Three goals, three points, a clean sheet, up to the top of the group and Claude is off the mark. Great evening.
Impressive win for Beer Sheeva at the San Siro, they were denied for a third by the cross bar late on. Great result for us of course. Martina really impressed. VVD looking more like our future captain each and every game. Some encouraging runs off the defenders shoulders and a couple of much needed goals for Austin. Now let's put this all to good use against the Swans on Sunday.
Thoughts: Austin needs to start on Sunday. Martina deserves to start on Sunday. Romeu was brilliant in the second half. Virgil is pure class. Going forward the diamond is starting to work. But when the opposition has the ball we have too many gaps in midfield. Great to see our strikers scoring.
Great result and just what we needed for confidence ! A few observations: Great that the team played so cohesively considering the number of changes Martina's cross for Austin's goal was sumptuous and he deserves to start on Sunday van Dijk is perfect for this formation Long needs to find his shooting boots from last year! When the game opens up and more forward passes are available this formation works well But still too many backward passes to retain possession and not enough shots Something wonderfully positive to build on for our next home game.
