Couldn't make the game Saturday. How did the new forwards look? Rodrigues and Lewis? Dyer really didnt get much chance to show anything i presume with how late he got on.
Lewis is small but I do think he might be decent, Rodriguez is young and should learn but at the moment I would say out of his depth
Lewis isn't a forward. He played on the left touchline (a winger) and touched the ball six times in 23 minutes. He never gave the ball away, looked quick and forward thinking. Rodrigues looked bright and full of running for 25 minutes, but touched the ball 10 times, before looking well off the pace and replaced on the hour by a centre mid who hadn't appeared since Huddersfield beat us in the league at their place, 17 weeks ago. Lembikisa came on and had plenty of the ball but had a pass completion of 42% as he kept lumping it up the right flank. Farrugia (striker last week) looked lively, well up for it at left wing-back, but could easily have been sent off in the first half.
Dyer, Got the last 3 or 4 minutes plus injury time. At least he got an effort on target. Which some of our players have really struggled to do
I like humphs and jumped to his defence a few times but I made this exact point to my family on the way home on Saturday. Seems a big lad does dyer and saw him win two headers in the few minutes he was on - that’s more headers than any of our strikers have done all seasons I’d say give him more of a go Saturday!
Dyer did enough in 4 minutes to lead the line until the end of the season for me. Can't do any worse than Humphrys. Rodriguez did look o.k but nothing more. Lewis might as well have been a chocolate dildo. Dodged every opportunity to attack after coming on. Which I found odd seen as though he's allegedly an attacking player.
I thought Lewis did decent when coming on, got the ball, rapid, and just ran down the wings. Exactly what we've been missing Edit - considering he barely had the ball anyway. Seemed like he was trying to do something mate
