In many ways though, that’s encouraging

Plenty of room for improvement.

From what we’ve seen last two games, I think we’re better with one winger (Ahmed), plus schwartau and slimane.

With two wingers, there aren’t enough players around Makama to link up play, and currently, I’d say that’s the main area of his game to work on; holding it up and getting it to one of our three attacking midfielders.

PC’s comments after the game were spot on, as always. Not our most complete performance under him as we allowed them a couple of decent chances
