Parkinson thrilled with Wrexham duo Marriott and Cleworth
- Published
Wrexham's impressive start to the League One campaign continued with a 2-0 victory over Peterborough United.
Max Cleworth and Jack Marriott both netted against Darren Ferguson's side as the Red Dragons moved up to second in the table having claimed 10 points from the 12 on offer so far this season.
And boss Phil Parkinson could not hide his delight with the impact of his goal scorers against the Posh.
"Mulls [Paul Mullin] isn't quite ready yet, he's getting there, that's the best he's felt when he came on today, I felt he was so sharp," said Parkinson.
"Jack and Ollie [Palmer] have got the shirts at the moment, the other players have got to wrestle them away from them.
"It was a real quality goal, great movement from Jack and a good finish.
"I keep saying to the front two, what we're pleased with at the moment is their work for the team, and key moments come on the back of that, and that's why we're winning games at the start of the season."
Cleworth's headed effort in the 39th minute was his second goal of the season.
And boss Parkinson feels the 22-year-old has the ability to play at an even higher level than League One.
"I'm obviously pleased with Max, he's got all of the attributes to play at this level and above because he's so athletic and so calm," added Parkinson.
"He's adding goals to his game as well which we always knew was there.
"He's got such a great leap on him and he's very difficult to mark on set plays and that was a great finish."
