He was class today but gave all the credit to defence and 2 Centre mids. I feel the Wycombes energy in 2nd half especially when the big lad came on was in danger of over running us has been underestimated.
I think its dangerous to be disparaging about the "smaller" clubs. Wycombe looked dangerous and energetic going forward but a bit suspect at the back.
Shout out for Colback today, looked like the player we had on loan.
Really good team performance.
I was thinking during the first half with both Taylor and Guerrero playing so well together that we haven't seen that type of fluidity up front for quite a few seasons!
What was some on here saying a couple of weeks ago about putting 4-4-2 to bed once and for all?
Thd thing is that Guerrero moved alot. Hd wasn't just up there waiting for the ball, hd was more of a 10 ... even Taylor, he helped even at corners...the dilemma now is... what are we going to do with Grabban? ... we cannot just change thd team to accommodate him. Today, in my opinion, CH made a mistake when he replace Ameobi... if he wanted to bring in Lolley, Knockhart was the one to give way nof Ameobi...nof fair on the later...that's hos you destroy the confidence of a player...
An old fashioned 10 maybe, but certainly not the new style boll@cks lazy ar$ed "play maker" number 10. He was playing in a front 2, but was doing what all good centre forwards should do. Coming short sometimes, making runs down the line, running the channels occasionally, getting in the box and not giving defenders any peace.
As for accommodating Grabban, what a great problem for the manager to have.
We won 2-0 so wont be nit picking "making a mistake". Sami Ami looks pretty confident to me every time he gets the ball- I doubt a breather will dent this. He's in the most consistent form of his career over the last 15 months according to him. We all thought he would be a back up to Albert and Lolley when we signed him, but he has earned his 1st XI slot. I wouldn't worry about his confidence from getting a 20 odd minute breather or whatever it was. Trust in Hughton and we will go up, not necessarily this season, but we will.
