Agree with all thatGot to agree about Savile. I posted yesterday that he has gone back to his previous non existent form. Was rubbish today.
Morsy his best game for a long while.
Howson put a shift in and seemed to me to be getting forward a bit more. You can see why he doesnt play more forward after he had that run and was so knackered he only just manged to get his shot away. Still he had a good game.
I'll probably get slated here but I thought Spence was decent today. Had to cover for Fisher when he was dragged about by their player. Plus he looked ok going forward and I think they were worried about him because if you watch game again you will see they were doubling up on him all the time. Especially in the first half.
Fry superb today. Fisher decent debut.
Its also no coincidence that we look a far better team when we keep the ball down. Today and against Forest. We look woeful when we get dragged into a hoofest as we did against Brim and Rotherham. A lot less passing back to keeper today and him hoofing to touch. Long may it continue
Thought akpom did well when he came on also but we badly lack that cut throat edge to us because Norwich were there to be taken down and that was because of Warnocks fabulous tactics prior to the sending off (which was never a sending off)
Bolasie was largely ineffective and that’s being kind but was his first game for a while
