    Never known them get a whole match up so quickly. Reflection of how well things are going maybe?

    I'm just going to watch the big highlights package first then the rest later

    Well, looking at that young Fletch should have had a hat trick. He took his goal brilliantly but then, in the second half wasted a couple. Shot wide from the centre of the goal and then tried to score himself when a simple ball though to Chapman would have probably resulted in a goal.

    But that's what strikers do I suppose. Greedy, single minded - he's no different to any others. He is coming along nicely but still has plenty of rough edges to smooth out. Not on a par with Rashford I suppose but, with our help, he might get there.

    Only one commentary blooper that I noticed - "that was Fletcher's second goal of the season". Second goal of the WEEK yes, but he's got four.

    Yes, I thought that was a bit strange!

    When are we going to get full backs that stick to their wingers and not treat them like lepers. it's been going on for too long now.

    All teams seem to play like that though with varying degrees of success. Most defenders prefer not to tackle unless they really have to.

    can only comment on videos I've seen and my own eyes at home, but they, all the full backs we,ve had recently, seem very reluctant to mark their wide man and I think eventually we could pay a costly price.

    I honestly havent seen it as a problem and definitly not yesterday, i dont think Walsall actually played with traditional wide wingers to be fair. the main problem yesterday was Romain Sawyers playing wherever he wanted and gaining space. Thought both full back played very well considering one was making his debut and the other has only played a handful of games.
