I think we still really need a #6 to break up opposition attacks.
I'm happy with things so far, but we've always been lucky at times this year.
We are still giving up a lot of chances according to xG. We will revert to the mean at some point. We need to learn to be more compact and limit opposition chances. I think a #6 is the priority.
Overall I thought we played really well against the #1 team in the league. Shane O'Neil is quickly becoming my fave CB, and this group of energetic youngsters is really refreshing.
As I mentioned after last game, we seem to be on a positive, upward trajectory.
I wasn't anticipating this, at this point of the season. Pleasantly surprised!
Totally agree. Got to be a good one in Poland that BB's "guy" can direct us to.Quote:

Really happy to see Mavinga on there, it's no secret that he's had a tough go, but you've got to love when good things happen to good people who work hard. Hopefully this is the beginning of the "rebirth".
Gotta give Bob massive props. Doesn't matter who you are, if you have a good game he puts you again. And if you have a bad one you get dropped to the back of the line and wait your turn. He's done this a few times. Motivates everyone for their shot and punishes the guys who make silly avoidable mistakes.
Wow what a win. Bob doing wonders with what can only be described as a half-built squad. Getting wins like this one is a sign of teams that are well coached.
