Djordje Petrovic is grabbing his chance with both hands.
He was great against last night, with one save from Matty Cash in particular standing out. The Poland international cut inside and hit it well, but Petro used all his length to tip it wide.

This was not his only good save of the night, and his emergence as a really viable option has been one of the most important features of an otherwise pretty dull and at times dire spell.
If he keeps playing like this, we can confidently say we’ve found our number one, and that’s a massive boost.
