Don’t think they were bad misses, though. Header maybe the best chance, but he misses wide.

Next one that’s good strength to hold off the defender and get a shot on target away. Maybe needs to square it. Not much of an angle and hits it straight into the keeper.

The final one he anticipates well. Back header and he intercepts. Much like the final one he doesn’t get much on it, but nurdles it past the keeper on second attempt only for one defender to have retreated and clear. 

All signs of a man in some form, creating things too and perhaps at a level which is more comfortable for him. Kind of thing he was doing for Arglye imo, but for slightly less return with the higher level.

Anyway great to see him finding his feet. I always wondered if he came across as a bit posh for some in a football team with his good clean lad bit [bit not but!] and accent…but goals are goals and you score them you’ll keep every one happy.
