Not really Rodon has played mostly on the right sideline .. Even the commentators have picked that up...

I would get DCL off and give Piroe a run out. And I would also sub off Gudmundson, Aaronson, and Okafor. I'll let the Manager choose the replacements. :)

They aren’t showing the replay from that run of play where the Palace keeper got hurt. I’d love to see if there was a handball on Palace there.

Okafor has done his job.

Must keep the man fit, I think we all knew we had signed a good player, it was just his injury record that had some worried

Rodon shot goes wide ... He's definitely playing wing back
Yes and Bogle is drawing their left side in field so he’s had space 👍🏻

Bogle trotting back after losing ball on half way. Don’t like that

Thanks for confirming. Didn’t want to rewind as I don’t want to miss a second of the action. We are playing wonderfully!

Good game from Brenden, not so much Okafor who's had a quiet one, is the best way of putting it ...
