Much, much better today. More pace, movement, and desire to our play - albeit against a very poor Coventry team.
The new keeper looks decent, and his kicking was very good.
Mousinho had a very good match. A proper centre back performance, and no messing around on the edge of our box.
Garbutt definitely was much improved today. A bit more conviction and decisiveness to his play. Still far off the player I think he can be, but more promising for sure.
Norman should, I think, keep his place in the team on that showing. He's much more mobile and physical than McMahon, and seems more willing to get forward. He's no George Baldock (yet, anyway), but he brings more to the side for me.
Baptiste put in a very mature and composed performance. Very impressed.
Browne clearly looks like an excellent player. Fast, quick feet, direct, works hard, good in the air. If we can find a way to fit him and Holmes into the team together, we'll certainly be a threat.
So overall there were some good displays, and we definitely looked like more of a cohesive unit. I think we had more balance to our team with some proper width (in the form of Browne and Whyte), and Baptiste did a good job of holding the midfield to allow Brannagan to play with a bit more freedom. As I say, Coventry were very, very poor, but that was certainly much more promising.
