, doesn't he? He's gonna get through soon.

I dont know why, but Bolton have done this against us at VP every year for at least the last five years, and it never works.
