Organised to a tee today again! Super super fit and I know WBA played Monday and Thursday but our squad is so threadbare we can’t bring on Okay Yosulu a quality player like him. International with turkey, Reach Robinson all solid CL players.
Kaminski 7 Couldn’t do out about the goal, went do with his knee did he get caught? What’s the tape on his neck about?
Britain 6 Got to close to Grady who spun him a few times but was dogid got back and generally okay!
Ayala 8 colossus. Be a top half PL defender if he was fit. He’s the most unspanish then Spanish player at times he’s gotno problem being a JDT centre half, in fact his calmness today and his constant chilling of Buckley and Phillips was awesome.
Phillips 7 shaky hot potato first half and didn’t want the ball but second half 3 instances in 50/56 mins he was a total warrior. Went off with cramp.
Pickering 6 played better at CH, clearly targeted needs to stop those crosses coming in tbh.
(Edun) 6 we looked better down there when he came on, can we teach him to throw though?
Buckley 6 a bit bypassed and the thug Livermore had left one on him early but he’s not a rb but stuck to his task. Not sure why he got a yellow?
Travis 8 was everywhere! Totally on another level under JDT.
Hedges 7 every blade covered he’s tenchically on another level too. He finds space in the tightest of areas.
Gallagher 7 worked relentellesly I was worried he got the card early but no he again covered and covered and a goal which was a fantastic finish.
BBD 7 goal and assist he’s have an 8 but he didn’t fancy 3 challenges in the first half.
Smozdics 6 Plenty of running but didn’t always find the right player with the ball.
Dolan 6 always running he relieved allot of pressure in the end.
Morton 7 watch that ball to bbd, plenty of scouse attitude too! Hell get a few cards him, needs to build up but a great performance.
JDT 9
My MOTM was Ayala coached everyone around him today at various parts of the game. It was probably travis on performance but Ayala gets it for me as bad a lucky deflection we’d have had a clean sheet too.

Nah he was shaky first half but second half a proper player. Seems to like the gritty side of the game tbh. Decent performance in the end from the young man.

17 years and two weeks old remember. He bossed their centre half in the first half. Still you’re entitled to your own opinion. We aren’t that rubbish website after all.
We are top of the league apparently after winning our first three games for the first time since 1988. I’m not going to discuss how that season ended.

I know what your saying but it reminded me when I was his age oh gosh that makes me sound old now! It’s the keeping things simple and being wide deep which got at me because you do that to not want the ball. When he blocked and barged grant in 50 mins in the second half he looked a total different player, as I say some players need a good touch early to settle them down this lad likes the gritty side so it’s probably a tackle or something for him! Good debut and here’s to more to come! Well done AP

What a fantastic, gutsy performance
Ayala did enough to be MOM on Weds as well (even if he doesnt play) - another tactical MOM decision?
Clowns near me moaning about miss placed passes!! They just did 100mins in a furnace - I was knackered just watching
It does highlight the crazy idea of a world cup in Qatar - Money talks

Another brilliant win against by far and away the best side we've played so far this season. I'm full of optimism and actually think we'll get even better as the season goes on, this is no flash in the pan, we're gonna be a team others want to avoid this season.
On one hand I was disappointed with the turn out (thought they'd bring more as well) but felt the atmosphere in the Blackburn End was better today with some of the bores in the middle joining in, it makes a big difference to just the small section in N01 singing.
Lets hope the word spreads and the crowds creep up BUT anyone going down, don't sit there in silence, contribute to the atmosphere, it's the least this young team deserves.

great win and very good team performance.
Can't believe Dunnfc is saying Ash Phillips had a shaky first half cos that was completely and utter wrong. He was solid as a rock. It was right in front of my seat in BBE.
Every player got at least 8 with Diaz, Phillips, Ayala and Travis getting a 9 in my opinion.
Onwards and upwards. 3 games 3 wins under JDT playing to a tactical plan and they understand what he wants them to do

He did have a shaky first half. He launched the ball out of play twice as he couldt control the ball properly.
Chaddyrovers
Senior Member
no he didn't. His first half performance was right in front of where I sit in BBE. I watched everything.
Where were you sit?

You clearly weren’t watching when he miscontrolled the ball and struggled to keep it in and it went for a throw or the corner then.

notice you dodge the question on where you sat wonder why you did that?
I was watching everything as I always do. I never miss a minute of the game every home league games

I was at home over 200 miles away having hosted family over in the UK at mine for the last week. No doubt il see you at reading though on Wednesday super fan?
If your sat in the goals end of a ground you have a limited view of the pitch which maybe why your mistaken.
