I don't think I saw Pickford kick with anything other than his left foot. Just an observation though.

Good but wouldn't say excellent distribution

It's all relative I suppose - I've got used to seeing it go out most of the time!

Quality with the pen. No goalie would’ve saved it.
time we started having the target man down the centre a little more , so many goal kicks and clearances just going straight out of play with Murray or Andone standing there within a few feet of the touchline

Quitely impressive today. Commanded his area well which is the thing Ryan struggles with. Obviously Ryan is clear number 1 but numbers 2 and 3 look reasonable back ups.
Didn't show any nerves when being closed down by their forwards which was also a positive IMHO.
Looks decent. Very solid again today.
Can all those who were almost fainting in panic at the thought of a January without Ryan come out from behind their sofas now, please?

No dodgy moments today, but has in both of the other games.
In fact, handling very good today.

From which we got four more points than some thought we'd get when Ryan was away!

Close to saving the penalty too.

Good keeper, we lack Ryan's distribution though. Some wayward kicks today which didn't help to relieve any pressure.
Perfectly adequate stand-in IMO. Liked how he came for crosses a couple of times and punched it well away.

I think Button did play well but I don't know why we only take goal kicks and kick to the left hand side where most of the players move toward. On a couple of occasions today, March was one on one with Robertson on the right and a surprise kick that way could have made an opportunity. This is also true when Ryan plays and a change of direction every so often would surely create more space.

Did really well. Is looking like what we all knew already is true, Ben Roberts is a great coach and knew what he was doing selecting our two back-ups.
Still take Ryan first choice though!
