Millwall boss Rowett: Jed Wallace better not score too many crackers before January transfer window!

BY RICHARD CAWLEY

Gary Rowett has described Jed Wallace’s winner in Saturday’s 1-0 win at Swansea as “fantastic” – and joked he didn’t want too many more spectacular strikes before the January window from the Millwall attacker.

Wallace has scored seven goals and got two assists this season.

He produced a fine free-kick finish to secure victory in Wales – the Lions’ first success on the road.

Wallace has been involved in five of the six goals scored by Millwall since Rowett took charge, three goals and two assists.

Rowett said: “Jed has got superstar quality but also works so hard for the team.

“He said after 85 minutes: ‘I’ve got to come off – I’ve gone’. That is what I want – players who have run themselves into the ground.

“It’s another fantastic finish from Jed. He’d better not score too many before January!”
