As others have mentioned, Stewert grew into the game and was very good defensively.
He was poor with the ball at his feet though and always looks rushed on the ball. Was not an air of confidence at all.
Watson is an all round better CB in my opinion. I’m not basing that just on yesterday, I’ve watched Stewert many times over the years.
Not saying Stewert is a bad player at all, just that I prefer Watson in a back 3.
Stewart did make a good block in the middle of the goal in the first half.
He can't pass but you've got to remember that, when at Wycombe, he would have been used to just lumping it up field. That's not our style so he'll have to get the hang of it.
Pleased to have another option at CB anyway and the continued good form of Tucker too
