Didn't get out of first gear tonight. Pozeulo was a little frustrating at times getting in Michu's way and vise versa, but boy does he have something about him. Looking forward to seeing him develop over the next season or two A professional performance tonight, and more importantly, some players got some much needed game time. Bring on Utd
A good overall performance although I thought our play in the final third was poor. Well done lads. Job done
Still don't rate De Guzman, just a lazy player and I hate that in a team of triers. Routledge rightly taken off, was trying to be too clever on a few occasions, and how many times do our wingers need a boot up the arse, that when Michu of Bony get the ball, to give them some width and run past them, instead they just stand there waiting for the ball, no, get forward and support. A good result, but very frustrating for me, too many mistakes, that should be sorted before we play United, instead some lazy moments got the better of our players and that for me isn't good enough when you have fans spending all that money travelling. Pozuello will need some game time to learn his role, too many times was found wandering when we needed someone to support Jazz, which leads me onto Jazz, for someone who got little support from the guy who was supposed to be in front of him, the lad done very very well.
Well done boys. An overall good performance. The necessary job is done. A clean sheet once again. MOTM Chico Flores IMO. If we should be a bit critical of the performance though, I would like that the players are working harder for each other. Too often some of the players were isolated in midfield and in the attack. But no doubt we got an excellent result, and no players are injured here before the Man.U game.
Defence looks rock-solid which is always a good sign. Jazz more than ample right-back cover. Canas looked good after a shakey start. No shots on target in two games from a team that beat a Scottish Premier League side 9-0.
Jazz was solid, comfortable and in control of his position and role. Every confidence of the lad in the Prem. Should be in the Wales squad.
Everything thats already been posted , All squad players will have had just about 90 minutes of competitive football leading up to the start of the season.it wasn't a game we needed to win but just control which I thought we did without too much pressure on ourselves. We did look unbalanced going forward but defensively solid which was pleasing considering the 4 changes of personnel . Job done
Oh I do hope we get a German team is we get to the league part. Especially if were away during Octoberfest!!!!
