1. Whitfield. Whenever he gets the ball you know it's not going to be wasted and he may well create danger. Being able to cross with his left and shoot with his right is a full-back's nightmare. I think I only recall once his control, passing, shooting wasn't perfect where there was a little misunderstanding over a short pass. Btw for our 3rd he went to take a long ball on his foot and it flicked up against his hand accidentally (is that a free kick these days?), but as Wrexham were gifted a goal-resulting corner and got away with a clear pen (all 3 things in front of me), we were still owed a goal
The other 10 of them
Although despite the praise Nemane's been getting I still found him frustrating. His pace over first few yards running at teams with the ball is great for causing panic, but often it ended up with him running into someone or the pass going to the opposition - unlike Whitfield. He was also on the edge of their area with the ball to shoot but again not the same end product as Ben. He has the natural assets, if he can improve. Having said that, although he's never going to win many headers, I do feel confident with him tracking back as he works hard as extra cover and no-one will go past him for pace.
