    My main takes from last night.
    I like Talbi. Adingra good in flashes. We need another wide option that’s goal focused.
    We need physicality. We looked like kids at times and the reports say we were the same at the weekend. A more physical left back will help, as will Xhaka and Hull were big but we pretty physical but we need some more players capable of that.
    We can’t rely on Mayenda. We need a striker the next level up. Is Wilson injured?

    My main take is we need a couple of defenders, and a partner for Mayenda, if we continue as of late the lad is finished,
    the shape and construction of the team is all wrong to make the best use of him imo., and I reacon we have seen the last of Zak and Nectar , which indicates we will be signing soon. Good news all round. Other than that I cant add anything more to your comments that are, imo spot on. <ok>

    Just read the whole thread, wow. Emotions can get high, but there was definately some deliberate winding up.

    Don't climb on your high horse and claim the victim if you are doing the same thing as your accusing someone else of.

    Calling for mod intervention was petty school kid stuff.

    Now, onward to the next game.

    Average first half spoilt by school boy error. Good to see Talbi (sp) show up and great passing move for good goal. Second half descended into a poor performance which due to the number of subs was always going to reduce this to a pre-season warm up. My worry is we need to be on it either this Saturday or next.

    New signings and the return of the injured would be a welcome improvement.

    Hhhaaa'wwwwaaaaayyyyyy the lads

    Mayenda did ok in the same system last year mind. He just doesn’t look at the races so far this pre season. We need a level up version so he has the space to develop and not feel pressured. Not sure about Le Fee in that 10 role either. He’s better dropping deep. Admittedly when he did he provided a delightful assist for them.

    Well it give me a good laugh <laugh>

    And I don't mean that detrimental to prehab.
    I haven't got a problem with either of you.
    There's an old saying I learnt from my parents. "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me". :emoticon-0148-yes:<laugh>


    Anyway, disappointed with the loss but it's only pre season.

    Everything looks so positive off the pitch but i cant help feeling deflated after another loss following on from Hearts.
    People can keep saying its only a friendly all they want, but we had another multi million pound team playing again last night and we shouldnt be getting beat off Hull City.

    Know where you're coming from. The new lads can't necessarily put in 8 out of 10 performances straight away though. They are very talented but need some time to get used to a new club, team mates, coaches etc. Then there is all the mundane off the field stuff to get to grips with. The lads who have been here a while also need to get used to playing with new players. It will hopefully start to click more soon.
