A good start to the second half.

[AsTallAsLions]

Yeah we've been much better

[Mister E]

Bjarnasson on for Whelan.

A good move if they use him as he’s meant to be as a more attacking midfielder. Not so sure if takes Whelan’s role.

Weren't people saying how good he was in the first half, last week; as a holding MF? (I didn't think he played well last week, but some on here thought he did alright in the first half).

Bugger. Stream crashed

Unbugger. It's back

It looks to me to be a massive pitch with loads of space.

Or are the players really small?

[john e]

better
it’s because we have our international superstar on
he’s going to the world cup you know

[AsTallAsLions]

In terms of our passing it's like watching a different team out there right now. Funny that when Whelan's not anchoring the midfield, everyone else settles.

[Martyn Smith]

Sub has given us a more attacking slant

He came on against Bristol City in what I consider his best position as a left sided central midfielder. He makes a lot of very good runs and scored from a great through ball by Hutton. Can’t comment on how he did vs Peterborough.

Thx. I'm not a fan of his, TBH.

Decent attempt Hogan

I thought he did okay in the Cup. Put himself about.
