Things I’d noted so far (I know some of these have already being mentioned): Tetteh is not a winger. Doing a decent job, but should have been up top next to Delap. Delap goes to ground to easily. It might win us free kicks, but I don’t like it. He does move towards goal quickly though, very promising. Longman is back to his worst. I root for the lad as he seems to have an attacking mindset, but I don’t think he’s anywhere near ready. I actually don’t like Seri and Simons playing together. Much prefer Traore next to Seri. Simons isn’t bad, just a bit safe IMO.
I think we can see why a LB and a winger were the clubs priority.. dont know who the winger might be or off we're in for one..
Fleming unfortunately isn't good enough he spends more time on his backside than on his feet. Greaves looks very assured in this game and last, I think Macca has his work cut out to keep his place. Tetteh wasted on the right wing, he is better playing narrower on the left.
You can't just bury your head in the sand and hide behind it being a friendly. We're seeing the same things happening as last season, which isn't surprising as it's the same side apart from Delap.
Longman is one of those players who 90% of the time frustrates you to high heaven, its the 10% that threatens to do something spectacular, but it doesn't happen often enough. TBH...I can't see him hanging around much past 31st of August.
I’m not burying my head, friendlies mean nothing. I’ve seen good pre-seasons followed by dross and ****e ones followed by promotion.
Got through all that for the first game mate, it just sent me on multiple links to get on the pay one.
Hope Will Jarv takes this chance, rated higher than Longman by players… just not taken his chance yet.
One of the best preseasons I can remember was when Hateley took over. After not losing and having wins over clubs from higher divisions he declared we have set our standards and now we have to maintain them. Then we went to Mansfield for the first game of the season…
Interesting that Covil hasn't made an appearance so far. I saw him in a training video the other day so he's presumably fit...
