Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [11th - 15th February 2023]

Wish we could play the Ev every week, they are shocking. Some good performances in there, Bajcetic superb as usual, Gakpo starting to settle with luck and Trent was good defensively. Nice to have Jota and Bobby back too.
 
Looked a lot more secure at the back tonight and the fullbacks both looked good defensively but the energy, intensity and control in midfield was the real difference, especially from Bajcetic. Didn't expect Burnverton to be such a pushover, given it was a derby, but Newcastle will be a proper test on Saturday and will be a good indication of whether we've turned a corner or not.

Decent enough performance. We looked solid defensively, although Everton being toothless in attack helped there. We weren't really free flowing in attack in the first half but we looked a lot more fluid 2nd half and probably should have scored another goal or two.

You could tell that Bajcetic had something about him from watching him in the youth and reserve sides but I didn't imagine he'd make the step up to the first team as smoothly as he has. Even in games where we've been rubbish, he's always held his own. Long term he's going to be a 6 for us but short term I think playing him to the side of either a Fab or Henderson might be the best solution for us. Having a 2nd defensively minded midfielder in the 3 will give us a bit more protection but also his energy and pressing in midfield could help our attack no end too.
