Tonight's was a narrow and somewhat fortunate victory over one of the worst sides the Championship has seen in decades. I didn't see much evidence of character. I just saw some very poor football, especially by comparison to Sunday's performance.
We matched them for workrate in the second half, that was the only way we were going to get anything in my opinion. Barnsley were not that bad, just shit in the final third. They threw everything at it. There were no personal performances for us, everyone performed poorly, but the work rate made up for it. That's fine in my book.
