I was suprised LW chose to play Taylor at RWB as he is so obviously one footed and it isn't his right one lol. I think LW was forced into it , through Nemane's ban and possibly an injury to TAR. In the end I thought Taylor adapted well, and ironically the change of wing enabled him to cut in and score his worldie.
If we are going to use the keeper so much with ball at feet, I think we have to replace Slocombe, sadly.
I cannot see us struggling for goals this season, and it is a wee bit early to say there is no attacking threat from the wing backs, given both right sided players were unavailable and we had our more defensively minded left sided WB playing, through circumstance.
I felt we never had to get out of second gear really, so ratings could have been higher if forced to perform.
