Okafor didn't get that close did he?

Did they just say the left wasn't Jack Harrison's favourite side ?

Commentators are poor, defender got none of the ball there.

Jack is getting into positions to hit crosses but the end product is poor

Harrison has been abysmal so far, four good positions all over hit

I wonder if Jack Harrison plays golf. If he does I can imagine he plays his approach shots long and through the green regularly.

Poor cross from Harrison

Nobody making much of a case for more significant playing time as yet.

This will turn into a scrappy Championship game, we should be trying to control it.

When was the last time he played tbh? This is why we always lose in the cups when we pick players who never play. Gnonto has been quiet so far too for example.

Please not penalties - hard to believe there will be an alternative outcome at the moment.
