Player of the season so far for me is Darikwa.
Looks about two divisions better than he is playing going forward and in defence.
Assgard had a bloody awfu game compared to his normal effort but will forgive him for that last free kick.
.........he was terrible in the 1st 5 games.
Darika does not defend as well as he goes forward, was at fault for their goal tonight.Player of the season so far for me is Darikwa.

Wooton made some cracking blocks tonight that could have been goals.There's 3 pts we probably didn't deserve rather than the 3pts we did deserve Saturday.
Massive confidence boost and a good job given other results tonight.
Also :-
Joey - can't beat Latics
Ben Watson - what you playing at legend ? (not helpful)
Wooton spared his blushes with that goal - makes Dan Burn look like Usain Bolt
A win's a win UTFT
Really?
If I remember rightly, in his very first game, he was excellent. He's had a couple of off games since, but generally, he's been one of our better players ...... consistently.
Seeing the celebrations on and off the pitch tonight, I have no doubt at all that these lads are up for the fight. Can't wait to watch that winner over and over again later. UTFT
He was falling over the ball, losing it consistently and looked lost when on the ball. Played some nice outside of the foot passes, but struggled at beginning for me anyway. Has been more confident lately, doesn't link well with wingers ahead of him though.
We must have been watching different games then. No worries.
Darikwa almost cost us two goals tonight, switched off from a simple throwing, straight over his head to Nichols and at the beginning when they had two shots in the box. They had most of their success attacking his flank, not sure we were watching the same game. He's getting better considering he was terrible in the 1st 5 games.
He also turned slower than the QE2 for the goal - wasn't on his own mind, very similar to Lincolns winner except did both CBs rather than 1Wooton made some cracking blocks tonight that could have been goals.
Sorry but just cannot agree with this.
He Lang and Keane are the most composed on the ball in the squad. Assgard is usually also fairly sure in possession but was more likely to lose the ball tonight than beat his man. I also have been a bit disappointed by Otaborn since he came back. He seems to have lost confidence to take a man on.
If we can get these 5 ticking over and sort defence out we will rip it up this league.

Jones should have been covering that side better IMO as that was the only place it was going - no lessons learned defensively

Well swerved sir !
