who's everyone's MOTM?
How did we set up? Looked like 4 at back but what about rest of side? Worked a treat whatever it was.

Didn’t put a foot wrong and I’m normally one of his biggest critics.It was an entire team transformed and playing for the manager once again as well as each other. Olowu was a man transformed, so composed, passing the ball immaculately. Perhaps he does play better without Anderson beside him. Close had the opportunity to show why some people think he is so good, but he did not engage as much as he might have done and played it safe most of the time. In contrast, Biggins involved himself a lot, but made some bad decisions and it was apparent that being on the ball and sustained attacking was something most of the players weren’t used to and perhaps they don’t know what to expect from each other. The team-player of the match for Rovers was Ironside, always working hard, and never selfish.
Ollie Younger....forgotten man!Is he fit yet, and worth a deal until the end of the season to prove his fitness?Olowu with Younger is a better pairing than with Anderson/Wood IMO.

The performance of the season for me. God knows where it came from.The thing now is consistency. The lads know now they've got it in them, which in itself should boost their confidence.Everyone was much braver on the ball tonight, and please, GM, stick to a back 4 for the remaining games.
It's a funny one with Hurst. Probably our best player last night but he's not done anything much since he returned from injury. I suspect McCann wanted a more physical presence hence Kuleya came on.I also agree on Biggins. Let's be honest his passing is poor for this level but he ran his socks off and I'll never criticise that. Very unlucky not to score aswell. I thought we looked way better when Rowe moved further left, he had a decent game last night.Please stick with 4-3-3
