Remember we lost the first game of the season 3-2 at home to Watford. One game does not maketh a season. Russell Martin getting beaten to the ball so easily by Edwards is a concern though.
Imo the starting line up was wrong from the get go and my worries about Adams isn't going to go away any time soon. But this is the first game of the season, so I guess it's too soon to be worrying. Just look like we've still got our same old problems from last season.
Im starting to wonder if Redmond really IS as good as we thought? I know he is young but his decision making has shown very little sign of improving :-/ So far Olsson, Whittaker, Garrido, Redmond and Bennett have ALL been well short of par. Johnson is another one who is literally only there to run about and tackle. He has little to no footballing skill :-/
Must say the team looks disjointed? It's early days but a lot needs to gel and quick. I really hope NA gets it sorted before we play the binners.
Garrido showing why he fell out of favour. No reason to go after the breaking player! Just hold him up!
I may have to ride shotgun next time Rich goes to the pain clinic because this is excruciating to watch.
Van La Parra MOTM for me. Looked really good, tormented our left side and got the assist. Plenty of tricks. Astute signing from Jackett
All we need now is for Garrido to get sent off and we're proper ****ed at left back. How can he not have been moved on? Next match lafferty & Grabban need to start together with Redmond out wide. I don't think the pre season fiasco has helped NA pick his first eleven yet?
