Gooch is currently better on the right than those who played there yesterday, only the foolish or those that can't get over their preconceived frustrations with Gooch can't see that. Time will tell who does and doesn't take their chances but we missed Gooch's ability to carry the ball up the field yesterday, especially once Cirkin went off.
On a side but related note the lack of pace in the supporting three was evident without him and why Dejaku was brought on, albeit he looks very raw. I don't think playing Prichard and Embleton together is a great idea, when it means Embo is often shunted wide. Hopefully we see an improvement in Dejaku over the next month otherwise a pacey wide player is key in January.
I’ve been quite surprised by how slow Embleton is actually and I think he needs to be played in the 10 with pace either side of him.
Dajaku showed little flashes of what he’s about but understandably looks short of match sharpness and was guilty of making the wrong decision a few times.
