It's one of the small but vital improvements I've seen. Small steady progress , on and off the field.

Well positioned to deal with it with his pace and he did just that He did exactly what he would be expected to do. Good stuff. I’ll call it solid defending I think Edited October 6, 2021 by Davefevs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree I would expect him to do what he did there, but some wingers get that wrong. A basic skill of a footballer well below professional levels. Yes, of course some don’t do it, but lauding it (not you btw) as anything more than “standard / solid” is way OTT. There are basic things you just expect them to do, irrespective of who is doing it. More worrying is Bakinson, who doesn’t do these things. I suspect Nige won’t give him too many more chances. Massengo’s injury and King and Williams not being quite ready, gave him a chance. He did “okay”, but I think he blew his chance in reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
