Good performance, and nice to see us playing as a team rather than passing to two players, but I feel we should be 2 or 3 goals in front. Can't afford to let them back in it, as they've offered nothing so far.

Good to be 1 up but the Wendies are very weak

Very good half.

Kept the crowd quiet, scored a terrific team goal, Joseph involved.

Just need more of the same.

Hope we don’t regret not scoring a second goal in 1 hour

The latter for me. As good a first half away from home as we have seen under DF.
We were very good at Leicester last season and for me that was our best performance.

That is the idea mate - the FB’s push on and the two holding midfield drop back to create a back 4 or sometimes just Amps to make a 3. But it is causing them far more issues than it is us.

I’m enjoying this, good pace to the game and willing to take the odd risk. The crossing from the right side needs to be in front of our attacking line, too often it’s been behind. Get that right and we go home with the 3 points. Joseph doing well for my money. Rodon looks back on it too.

I really hope DF doesn't do that weird thing when we try to sit back and defend a one goal lead.

Glad to see we didn't let off the gas in the first half after the goal. More of the same in the second half please.

I get the point of it, and today it's largely working, but first two games of the season it was a contributing facor to us shipping 6 goals. I'd rather one winger pushed on, one moved accross and Ampadu held a bit higher.

A lot more positive with him at No.10, working well when he switches with Gnonto and James too.

Not sure how good/bad Wednesday are, but that was pretty good from us.

Ampadu having a brilliant game.

Joseph credited with the assist but it should be Gnonto's or both

Which is more of what we saw last season, YS.

Good performance so far.

Using the full width of the pitch which is a nice change, Aaronson, Joseph and Gnonto causing problems with the movement.

Nice team press causing Wendies to make mistakes and a midfielder even got to the edge of the box!!!!!

Good performance so far, more of the same please not that sit back stuff we've done before in this position.
