He's back to MVP form he had in our last promotion push. Got a good finish, but was generally everywhere, breaking things up and getting us moving. He allows Charles/Jander/Bragg to get the best out of their games, not to mention protecting our back four.

With game time, and support and instructions from others, he's improving. He's bulked up a bit and had a bit of bite to go with his industry against Wrexham. While Bree supports him, he's able to track and attack elsewhere. Not in the way Fellows would. But then, Matsuki looks to be very useful centrally, and from corners.

Nutcracker

A shame Downs is off on loan. With the injury to Derby's Agyemang, we could have had USA, USA's number 1099, USA's number 1099. 🙂

That was a sentence I was happy to see end as it did. 🙂

Sounds like Pakistan are offering Trump a massive off ramp, to delay whatever was going through his head for later tonight. And... Trump agrees to two-week ceasefire if Iran opens Strait of Hormuz. Hopefully. Iran will also take this massive opportunity.

Will Still will get better. He's playing with Tonda's tactics on FM26.

I thought we'd do well when I saw Tonda smile politely at Parkinson, before kick off. That smile vanished in a moment, replaced by the terrifying expression of a hungry eyed coach.

Statement performance after statement performance. Tonda's approach to his squad gives us match ready strength in depth. That was a real team display. The rough bits that some players have, supported and covered by others, allowing strengths to shine through. Manning and Bree did so many good things supporting Matsuki and Edozie. Edozie is attack minded, while Matsuki was being asked to work in a lot of areas (which is one reason he gets a nod over the also good Fellows) Not or being able to get 90 minutes from either Larin or Stewart ends up working well, while they're both fit. Larin was a busy, focal point. Not everything worked, but a real outlet most of the time. He grew into the game. Stewart just looks sharp up front. Always a threat. Stephens was quietly getting on with things, allowing THB to stand out. Likewise Flynn was excellent, allowing Charles good moments in space. Everyone supporting each other's play. A great result in a crunch fixture. A league position, I didn't think we'd see.

Wood has done really well since coming on.

Nearly Leo. Nice work from...Archer! Everyone having their moments today.

Lovely header by cool Charles. Azaz has had yet another game of doing a load of link up work.

Good heavens. Goal fest! So up for it.

After all he's gone through, so good to see his time managed, injury free and able to be as sharp.

The extra long neck of the Loch Ness Drogba works magic once again!
