Imho...a up and at em game ...I expected. We look quicker to the ball but Wednesday have enough to cause us problems. I'm as surprised as anyone with those two goals...I think Thomas (luke) will have to come on and carry this forward. A draw looks highly likely and there's still goals in this one....hopefully we can retain the advantage. Wednesday are top for a reason.
Clearly the piggies don't want to play in midfield. So, we need to dictate that. Phillips as good as he's been hasn't got into the game as much, and I wish Cadden would believe in himself more trying to take a man on for the extra yard or 2 for a cross. Cos his crossing is immense. We somehow need to bring Luke T into this, maybe a direct swap with Phillips. But granted it's not my call. Duff can call at as he chooses, it's only my opinion, and he deserves to play this how he sees fit. What a great couple of minutes though
You said you hope we dont play like this every week. Have you not just seen us demolish Derby, Portsmouth, Plymouth and then beat Wycombe? Talk about hyperbolic mate!
Ref being lenient with some of the fowls tackles. Hope we can keep the lead….well deserved so far.. what a team we’ve got.
Wednesday have not really offered anything. They may have had more chances, but less on target. We gifted them their goal
First half can be mainly summed up by two things: 1) We only look dangerous when we don’t have the ball. 2) They only look dangerous when they get a throw in. We need to calm down a bit when we have the ball. We’re rushing passes even when under no pressure. Kane is a surprising culprit, as is Norwood. You can see why they’re up there in the league. At times they look very good. They’re scared stiff when they have it at the back though. They’re defenders aren’t good enough to play out from the back when under pressure. When we get it together we look good too. Need more composure. Also need to maintain this intensity which will be very hard!
The way we've nicked the ball off them in their half must have really pleased Duff, and two really good finishes, but can't imagine he's too happy with a lot of our play. Don't want to be critical when we're leading 2-1 but at the same time I know we're capable of playing much better, even taking into consideration that Sheffield Wednesday have some strong players.
We definitely need more composure on the ball, as there's been time to take a touch, especially in midfield, plus we can't give it away cheaply as its inviting pressure. Get it down and a bit less pointless head tennis.
