Thought he looked very comfortable on the ball and played one or two lovely passes out of defence.
Naive for the first goal and can’t make out whether it was he or Nelson or both who were at fault for the second.
I was one of a few that was calling him to be in the side but I think beside rather instead of Morrison.

Good post, apart from his glaring mistake he looked class on the ball and put in a couple of cracking passes, baffled why in the second half our midfield collected the ball from him in defence and then proceeded to revert to type and put in their own standard misplaced passes, but perhaps that might be the result of a half time team tactics by our esteemed manager !
Anybody know if Benkovic when at Celtic or Worzels was playing in a back 3 or 4 ? and was he partnered with a seasoned pro along side him ?
Given that a top six is now ( pending a new manager and a miracle ) passed us bye, and given the right back problem, why not play a back 3 ?
