Main thing is we did enough to get the 3 points. Good defensive performance with Hegazi and Daws strong and in control. Gibbs deserves a mention as he rarely wastes possession and is often involved in some of our more dangerous attacks.
Barry again very impressive for a 38 year old. He knows how to make time for himself and times and delivers his passes accurately. And Gayle absolutely top notch. You couldn't really ask for a better striker at this level. Some people are quick to criticise JRod when he misses chances, but his overall scoring record is good, and he is very much a team player.
Of the new boys, I thought Johansen looks like he can add some much needed creativity to the midfield and slot well into our system. Murphy has certainly got a turn of speed and able to get around his full back. It's just that some of his passing and shooting accuracy looked sloppy and in that regard, he didn't look any better than McLean.
But we really have alot of choice now in midfield. When Phillips is back, we will have 9 players competing for 3 places, so DM has plenty of options, which is good. That will keep everyone on their toes, and he can play whoever is looking sharpest.
