Brilliant result

What a quality day! We are bang in form at the exact right time. They really aren't. And I think we can catch them. If we keep playing the way we are, hopefully no injuries, keep getting the luck, we have a great chance from here.
What an excellent manager JDT is. Calm, collective and tactically astute. He has tried certain systems and found a winning one well within his first season. He is an intelligent guy who has found an effective system for the young group of players he has. While Dack & Brereton have been great at various times for us, I feel that front 3 of Szmodics Dolan and Gallagher in the No9 has more balance. Thomas has been a quality signing for our first 11.JRC and him cause problems down the left of any side we play. The balance in this 11 at present is perfect. Szmodics runs fast with the ball & uses it very well which is why we break on teams so effectively. Dolan SG & Szmodics are all fast. Gallys control, use of the ball has improved massively of late. In that central role. Which now complements the huge effort he puts in every week that mainly goes unnoticed.
Travis is playing like a real leader. In the best form of his career. Buckley was excellent today & looks back close to his best. They do now look like our best 2 centrally.
Pickering is really proving me wrong. Robin you did say stick with when I was writing him off. He really is solid most weeks. Top goal today and another 7/8 out of 10 performance.
Pears doesn't conceed goals and we rarely lose when he plays. Carter is improving every week and I feel he is our best new young player who has come through. Him & Hyam are solid.
If Dack comes back (and he is already back training) & Kaminski I still would keep them on the bench and let this side have a run. Great to be bringing in when needed if we get injuries & as subs. But this current side are more effective and more balanced.
