All the attack has been anonymous. They closed out the spaces and pushed us more.

More like we didnt bother attacking or both holding onto thw ball better. Inviting constant pressure on ourselves

One of those sliding door moments. If that shot goes in ( he couldn’t have done more , it was just a worldie save ) he’s a hero and goes on to have a great game.

It doesn’t , he’s not great and maybe could have been sent off


But a player in there definitely. He should always come on ahead of Zaniolo.


To be fair , I should come on ahead of zaniolo

I thought Unai made exactly the right call in taking Rogers off.  He was blowing out of his arse and clearly not giving us enough cover defensively.  He did a couple of good things going forward and will learn with Unai coaching him. He did ok overall.

Quite promising in the first half, and only a very good save stopped him scoring. He's a bit of a lump though, and doesn't look especially fit at the moment.

He was one more foul away from a red too, it was the right call to get him off before the referee was given another excuse to give a decision against us.

Absolutely the right call, as we couldn't afford to go down to ten men and he was walking that tightrope.  Thought he looked promising on the ball, but struggled defensively in the second half.

Lot of learning for the lad to do when he doesn't have the ball. He was totally MIA down the left that 2nd half

He has the makings of a top player but is not fit enough yet.

His attitude appears first rate . This exposure he's getting will be great for him.

Clearly has ability and technique. Not as fit as he should be at this level and hasn’t quite grasped the level of demanding in positioning and working. He will come good as there is a player there.

As others have said looked decent going forward, and the strike that forced the great save from their keeper was technically very good. Clearly needs to work on his game more widely, particularly in terms of effectiveness when tracking back, but the effort was there. Definitely plenty of potential.

Good cross field pass for Bailey (I think) in one of the attacks when he picked it up deep.

Can see why we signed him as he is a different type of player to bailey diabs and JPB whoch are all similar players

Has massove potential.  Can see us seeing best of him from the summer once a proper pre season

Carrying a bit of timber or just not that quick?
