    Talbi the only disappointment for me. Struggled to get into it.

    The rest very happy.

    Enjoyed that, we were a bit sloppy in the final 3rd and a couple of times defensjvely not tracking runners out wide - normal things for preseason tho

    Really impressed with the energy pace and tempo in the side. The midfield 3 in particular has me excited, very exciting 3 and we have 2 home grown prospects in Neil and Rigg thatll still fancy their chances of starting - that can only be a good thing

    Diarra looks a real talent to me.

    Enjoyed that. That midfield combination is working lovely, the pace of the front 3 is such a difference and defensively we look solid.

    Just pre season so not getting carried away but I hope everyones passport is in date for our 26/27 Conference League campaign:emoticon-0140-rofl:

    That’s a good impressive midfield 3, strong, mobile, quick with power. Exactly what we need this season. Love how they compliment each other already ! I can’t bloody wait for this season, we aren’t going to be the pushover everyone thinks we will be

    I'd be delighted if the new players had flair, as Enzo does ...

    ... but it's the way they all compete and fight for the ball then turn on the style that's encouraging.

    They certainly won't be giving the ball away to teams.
