    These are pretty crap but loving our pressing and workrate considering it's the first game of pre season

    Mayenda scores the pen

    Number 37 for them is probably the worst player I have ever seen on a pitch.

    Good own.

    We're looking good. If this is what RLB can do when he's training them on his own, can't wait to see how we play when he gets a team behind him!

    It was 3-4 when we played them a year ago so this bodes really well going into next season

    Shape is better. Press is better. Intent is better. Players seem into it. Of course it’s poor opposition but as a first step? Pretty good indeed

    As everyone has said previously, poor opposition but Mayenda, Mundle and Aouchiche look good

    The corners are much better which obviously isn't affected by the opposition.

    Well worked goal for Adil.

    I know it's only pre season but can't help thinking how good we look

    5 zip. Sheilds are much worse than last year. Wonder if this was one of the reasons why SKP was getting frustrated. They have youth but they look no where near semi pro level.

    Plus we have played a strong team, makes the gap look even bigger than it should.

    Think Mundle has ended any chance of the trialist right back getting a contract:emoticon-0140-rofl:

    Mundle definitely can. I thought he would be canny with a year experience. Looks a natural Clarke replacement for me.
