I think most of us and the owners were well aware of this before yesterday’s match. Over the last half dozen matches, all of our players have been playing out of their skins - yesterday most didn’t.
As our only recognized finisher, Wilson has to start (I’m not sure if he was 100% fit yesterday?) because Wood, we all know about, Joelinton, brilliant as he is is not a natural finisher and that leaves Miggy who is a winger, not a striker.
Having said this, I think it’s always wrong to criticize players over one performance, especially after a 6 game winning run and if you judge Longstaff over the whole season so far, no-one would drop him.
