Really good 3 points there. Wednesday were big and mobile, apart from jimmy Krankie, and we stood up to them well, apart from that tart Piroe. Three - nil did flatter us, but was great for our goal difference. Fantastic strike from Ramazani to put them to bed. Real gritty display, and special mention to Sam Byram. He’s such an under rated influence on this team, and when Solomon disappeared at half time, Byram was in effect playing two positions, left back and left wing. Not bad for a right footer. Big 8 days coming up, COYW.

Cracking win against a tricky opponent and a local derby. Thought Bogle was very good as was Tanaka and Solomon, Ramazanni. Can tell Ampadu is still rusty, some great tackles but out of position a bit and a few loose passes.

Messlier frightens me still... will take time for confidence to come back. I really did think Darlow deserved a shot

Very good 3 points and I did think in that second half they would equalise.
Meslier still flaps at the ball and every set piece I think we are going to concede.
What with that and our inability to score from set pieces is something we need to work on.
Bogle was my MoM.
To not play brilliant and win 3 nil says a lot for the desire to keep going.

Bogle has been a real driving force for us this season. He got some stick early in the campaign but has proved to be one of the first names on the team sheet due to his link up play with James and strong all round displays. Agree with Trebor about Ampadu’s distribution, it wasn’t the best at times yesterday. He only had to make his Hollywood tackle on Windass because he gave the ball away seconds earlier. Let’s hope his decision making and execution improve as he plays more games.

to be fair to meslier the corner early on was flicked on, blatantly, off the hand of a sheff utd player.
not surprisingly the referee missed it.

more surprisingly I'm sure I heard a stat the other day that said we haven't conceded a headed goal from a set piece this season.
although we are shakey and I agree a specialist coach is required
