Played well for 60 mins then unnecessarily sloppy at the end to make it a little twitchy.

Now let's smash Barcahampton on Sunday.

Guessand, I really hope it’s confidence, but at the moment he doesn’t appear to have anything except he works hard.

Which makes him one better than Sancho

It doesn’t. Sancho tried to do something attacking.

He did but to my eye at least, achieved absolutely nothing.

I don’t think either have offered anything all season. Including against some really poor teams.

We won that game by a big toe when we should have won it by at least six goals.

Goal difference could be important in reaching top 8 and this was our best chance.

A win is a win but flustrating to watch.

We definitely need more from Sancho but he's a much bigger threat than Guessand. More chance i'd score or assist than him and i'm at home.

Well we would have done had Malen stayed on.

I want to distance myself from any suggestion that I was praising Guessand. I just wanted to shine a light on Sancho’s lack of effort off the ball.

Apparently the YBs fans hit Malen with a Toblerone. Those jagged edges are dangerous. Pricks.

At least it wasn't an alphorn.

Sancho was alright imo, far better than Guessand.

Aye, Guessand again did very little and looked afraid to shoot.

That was much harder than it should have been, apart from Ollie's effort, can't remember us really testing their goalie second half, but an important 3 points. Instead of Ollie I would play The Don upfront on Sunday.

I thought we looked comfortable for the the first 80 minutes without getting out of first gear, also using a lot of squad players getting valuale playing time.

Points in the bag, job done.

You must agree though surely. Can't keep starting Watkins when Malen is playing like this.

Excellent first half. Not as good second half but we did enough to win the game.  A bit concerning that the subs didn’t step up.
