McCourt my man of the match so far, Twine doing well as is Anderson, Bayo and Knoyle.

Nobody playing badly but Alzate has not been anywhere near his best yet.

Town defending in numbers and doing it quite well. Playing some good football too.

1000% better than last week so far.

Not a bad half that.  Played some good stuff and lot more crosses coming in today.  Still think the midfield looks weak defensively down the middle, but Vale haven't really been good enough to trouble us.  Much better from Iandolo and his crossing is a real threat, much more pace on the delivery.  Adebayo has even looked good and Twine is handful.  He must be our best forward at holding possession and gaining free kicks.

Totally different to lat weekend, hopefully the boss has learned quickly.

Good half. Could be 2 or 3 up if Anderson could shoot. McCourts best game in an stfc shirt.

Vale look like we do at home. Nervy, no real  attacking threat and the natives restless

I suppose when most of the attack are playing well, someone goes unnoticed. At least these should be the only issues we are looking at. I'd say Anderson, for all his huff and puff just is not a goalscorer - he's effectively an out and out winger (whatever that is in football today), he can turn himself into a great provider though. This could allow Alzate the space to shoot on site with Bayo/Twine tapping in the scraps.

Defence, as you say seems strong enough. I take it back - I thought this midfield would be shaky. This is great (if continued) as creates more competition. Great option in Doughty from the bench.

We say with caution though...this is STFC  Wink

Not being negative but I hope if we do concede that we carry on playing as we are, Vale look fairly poor so far.

From the close up camera angle it looked in but was actually 2 yards wide.
