Decent performance, which is the least that is needed against a league one team, or that's where the academy players will spend their career, out of position yes....but basics of being a good footballer will still be evident.
 
I know he is not a left back, but I didn't think he played particularly well. Bajkowski said it well, not on the same wavelength as the rest of the lads.

He was joint with Jack in making the most big chances with 3, at LB.

Won 5/7 ground duels
Won 3/4 tackles
Recovered the ball 3 times.

It wasn't as amazing as the Salford game , but we scored like 7 goals so not fair of me or anyone to use that.

But even more important for a defender, didn't make mistakes, and we need that right now.

I thought he was poor today mate, his passing was awful and he seems to need too much time decision making, he is much better than today's performance, he needs a chance in central midfield, it's a very big ask for a young player to play out of position when he hasn't even been bedded into the team.
My belief is he can play at our level but,not at left back, I feel we would have been better off if Mfuni was given this place today, he is a much better LB than Nico even though he is a CB, just my opinion for what it's worth.

89% pass accuracy, joint top in big chances created, won most of his physical duels and tackles.

Yet he was awful? Yeah that makes sense...

You can say you want him to be a CM, I do too, but don't add that he played awful at LB, that's not just an opinion, you are objectively wrong.

That’s fine if he isn’t on the same wavelength, he’s a kid. The likes of Mcatee and Oreilly have to play consistently. Trying to prove themselves with the odd game every 10 games is very hard going.

I thought he grew into the game and, by the time he went off he was one of our top 3 players. Good game.

Accuracy of passing doesn't mean your passing or choice of passes is good, have your opinion but please don't misinterpret mine.

I didn't, I said way more things than just accuracy of passing. Did you just gloss over that he made the joint most chances.

Your assessment is objectively wrong.

I'll leave you with yourself, sorry for having an opinion.

No need to apologise my friend, I am not offended by opinions nor persuaded in this instance to change mine.
