Not everyone has critiqued Ryan for his kicking. There’s been a clear shift in management strategy since the middle of last season where Stockdale’s passing strategy was clearly changed. I think that strategy has continued with Ryan whose strategy appears to be ‘play it short if it’s an option...
I thought Pickford looked very good against us. It's the second time he's been down this way (with Preston the once, if I remember correctly) and on both occasions he's done his job well.
