I’d have loved all 3 but would have taken a point before kick off... and definitely after 85 mins. Don’t think teams have sussed us... think this type of team will always be a challenge for us compared to the footballing sides.. and we’ve played a few on the bounce. ... and we miss pablo’s creative spark Test passed for me today
I was dreading this match, but delighted with the point. There were times we passed the ball well and I think if we'd had the full first team to pick from, we'd have won it. Last year we'd have lost and maybe gone on a ****ty run.
Looking forward to a review by someone who was at the game. A big part of our system is our off-ball work & you never get to see it on the tv. Hoping to hear that we didn't fall down too much in that area with our depleted squad. Got to say that I was surprised by Pontus at the end. He looked knackered. Wonder if doing his pre-season catch-up whilst playing is a bit too much.
He looks weak which is my child point.he has no strength about him he will fail with us im sure not got the nerve.
Nice and true comments and big ed would have been perfect today.saiz would have picked him out.dont agree about the squad it still lacks quality.the amount of money coming in the gate deserves better spending.
I'm not slating Roberts here, he makes good runs and gets himself in the right position to score, and even out-muscled a defender today to create a one- on- one opportunity. Problem is he seems to want to pass it into the net instead of putting his foot through the ball. He's only 19, and it was a big ask this afternoon in the worst possible atmosphere he'll face, but Roofe would have had 2. He will improve, no doubt, but I think he might benefit from a run in a L1/ L2 team to sharpen his finishing a la Mallik Wilks.
