With the caveat that I watched this game on a mobile screen whilst supervising soft play, it looked like we've addressed the starting slowly and getting better problem, on both sides of the sentence.
Few candidates today?

Was torn between Munroe and Oldaker gone for the latter just. By far their best performances in the shirt so far. I am worrying less and less about our flanks with each game.

Only saw the second half but Oldaker very good I thought.

Munroe, Wright and Oldaker did well for me, Smith all over the place up front suffering from a lot of povocation at times too and kept is calm.
Prince made a few lovely runs but ran out of pace 2nd half too.

Lots of candidates especially based on the first half hour. I went for Monroe, with special mention for Nicholls, Oldaker, Snowden, and McGregor even though he wasn't on the pitch for that long.

Oldaker outstanding. Munro continues to impress and Wright nearly back to his composed best.1-2-3

Went for Munroe whose defensive work caught the eye. Made one goal saving block in the box towards the end.
Dare I say it, but he looks like a more well rounded prospect at this stage than KKH did.

Difficult one.
Nichols for the first 20 mins was superb. But that was helped by the front 3 pressing. Together with Oldaker they bossed the midfield.
Snowdon did well pushing forward.
Wright was assured. Ball was solid. Wilson- Brown did OK considering he was ill. And Munroe did well.
Drinan ran himself into the ground! Smith won everything in the air in both boxes and the Prince oozed X factor.
Really difficult, but think I’ll go for Nicholls.

Ive only watched the extended highlights but Snowdon looks a useful signing so far.
