    As does Gelhardt him and Palmer both did it first half but they were trying to be ‘clever’ which I don’t mind . They just need to know when to play a simple one to keep it and when to take a risk . This is not criticism it’s just what I’d like to improve .

    1. Lundstrom - good going forward and in defence. Some excellent passing .
    2. Gelhardt- a pocket dynamo , got us going with the first goal . Always looking to open up their defence. Was surprised to see him subbed .
    3 . Giles- another promising display , he was a constant threat down our left and put in some decent crosses .
    Good displays from MacBeast and Palmer who faded 2nd half .
    It was match when on another day see us 4 nil up at halftime .Their main threat just seemed to be the long throw . We got there in the end but it should have been easier .
    Well done boys
    Come on City

    And I feel bad for leaving Palmer out. Surely his best game in a city shirt. Drameh and Ndala were excellent too.

    Nods to nearly everyone. Still much to improve on, but there's a lot to be optimistic & excited about.

    in fact all of them they all played as a team that has totally transformed since last season they all have confidence in what they are doing.

    Lundstrum - I didn’t realise he could pass a football like that. Never really tired either.

    Mcburnie- Propwr centre forward for this league. Lovely first touch.

    Hughes- never stopped. Dominant and energetic.

    Giles - Terrific crosses all afternoon
    Mcburnie - involved in all 3 goals
    Palmer - thought he ran the show, particularly first half

    Several others could have been top 3 - just a really good all-round performance

    To think that in around June we were whining about paying Giles wages and where could we possible recoup some of the outlay and palm him off.. he's been bloody excellent alongside another 100% improver in Drameh...
