We also got out muscled last night, even bullied. Toure (21) and Irankunda (19) are still very young, but man they are strong kids. Part of me wishes that Nestroy free kick had gone in, it was quite superb.

Fingers and toes LBS does have a great ALM season. He's strong and talented, if unfortunately this coming WC maybe 12 months too early for him. But if he does star for the Nix he definitely comes into the mix. Were some glimpses of his talent last night. For a now a project player, but if he reaches half of where Irankunda is in the coming months, he will offer a real point of difference.

Speaking of muscular players, I'd also bring Tuiloma back into the squad to back up Payne. He has defensive issues for sure, but I think coming on at say around 65 mins for Tim P, he can offer something. Certainly more than Elliott, who just seems like yet another small AW with some useful ball skills. Tuiloma is a genuine goal threat. Given the AWs scoring limitations I think alot of thought needs to go into how set pieces can be a genuine goal option
