Good all round performance away from home where not many teams will claim 3 points. When you think Aaronson missed 2 sitters along with Joseph 2, James 1 and Bamford 1 even Ampadu 1 this could have been a drubbing away from home. Not sure I agree with your thoughts on Aaronson. Yes he runs around a lot but can`t win a 1 on 1 contact and often makes the wrong decision. But all credit to him he keeps going and pops up at the right time. Joseph another who runs a lot but his finishing is terrible and looks like another Joffy. Rodon brilliant at the back once again and personally think Rothwell adds more going forward than both Tanaka and Ampadu. Reading the YEP report and can`t remember the "miracle save" from Meslier.

Such a pity there`s 4 or 5 very average teams in the PL otherwise Scumchester United could be in trouble

aaronson may not be perfect but he's already scored more than rutter did all last season. I don't think we'll get a 10 as we can cope till the summer. hopefully we'll need a better quality player by then. possibly another no 9., maybe another full back

2 points dropped. tanaka totally switched off at the corner and bang. looked leggy, not surprisingly, and imo farke got the subs all wrong. bamford offered absolutely nothing and ramazani should have been on. still, 7 points from 9 over Christmas.

I think we’re all so used to winning at home that it feels like a real setback. In fairness to Blackburn, they did a job on us again. We really struggled to create anything that first half, and for me the two right footers (Byram and Solomon) going down the left hand side killed our shape in the final third. We’re coming back inside and congesting play up front far too often from that left hand side. No real presence in the box until Joseph came on as well it has to be said. Dan James had his worst game this season probably, and it maybe sums up just how over reliant we might be getting on him at times. I agree with Tad re Bamford, I’d have just brought Joseph on for Piroe and Gnonto for Rothwell and that would have kept a better shape on the field. Anyway, no panic stations, just a very good winning home run coming to an end. Bounce back at Hull hopefully.

i agree about byram. kills loads of breaks. solomon i thouhht was looking dangerous. i'd have dropped piroe to 10 to find a pocket of space. as it stands, and it will probably change, sheff utd on for 1 point from 9 so makes ours look superb. big game at hull.then it's a fortnight with only harrogate in there and surely resting players.
