I thought Jarrad Branthwaite was a class above any of our players on Saturday, how could Dyche only just start playing him now, surely he can see his quality in training, no wonder the top teams are interested in buying him, also a big mention for Garner, also top, to be honest I would prefer him in the middle of the midfield once we get the wide players sort much better than Onana, I would use Onana as an impact Sub for now, unfortunately Onana is not creative enough in this position.

I think Gana should be the one to drop out, ball retention is woeful, most of the fouls he gives away are attempted revcoveries after he's give the ball away either with a sloppy pass or being caught in possession.

I don't disagree with Branthwaite but he gives the ball away too much or picks the wrong pass. This means the ball comes straight back at us. Defensively though, he was the best on the pitch.

I also agree with Gana to be dropped and Garner moved inside. As NP says he gave the ball away far too much, slow to react and gives so many stupid fouls away. Onana is doing okay but the role he is good at is taken by Decoure at the moment. Personally, I would let Onana off the leash and let him roam about further forward.

Gana past his best should be sub. Branthwaite is quality, wouldn't need to make those passes if he had a midfielder to take the ball off him. None of our current lot seem to be able to do that.

I don’t know how many picked up Jarrod telling Tarks where he should be positioning himself.
Beggars the question how Sean and his coaching staff questioned his ability based on his age.

He was on international duty in the summer, maybe SD thought it was best to ease him in? He is a good player though, only going to get better with more top level games.
