Louis John is a brick shithouse Div 2 defender who wins just about everything in the air...more fallible on the deck for sure. In fairness, they should have go at least a point and maybe more...
I disagree with their manager they should have got more/anything from the game. The battled hard but had no end product at all. Our quality in the final third won it and it was comfortable once we’d scored. A bit of a lesson in the gap between the better sides form then IMO.

Difficult to argue as they ended scoreless, but a little harsh i feel...The stats and MT's opinion suggests they were closer than you acknowledge. Doesn't matter though, results in the book

Which begs the question why it took City so stop lumping the ball in the air and play it on the deck instead.

Three shots on target out of 18 suggests that Max may have a point. 1632054850293.png

Just watched the extended highlights again, still a very difficult watch except for the last minute or so!

If you look at Sutton's last four league matches they have produced 16 18 19 and 18 shots each match, yet only 2 4 7 3 were on target and have scored scored four goals in this period, their analyitcs guy should be highlighting this and perhaps there manager needs to encourage a bit more accuracy in their shooting as 4 goals from 71 shots seems a lot of goal kicks and corners.

I though the first goal was an OG in real time, and having seen it from 3 angles stand by that.

Sorry Sam, and all that.
