Trying to be an optimist here.
Bridcutt got 90 mins under his belt and after a poor start did start to show signs of being the player we all know he is as the game went on.
Agustien seems to have lost some weight and has the vision to play killer balls, even if they are still not quite working.
Conway looked like a half decent player.
Ummm struggling now, have I missed anything
Think this is about right. Agustein put in his best performance so far. As Icy Gull says he has vision and can spot and attempt to deliver a pass. He also makes time for himself: he thinks two or three seconds ahead, so that he factors in what the opposing player will do to challenge him, and he then gets into a position where he can pass to a teammate in the position they've moved into in the intervening period. I thought he looked pretty good against Newport (I didn't go to Birmingham), but he looks a decent player especially, as Icy Gull indicates, if it is the case that there's a little less of him.
