Defending well so far.

 

Or Canavan or Anthony O'Connor aside from that poor cross just now and a slight error in the first half.

 

Sutton’s agent needs to get him sponsorship with Duracell or Red Bull. Unbelievable stamina.

 

we are quite good

 

We're calm under pressure and sloppy under 0 pressure

 

If that lad who headed the ball had left it then the ball lad behind could probably have scored with his header. Lucky there. We've not done well closing this out.

 

It'll do.

 

Get in!!

 

And Mansfield didn't have a shot on target.

 

oh!

 

The difference Rowe and Cook have made has been incredible.

Yes, the defence has been a bit of a brick wall for a lot of our opponents, BUT, a lot of these games could have gone either way. With those two scoring game after game, we're asking all the questions of our opponents rather than it being the other way round.

 

He did according to comms

 

Correct Dave

I’ve said similar

 

They were like me........Toothless up front. If the midfield , whilst strangling the game , cannot finish, you end up with your Orient, Walsall’s and Mansfield type games.

Be honest all three teams were poor up top and offered zero.

 

You are right but it's hard to be composed on the ball when teams are pressing you like Mansfield did tonight, that's the respect teams are showing us now at Valley Parade.

 

The amazing thing is that we've now got the luxury of two prolific strikers who are battling it out to start a game before the other. When was the last time that happened at VP? Three goals each so far - game most truly on! Jeez, I am loving this.

 

I think its harsh to say 'no shots on goal' when they smacked one off the post. Yes I understand why its classed as off target but that is the narrowest of margins
Compare that with two fairly tame Rowe free kicks that their keeper had covered which are classed as 'on target'
