Was awesome today. Great in defense, great going forward, confident in possession, sees the whole pitch and picks out a nice long pass. It's only one match but he looks rock solid; lucky for us if everyone else underestimated him.

Hopefully his leg is OK. If he stays fit we might never see Garbutt again.
 
Thought the back four looked steady.
Williams slotted in like he'd played next to Marv for the last three years.
Connolly did what Connolly does and did it well.
Marv, bit too casual at times but on the whole 👍🏻
Thompson was top class today
 
What a terrier. Stayed on to help the team when clearly injured. Williams was my MoM. What a quality CB pairing we have. Uncle Richard has some bench warming ahead.
 
He had cramp, he'll be fine. I thought Williams was rock solid too
Williams does this thing where he passes it out to Thompson, but with pace and he kind of pings it aka looks like almost a toe poke, but it glides and arrives quickly which is what you want.

Can see some of the quality of one or two in todays line up, some better touches 1st half, vision and passing, plus belief, less hesitation and willingness to try.
 
Looks the real deal. Put straight in the team as well, not sure whether that was because of a garbutt injury or he’s just clearly miles better. Was expecting someone a bit taller though.
 
He had a good 1st touch, calm on the ball, strong, pretty quick, passing looked good with some simple passes without hesitation and some good balls down the line.
 
Really liked him, he has a great energy about him. Looks like we’ll be solid on the left and he offers something going forward too, great debut.
 
He had an excellent debut until cramp (hopefully) forced him to come off.
Looked very composed on the ball and passed well, especially up the line.
I was very impressed by all the new signings today, but glad we have Dom permanently.

Stand out moment for me was a brilliant back headed clearance from under his own cross bar in the 2nd half.
Goal saving header for me, as their forward was behind him.

Well played Dominic. 👏
 
Nobber? That is what you call one of our players after a opening day win?
Pardon me if I take your comment as derogatory which is what it is usually is meant to be. Sad very sad.
Don’t be silly, he’s a Preston fan , as far as the game went , he had an excellent debut, but he is still a Preston fan , a Nobber. Just as we are Donkey Lashers so climb down off your high horse !
 
I also thought he had an excellent debut, but I would give a man of the match to Connolly, several other players stood out for short periods but Connolly was standout for 90 minutes for me

Good that we are having this debate with so many players being put forward for MOTM

I don't know why but for some reason I just assumed CC was a bit older than his actual 24.
A better man's Ollie Turton.
