Really? I thought Solly March did a pretty sound job yesterday, against a lot of people's expectations.

How many times has March scored?

Looks like we created plenty,so the only thing missing was a goal scorer

Solly March's wing player for that last hour was as good as we've seen for the Albion for a very long time. There's no question Da SIlva should have gone and he got other players into trouble with the ref.
I agree that although he is very creative he doesn't look like scoring but yesterday was not about the absence of Lua Lua, it was our inability to convert from close range.

Not as many as Kaz admittedly, but as a replacement for the great one March had a good game. I do agree with you on Lua-Lua having the cutting edge and, yes, he could have scored the decisive goal yesterday. Still, we now have a break of two weeks which means Lua-Lua can have more recovery time without missing matches.
The main difference between Kaz this season and Solly's performance, yesterday, is that Solly doesn't have the reputation to 'scare' the opposition.
By the time Cardiff realised that wasn't actually the case, it was already to late for them.
Solly needs to work on yesterday, he needs to have defenders terrified of him before the whistle is blown.
Then he'll get the extra yard of space Kaz revels in.
At the moment I'm still seeing the boy Solly as Craig Noone II, I desperately hope that'll be proved wrong by the time we roll into 2016.

I know some Americans with 6 or 7 weapons and some body armour who would not miss him.

Latest on his injury. looks like Leeds at a stretch, possibly Bristol. In which case its likely we'll have all March, Lua Lua, Murphy and Manu all available for Preston (H) on the 24th.

Hughton: “He’s doing okay. The international break will help. We are quite optimistic it won’t be too much longer.
“We’ll look over this two weeks to get him involved in training, maybe the following week, certainly not this week, and see where we are once we get to the Leeds and Bristol games.
“We’re hoping it might be some time around then.”
