Millwall manager Neil Harris had high praise for defender Danny McNamara following their recent 0-0 draw against West Brom. McNamara, who made his first league start of the season, played a key role in Millwall’s solid defensive display, earning them their third consecutive draw.

Despite West Brom having the majority of possession, they struggled to break down Millwall’s defense, with goalkeeper Lukas Jensen rarely being tested. When asked about McNamara’s performance, Harris acknowledged the defender’s patience and hard work, highlighting his exceptional one-on-one defending skills.

Harris also spoke about the decision to start Femi Azeez, who made his first league start of the season alongside McNamara. He explained that both Azeez and Mihalio Ivanovic are still adjusting to the demands of Championship football, having previously played at lower levels.

While Azeez showed promising qualities in the match, Harris believes that he has the potential to succeed at Millwall once he fully adapts to the Championship level. Overall, Harris expressed confidence in the abilities of both McNamara and Azeez, praising their dedication and skills on the field.
