Comment: Why Lewis Warrington's 'no-frills' style was key in Walsall win
Lewis Warrington keeps his game very simple, but his selfless style helped bring cohesion back to the Walsall midfield in their 2-0 win at Harrogate Town on Saturday.
The midfielder had started the past two games on the bench in the wake of a minor ankle issue, but Mat Sadler felt it was the prime time to reintroduce him to the XI in North Yorkshire.
Charlie Lakin had previously filled the void in the No 6 role: excelling in the 4-2 success at Newport County, before struggling in the 2-0 defeat against Colchester United seven days later.
The performance in the centre of the park was extremely dysfunctional against the U's and Sadler recognised that changes needed to be made.
Daniel Kanu opened the scoring with his seventh goal of the season in all competitions and Priestley Farquharson put the seal on the win with the Saddlers' second.
That powered Walsall back to the top of League Two and relieved concerns after a challenging period in recent weeks.
