All things considered I believe it was a good point.
Should’ve been 2-0 at half time but we all know watmore is prone to those types of misses - sadly for him & us.
West Brom won’t be far away this season.
We coped well considering tavs loss. I thought wilder picked the correct two forwards and clearly didn’t want to put pressure on Coburn hence picking akpom ahead of him.
And wilder introduced the two new forwards at just the correct time I thought. It gave us those fresh hungry legs needed to thwart WBs growing confidence.
Caleb bunce is our only midfield turn to though. (!) unless McNair fills in which I think is likely given how short we are but McNair won’t be any where near upto speed having played in defence for so long(different type of fitness)
Obviously fry must come in for bola but will the left side of defence suit fry ? I don’t think so….plus, losing a left footer in there will be a loss to Giles.
Liked lenihan, Jones needs to run at people more. Diksteel was my MOTM. Giles done very well.
Crooks - hmmm. Ok I suppose, if he wants to keep his place he needs to start scoring.
Mcgree, decent considering he’s been playing in a different position pre season. Jury out though as to whether he can be a tav replacement. You won’t get physicality from him though which is big in this league.
Howson is dependable but not for 46+ games at his age.
2or 3 injuries in midfield and we become also ran’s which is a major concern
We need at least two midfielders and a proven forward to stand any chance of competing in the top 7 or 8.
Forss needs to be a goalpoacher because there doesn’t look like much more to his game.
