While Macaulay Langstaff, Ruben Rodrigues, and Cedwyn Scott received much of the plaudits following their performances against Maidstone on Friday evening, boss Luke Williams identified his midfield pairing of Geraldo Bajrami and Matty Palmer as key to Notts County remaining top of the National League table.
It was a brilliant weekend for the Magpies, seeing the sides below them drop points whilst opening up a three-point gap at the summit of the table after 14 games of the season.
In what was a comfortable performance under the lights at Meadow Lane, the Notts boss was keen to highlight the performance of the two central midfielders, explaining that they gave his side a platform to go and score the goals their possession merited.
