Is it me or is Yalcouye starting to look stronger and more at home at this level. Each time he has come on recently he has impressed me.
I would like to see more of him in the next 2 games.

The red card and subsequent time out of the side has given him plenty of time to learn and reflect. He wouldn't be the first player where that kind of red card was the wake up call that they needed and was actually the making of them.

Reminds me of that young striker we had a couple of years back, got himself sent off after like 5 mins into his first start for the club. We managed to grind out the win (I think it was under Potter, Blackburn maybe?) but after returning from his suspension his maturity was much better.

Think it was Courtney Baker Richardson, currently at Newport was maybe against Millwall?

Thank you for refreshing my memory

As memory serves he then scored the opening goal on his first game back from suspension (he grabbed 3 goals and 1 assist in 17 appearances that season)

Keep the sulking Ronald firmly on the bench for the foreseeable future. Home win.

We have 13 outfield players who haven't scored a goal this season and 3 on just one goal.

Hopefully a new year and a new change of direction for our attacking play.

Happy new year all... even the blindsided ones

I'd take a point tomorrow. I know their record isn't great away from home but this time of year players are absolutely shattered and performances significantly drop as a result.

You’re implying that only our players are knackered.

No but we have a lot of players are just aren't used to this volume of games at this intentisity. A few of players came off against Oxford with cramp ect. Vipotnik couldn't move in the last 5 min against Oxford I don't see how he can even play 60 tomorrow.

Why are you not mentioning the fact that WBA also played on the 26th and 29th and are likely to have the same level of fatigue? It’s an odd take.
