    Aye think I'm now convinced this is the way to go. A goal for Kenny would be unreal for his his confidence aswell.

    If it was last season Daizen then I would start him but he’s been well off the boil before his injury so think Kenny starts and bring him on later and ruin their * defence

    He played really well.

    As harsh as it sounds, given how well he played, I think that young Osmand looks like he has so much more to his game.

    Wow. Went from being worried sick about our strikers to thinking we have 3 very capable ones.
    I come from a place not far from Kenny.
    A goal against the huns is always brilliant but that one felt a bit different.
    Really, really delighted for the lad.

    Over the moon for him, had a feeling he would get his goal and he's delivered. If he can keep up this form over a few months it will be the absolute epitome of why I normally hang off on writing players off when most are wanting them punted.

    Delighted for him.

    Gives his all and will score goals for us but just doesn’t have that quality to be our main striker, will do a job though till we get strikers in.

    Led the line really well. He has a physical presence that unsettles defenders and his movement and ability to run the channels was very good. The header was brilliant.

    Still a bit raw but he's earned his chance now.

    Thought he was a handful, took his header really well too. Deserves a lot of credit for his performance today.

    That header was Sutton-esque. Wish Nygren stayed out his way for the chance he missed.

    He was brilliant I thought, just needs to sharpen up a bit but what a header that was and absolutely buzzing for him.

    Thought he took his goal very well, showing a great strikers instinct, both he and Osmand looking good, 2 young guys eager to impress.

    Not the cleanest technically but he is a handful and will create enough chances for himself that he will score goals. Plenty of potential in him.

    Can be a bit loose at times but I know what you mean, he's well able to spot opportunities and give and go. He needs a bit of polishing but if he can tidy up his touch and finish he could definitely have a big future here.

    He reminds me a lot of Jamie Vardy with his movement, pace and just being a general menace to defenders.

    I genuinely think that if we sort out the wings Kenny and Osmand can get the goals. As we seen today they will get in the positions and they have the energy and movement to work defenders to the bones.

    They look a * sight better than Kelechi.
