Fantastic first half. Almost Faultless.

Stevens is explosive. Payne so influential in the pockets. Caddis a real driving force. Both CBs getting fitter and stronger, and we even scored from a corner. Bit quieter down the left side but J Smith threatening in spurts.

Their goal's annoying though. Good finish out of nothing.

All positives against a pretty competitive Burton side. They're full of running, if not quality.
Agree pretty much with all of that, Burton look eager to run but lacking quality, certainly in comparison to our side.

We look very good against a decent League 1 side, if we can sustain this in the second half, sets down a marker

Well that was fun.  Burton have eaten their Wheatabix but have created a very open frenetic and unstructured game as a result, which has been behind our chances.  We are not several goals better than then, yet we could have had a couple more vs them only really having one other good chance.

Matt Smith is gorgeous.  I will do another Alzate here, that lad will have a good Premier League career.  There is a touch of Moncur about him but he probably sits a bit deeper.  He just wants the ball so he can play a touch perfect pass all the time but isn’t afraid to do some of the dirty work either.

Cracking game to watch, and great teamwork by us against quite a good side.

Those stats also have us winning 100% of aerial duels, which you'd not have put money on beforehand.

64.7% of stats are deeply unreliable though.  Hmmm

I think Kovar has been struggling kicking with the windy conditions today a bit.

What Caddis lacks in pace, he makes up for in positioning and timing.
