Although we have got nine points from the last four games we are still playing well below the level of the first third of the season but seeing Wright back and scoring will have given both players and fans alike a big boost. We now need to build upon this modest run particularly against the teams in the top half of the table which is almost a mini league of its own.
Wrexham are on a good run of form themselves being unbeaten in seven games before losing narrowly one nil away to Notts County on Good Friday, a run which has seen them get into the last play off position. By some accounts, they completely outplayed Notts in the first part of the game but crucially did not score, possibly due to their top scorer Kwame Thomas being ruled out injured for the remainder of the season further compounded by his replacement Jordan Ponticelli coming off with a hamstring injury after 28 minutes – a sight we are all too familiar with ourselves....
All of a sudden we have got a lot of players back and there is real competition just to make the match day squad and Johnson mentioned this in the yellow army podcast where he now has the means to rotate and rest certain players to keep the team fresh for the run in. The Hall substitution against Woking may be a case in point and Moxey does not need to be rushed back or played twice a week although his vision and passing adds something different to Law.
I suspect Wright and Kimpioka will be our main strike force for the rest of the season either as a pair or on their own once both are fully match fit as they make their way back from long term injury. Hopefully Andrews is now sufficiently recovered from illness to start on the left wing to balance the midfield as Little looks like a fish out of water there.
Happy Easter everyone and here’s hoping for three points on Monday. 😀🤞
