That wasn’t so much a ground out win. Yes we ended up 2-1 up after playing shite first half. But on balance after the second half we still deserved the win. Brownhill missed two huge chances and jay missed a sitter. Swansea didn’t create any chances as good as those 3.

I wonder what churlinov will be like whether he is similar. I think twine is a more technical less athletic type so maybe plays the brownhill role?

I imagine us only having 1 in there is a result of our rotation and large squad. Zaroury for example would be nailed on if you took the last 5 games when he’s been starting.
Suprised tella doesn’t make it though as he has played a lot. Maatsen as well, maybe THB.
