West Ham woe and why Millwall are team to beat - McLean's EFL takeaways
Final Score EFL pundit Aaron McLean reflects on the highs and lows of Saturday's action.
Aaron McLean, a Final Score pundit and ex-player, provides his takeaways following West Ham's disappointing start to the Championship season. West Ham, who were relegated from the Premier League last season, have struggled to adapt to the new league. McLean believes the team needs significant improvements in mentality and personnel if they hope to improve their position.
Charlton, one of only two teams in the second tier with two wins from their first two games, are looking to build on last season's success. Millwall, who beat Norwich on Saturday, are considered the team to beat by McLean due to their solid defense, aggression, and goal-scoring ability. Wolves, who have not lost an away game in 489 days, impressed with a 3-1 victory over Preston and are seen as a strong contender for the top of the table.
Leicester, after winning the Premier League title a decade ago, now find themselves in League One and lost at home to Burton Albion, struggling to adapt to the new league. Bristol Rovers, on a 10-match losing run, have turned things around under experienced boss Steve Evans, who has transformed the team and secured their first three points of the season.
