Really enjoyed yesterday's performance. Probably more than against Sheff Utd. First time we've put together an even better performance on the back of a good one. Thought we controlled a good 60 minutes of that game, surprised that the stats had us fairly equal, and really the only difference being we took our chances.
There's definitely an element of keeping feet firmly on the ground and not getting too carried away. We were really gifted a third that killed the game yesterday. Big O and Flo make such a difference in the middle, they bring out the best in everyone, but we know their physical frailties. Baka was the only disappointment for me yesterday, not much intelligent running, was impressed that Whitney seemed to agree with his earlier than usual substitution.
Not going to jump on the bandwagon that our new loan centre-back being a world beater, had a fantastic first half, but has to share some of the blame for conceding too, Taylor did him completely.
Let's see how we do at a resurgent Bury next week. C+, and I really like the fact Whitney has vanished from the pre-match warm up. Finally hope he's letting the coaches coach, while he examines opposition team sheet, likely subs, Racing Post form etc...
