Pinnock absolutely solid at the back. He’s very cool on the ball, put in some great tackles, and marshalled a very highly rated Jordan Hugill round all game. And it’s his 2nd ever Championship start, and his 2nd ever league football start. V happy. Mallan was tidy. Got stuck in a few times, worked hard, just lacked a bit of pace and bravery for me.. set pieces were alright. Nearly scored a beauty in the dying minutes. Isgrove is a breath of fresh air. Pacey, wins everything, looks dangerous. All in all the team dug in well and earned a good point against a strong Preston side. Could have got a goal and probably should have won, aerial presence up front required IMO. Glad Pinnock got the man of the match. The first step towards stopping the rot and getting out of bad form is making us hard to score against, and that certainly was the case today. All 5 4 defenders and Davo put in solid performances. Well in
Did absolutely **** all but did embarrasingly try to win a few free kicks by throwing himself to the floor.
Hugill managed to change his shirt from White to Brown by kicking the ball into advertising boards, tripping over the rebounding ball and falling over, into the gravel on the other side of the chuffin board
He bullied us a little first half, but as the game wore on, Pinnock had him in his pocket. I'd have him here in a shot.
He looks like the unfavourable outcome of a failed genetic experiment to combine the DNA of Quasimodo and John Merrick, mixed in with Joey Essex's IQ. I like him
