And so was Bragg, a player I've been lukewarm about, but he was very good today - central midfield looks well stocked with Jander, JWP, Downes, Bragg and the rapidly improving Williams. Great second half from Saints - Scienza back to his best; Dobbin is finding his feet. CBs both excellent.

Yes, neither Bragg or JWP have played badly but defensively we are wide open in midfield.

You're right. If Scienza consistently played at his best, he probably gets picked up for a decent fee last July/August, despite his age. This season his form has dipped - he's paid more attention by defenders and regularly hacked and fouled. He is still a match winner, and the kind of direct runner we have lacked. Trouble is, too often he has been the only direct runner with a little bit of help from Azaz, Fellows, Edozie. If Dobbin can maintain his recent improvement he is going to take a load of attacking responsibility off Leo's shoulders.

KWP was outstanding today, as was Bree for that matter - a great day for both RBs. Appreciated KWP' muted goal celebration, he will always be a favourite former Saint.

He was written off way too early, just as Azaz was. Dobbin adds the pace, movement and silky skills we've needed. Tonda needs to find room for him when Larin returns

Every bit as good. I imagine Ramsdale would have been applauding from the sidelines.
