On the way back to London following the game

A great 3 points, not a vintage performance. there was some suggestion if we had lost the table wouldn't show a good unbeaten run, we look quite secure but need to keep pushing on.

Thought we started well and looked tidy on the ball. Deservedly took the lead and after a period where they came back into it scored a really well taken second.

Second half we rode our luck and lucky to win. We seemed to lack composure on the ball which invites pressure on us. Most frustrating, we don't get balls in to the box. The number of times a quick pass or putting ball in would have been an option. Instead we were slow,and constantly playing the ball backwards. Bennett came on, beat a man and put in a good cross, more than snodgrass and pilks managed the whole game. If we're going to play one upfront I think we would be better suited to playing wide players on their correct foot.

In defence. Bassong is a beast, Bennett looked slightly raw and was turned a little easily for the sessegnon chance. No complaints about garrido. Bunn, looks like an able deputy but highlights how far Ruddy has come in his time with us. Whitaker didn't have a great time, possibly could have dealt with the ball better before the goal?

Standout player, no question, Wes.
