Payero starts - in his favoured position

I'm sure he gets plenty of encouragement adi. One thing I took from the post-match presser which I've just watched was that his partner has come over this week, which can only be good news.

I did notice him waving enthusiastically to the upper west stand prior to the game. So looks like he is settling in.

Agreed but why the need to point out his individual failings/errors? Plenty of other players made far worse errors but nothing was said.

I think when people are not altogether happy with the manager they can read more into every little phrase. I didn't see it as a direct criticism, just Warnock telling it as he sees it.

He looked like he was playing a bit further forward in the 2nd half. Still poor.. but not the car crash of the first half. Mad how different folks see the game/players differently. The guy who sits behind me was kicking off about Tavernier!! Saying he was crap?!?!

Tav was poor to be fair, flatters to deceive, his corners are very poor, we need to see a lot more from him.
 
Tav and Payero were decent first half but they were both much better after they moved inside. Before then, you could see them both getting stuck out wide with restricted options. The move inside and Jones coming on allowed them to turn and see what was available across the whole pitch.

Payero is close to being a dominant creative midfielder I think. He just needs to impose himself on games a bit more and I think that will come with games and confidence. Sooner or later he will smash one in the top corner. I’d be putting him on all of our free kicks because his delivery is far better than Tav’s.
