    Not pedantic, just the wrong side of the pitch. Had to re-read it and everything, suppose Tony was our back up left back a while there

    Actually thought Tony did OK. A few rusty first touches when seemed like he thought he had more time but overall thought he did well enough.

    Should've had an assist first half to get us going and sprayed it about well. Plus had that diddy Yang the whole time..

    Just has a top player infront of him now..

    He is what he is. Thought he was good in the first half though...

    He’s painfully slow on the ball which means he has to turn out and go back far too often. He does have it in him to pick out some great passes but usually takes so long to get it out his feet he’s got nothing on by the time he has.

    We’re just a totally different animal with Johnston in that position.

    He was OK, seen absolutely tons of the ball first half and Yang did nothing to offer him movement further up the wing.

    Played a couple of excellent diagonals to Palma as well.

    No issues with him as a rotation option, we'd struggle to find anyone else as good as him who'd be happy to be the second choice.

    Touch was poor about 3/4 times when he had time and space to put a ball in which was terrible really to do that numerous times a game.

    I get he's a backup player but the levels between him and Johnston are huge.

    Combination of him not playing very much over last 18 months and AJ really kicking on the past 7 or 8 months.
