Not for the first time since LJ has arrived it was great to see all 3 subs come on and make a positive impact. I thought Pearce slotted in really well and looked comfortable on the ball and Ayling reinforced my belief that he is every bit as good as Matthews.
Admittedly it looked like 2 of the subs were forced on him but he showed again with the substitution of Reid for Kodjia that he has a real knowledge of tactics and how do get something out of the team, myself and most the people around me were questioning why he took off Reid, who I thought was looking quite lively, instead of the ineffective Wilbraham, well we all found out pretty soon after.
