Credit to the whole team, including Marsch, for that result - that saved his job!
Cooper’s Bambi impression was, thankfully, just another comedy moment which didn’t cost us, but that aside a great result. Gnonto’s cameo was encouraging, Summerville had his best game, and to see them combining for the second goal, via Bamford, was really positive. And take a bow Meslier - a giant out there. Nice to enjoy a game.
