Still getting comfortable under the new BA gaffer, and requirement to play out from the back more than last season??
Max Crocombe won his starting spot back for game two of the League One campaign.

Max Crocombe won his starting spot back for game two of the League One campaign.
Where... he almost immediately made a complete howler to cost his team the first goal. Hesitated trying to play the ball through the press and ended up just giving it away. This was pretty much why they dropped him in the first place, because of his messiness in possession.
But he kept his head back up and his team equalised almost immediately and Crocombe actually ended up having another strong game full of impressive saves and decent-enough passing. Alas, he was beaten by an own goal late in the first half then conceded from the penalty spot on 90+7’ after one of his defenders got too grappley at corner kick time. 3-3 was the final score. Should have been a win. The highlights are very eventful...

Hopefully Crocs still retains the starting spot, though nobody’s safe when the team has conceded 10 times in three matches. Crocombe’s made 11 saves in two games and had to face a penalty in each of them (one save, one not-save) so we probably oughta look towards the defence if we’re being honest about it.
