We have too much pace up top for most of the teams in this division.

I must admit, it's very refreshing to see 40 yard passes. Especially when they're as good as the two assists tonight. Great running too

Connor can keep that dodgy tash if he’s playing balls like that 😁
Last time i saw something like that, the whole herd had to be destroyed.

Chorus of “Super James Trafford in Goal” should put the rumours that it’s us booing him

Really refreshing this.

No ideological crap, just playing proper football. The players look like they have freedom (within reason) to play off instinct rather than forcing things and doing training ground moves up and down the pitch.

Good stuff.

That's 6"1, mean brick shizzlehouse Carlton Morris getting 'wrestled' to the floor by little Luca.

Ref keeps falling for it and it looks to be the only viable tactic they have.

Yes.
And we've only had 45 mins or so of the season.
Just imagine if we improve a lot.

Much quicker sharper passing. Longer balls bypassing the press...!

Looking much better. Bit concerned about Odobert and Foster holding that middle line but then again who needs to hold anything when you are as fast as a train....!

Been a very good half.
We've looked better all over.
They've just not handled our press or energy!
Two cracking goals.
Great watch.

Sorry if it has been asked already but which fans are booing Trafford I sincerely hope it is not ours. And is it me or has Lyle put on a lot of timber?

Koleosho absolutely frightens them to death.

Rodriguez or Weghorst or even Houdini for Foster, at some stage. We may need to hold the ball up.

Mixed football. Some short, some long. Solid at the back. Good shape. Decent pressure on the ball. Very professional.

I didn’t know what to expect today, a bit like Huddersfield away two years ago. So far, I’m much more impressed by this first half display than I was 2 years ago and that is saying something.

A lot of energy that half and with subs to come with pace looks promising.. you could see how wout in fosters position would be even more impactful in this setup and play.. be interesting to see who comes on when the changes are made

Considering the respective oppositions it’s far more impressive than even that magical night. Very true.

Centre halves outstanding and giving us the solid platform from which to play. Great mixture of long and short passing which I presume is due to the opposition. Hopefully we will be a little less direct in the majority of games but today it's been the perfect tactic.

Koleosho is absolutely rattling their young full-back at times and he looks like no slouch either. Must be questioning his choice of career at this point.
