Notts County boss Luke Williams was quick to praise Macaulay Langstaff following his first professional hat-trick against Dagenham and Redbridge, but had a special mention for full-back Aaron Nemane, who was a major threat all afternoon during their 5-0 victory over Dagenham and Redbridge at the weekend.
The Magpies found themselves three goals up at half-time, with Langstaff grabbing two goals on they way to his maiden hat-trick ball, whilst Cedwyn Scott tapped home his second goal of the season in what was a dominant first half performance.
But during the first half, the impetus of attacking with their full-backs was clear, with both Adam Chicksen and Nemane a major component in the build-up to Notts' forward play.

The pair combined for Langstaff's opener, with Nemane's teasing cross finding the head of his opposite full-back, with the ball eventually landing to the feet of the Notts number nine to swivel and find the breakthrough their performance merited.
And just moments before Scott doubled the Magpies' lead, Nemane was involved once again, sending a stinging shot agonisingly close, only to be denied by the Daggers crossbar.
But with the Elliott Justham's goal still reverberating, there was no rest bite for the hosts as Nemane picked himself up and provided an assist for the second goal, an opportunity Scott simply could not miss.
It was a brilliant all-round performance from the 24-year-old, and Williams explained he was pleased with Nemane's contribution after giving him the confidence to back himself in the final third.
Speaking after the game Williams said: "I think we have got threats all over the pitch, and it is nice to see that Aaron believes in himself enough to take those chances on.
"We have maybe been asking him that question a little bit more to back himself in the final third and he did that.
"I think he was involved in more goals as well, so it is very pleasing to see that from Aaron."
And Nemane's impressive performance was also rewarded with an appearance in the National League's team of the week alongside Langstaff, something he will hope to be a regular occurrence as the season progresses.
