We missed a chance ourselves, but yes, we've been fortunate it has to be noted. |  |

I don’t agree with that, bar that stupid pass, he’s had some good runs. Evans has been anonymous. |  | |  |

Harsh. He's making runs, looking to make cutting passes, putting himself about... He's busy and is likely to make mistakes. Playing at pace is great but can't help but feel every now and then we could slow things down and take stock occasionally. |  |

Yep. You can now see that their press is a bit less intense. We've suddenly got space to play in. [Post edited 16 Aug 2022 20:25]

His touch has been very loose and cause a number of turnovers in possession. He's getting very involved though so hopefully something comes off for him soon. |  | |  |

The back pass was a moment to forget, I'll give you. But I like his industry generally. I don't think this is the sort of game that he's naturally going to excel in, but overall I don't think he's having a stinker. |  | |  |

Him and Aluko have been a real problem for us tbh. Both really untidy, which is surprising for Aluko. |  |

I think Aluko has struggled with the pace, which is not surprising, but surely they can't keep it up all game. |  | |  |

But we can't rely on breaking teams down by resilience alone. It's great having this level of fitness and pace in the side but I'd like to see another dimension to our game too. |  |

Especially if it opens up a bit last 20 mins.... If we can nick it 1-0 , it'll be a good result.. But it's grating my teeth a little. Sort of game a fit Dom Ball would be handy.
