Positives
1) Considering we had a number of players who hadn’t played for a few weeks or even months I thought we did generally well. It was great to see 4 players back who’d been out recently either in the side or on the bench. All looked like they came through the game unscathed.
2). Vestergaard was brilliant. Great blocks, physical and can pass
3). Jonny. Thank goodness he’s back. Total class.
4). Cags. Considering how’s he’s performed recently he was 100% better today against a much better side than West Ham or Norwich. But he needs his big brother Jonny with him or his now best mate Jannik. Playing with Amartey spooks him.
5). Both Nacho and Lookman looked good when they came on. Caused problems and with a little luck could both have scored.
Negatives
1). Maddison has had his chance. Nacho did more in 20 mins than he’s done in the last few months. We can’t keep blaming his injury. He’s lost whatever he had. Compared with Grealish he was embarrassing.
2). Barnes isn’t firing yet. Again today when pressed he looked poor. But I’m sure it’s a short term problem.
3). Albrighton has had his day when he plays against quality opponents like today. Not for 90 mins anyway.
All in all not bad. We defended damn well at times and when they all get up to speed I’m sure we’ll do more than ok
