Decent first half.
Created plenty of chances and should have scored at least twice.
This our best technically gifted team I have seen in some time.
My only criticisms would be the absolutely wank short corners and the negative impact Garner has on Lowe going forward (he brings him inside rather than letting him get the ball in the box)

Both full backs playing deeper tonight. Would like to see Lowe push on a bit.

Yep.

Agreed.
Have we missed Colback for that extra bit of steel in CM?

I think this is down to Garner being in the middle and playing higher up the pitch, it gives Lowe an option, whereas when Colback was playing Lowe had to be more positive.

Wonder if Zinc might be subbed for Lolley shortly. Lolley can take players on and commit them.

Out of position as he has been coming out too far for me.
Worrall who has been immaculate didn’t challenge Martin and wells just ran straight through and hit a saleable shot. Figgs / mckenna didn’t pick up the runner who tapped in.
Several at fault and we have a weakness against the long ball.
Don’t want to be too harsh - could be 2 up
Keep same - shake it up between 65-75 if nothing changes

Ha so I imagined the commentator saying he should've done better did I?

You are watching a different game to me then. Think we have looked very sharp at times, some lovely one touch passing, quick on the break although we are getting caught out at the back same as we were on Saturday, but still unlucky to be behind.

Caught out at the back against Brum too but they couldnt score then. These have but we can still score goals.

I missed first 15 mins but seemed like we looked way more dangerous again going forward. Not sure how we didn't take one of those chances. I'd be confident of scoring 2nd half, wouldn't change anything just yet.
Getting caught out a bit at the back part of the package for playing lots of forward balls and playing a high line. Been worth it overall
