Really slow start, I only saw their goal in real-time but it looks like we were fortunate. Thought the ref had initially got conned by the dive too but made a good decision.
Bueno was really bad to begin, Blackburn did target his side and kept getting in behind at first. Dennis looked alright and the other forward Kargbo was very dangerous (surprised they took these two off). Bueno was alright after we scored but even against Championship leve opposition was a major weak link. Hwang was also completely anonymous.
Fortunate first goal followed by a quality second killed the game. I never trusted Johnstone (horrendous kicking) but he actually dealt with it all OK, a lot of routine catches. Maybe it's just because I have zero confidence in him but always felt Blackburn were dangerous from set pieces.
Bueno and Hwang off improved us a lot, Agbadou and Toti were great in defence. They brought on Gueye and he was a bit of a threat, particularly to Doherty but dealt with mostly well as a defensive unit. Joao Gomes performed excellently, but should have taken a shot a couple of times rather than looked for Cunha.
Second half we had a lot of chances should really be burying a couple. Munetsi throws himself about a lot, completely wiped out Batth at one point when Cunha tried to dink the keeper. Finishing wasn't good but we benefitted from someone who could win things in the air and was more physical. He's a different option. Sarabia the opposite and didn't add anything off the bench.
Managed the second half smartly, kept Blackburn quiet so it's a good win.
