    Friendly match. Dont think O9 or Hume would have held off in a league game.

    Was more how Hume left his position and created the space that is the issue

    Just a friendly and things have dropped a bit but Hjelde looks a lot more comfortable at CB than at LB

    Only saw some of the game but enjoyed it, we def seem to pass it with more pace now which is great

    Thought hjelde looked good when he came on, capable of passing out from the back at pace, always been a fan of his since watching him on loan at ross county so hopefully he kicks on

    Jewi came on at LB, showed some nice positional play tbh so wonder if theyll try n turn him into one - likely was just playing there to get mins

    Enjoyed that. Can see the progression from last weekend already, especially with the patterns of possession and the out of possession shape.

    Rigg and Mayenda my particular stand outs, thought Hjelde looked good when he came on also.

    Mayenda making an impression 2 games straight is a massive plus.

    I was wondering who that was at LB, looked decent but couldn’t figure out who it was didn’t have any sound.

    We don’t ponder on the ball as much which is good to see, interested to see how we go when le bris has had even more time to put his stamp on things

    Yeah he showed glimpses, overlapped mundle a few times and dropped into shape quickly

    Got caught once on the ball but i thought he did pretty well

    another good kick-a-bout for the lads and forest put plenty of effort in to give the lads a good test.

    the 'game plan' seemed more to try and soak up some pressure rather than trying to take any control in the game, or maybe that is just how the game panned out...in that heat every one of them did well.

    Another good run out for the lads.

    Roll on the proper games
