Wonder if Ennis will get on for the last 15-20mins?

[duckson]

That would of been some goal.

[TommyRovers]

Leonard should have buried that. Hope it doesn't knock his confidence.

[Tugay-is-God]

Should be three. 

All starting from a lovely backheel from Wharton. 

[bluebruce]

Terrible miss. Gonna happen though, still a young lad. That's why we still need a proven striker.

[OsloRover]

Oh dear Leonard. Lovely play

Adam’s just sort of wandering about, looking half arsed… the ball seems to be wherever he is, he wins it, takes it past one or two and passes it forward. It’s such a gift. 

Not comparing them skill-wise, but he reminds me of Andrea Pirlo, that casual languid style, always seems to be in space and can beat a player without using pace.

Since he came on we've been much further up the pitch.

[WacoRover]

Leonard… AGAIN! Argh 

Hes got the instincts needs the finish

Another ridiculous ball from Wharton, he is too good. 

[bluebruce]

Damn, again...that one was a bit harder though. Bound to effect his confidence now you'd think.

[Guest]

what a pass from Wharton - Leonard unlucky !

[Dan]

Harry’s getting in the right places though, already a masssive upgrade on Gally. 

[roverandout]

Some people Said sell Wharton this summer.  The Boy will be the difference between play offs and midtable

[duckson]

Wharton different class.

[CambridgeRover]

Leonard two huge chances. Needs to score those but early days for his career

I always thought the same of Tugay too. I watched a thing a while ago on Messi at Barca and they analysed how he created significantly more space barely moving and choosing his moments compared to everyone else running about. Sign of a special player for sure.

Really hope that miss doesn’t come back to haunt

Might not be too long before you are comparing them skill-wise...

Hopefully not, as long as he keeps getting chances he’ll put some away. 

[joey_big_nose]

Leonard might be missing a couple of them but we went all of the last two seasons without anyone making those runs. He looks really good to me.

[Beanie01289]

Adam Wharton is magic

[Displaced Rover]

Fuck me I wish transfer window was closed. Wharton is pure class. He’ll dominate this league this season 

[OsloRover]

Wharton snd Leonard combo will get goals for us this season.
