Leeds are in the play off places Nillwall are in the relegation places I await the upbeat comments form the Nillwall contingent
I cant say it was a great game on the pitch, but I thoroughly enjoyed it all the same. Our defending stills needs work. Brighton had some right chances to score several whereby they have a clear shot on goal inside the area. Kenny was fantastic really. We could have lost this 5-2. Overal pleased with the performance though. I thought we looked good going forward, but still lack that bit of spark. I'm also more impressed with Poleon as he gets more games. He was only given a short run out at the end, but he's definitely useful and I'm thinking before long he might be this season Byram (who btw, I cant wait to get back!). Massive crowd of over 33K too
We're going to look very dangerous with Austin and Byram back. Not sure about Diouf, tends to slow the game down too much. Might be a good impact sub for the most part. Who knows, we'll see, but I wouldn't be too fussed if he left the club before the end of August in order to get 2 more effective players in. Still need a proper winger, hope Hall starts to shine or we get someone else in. Someone with real pace, although Poleon definitely looks capable of playing as a winger.
Was in the kop today McCormack defo MOTM for me was our biggest attacking threat all game. Kenny 8- Made some fantastic saves, distribution could of been better imho Pelts 7- Was overall good, defended well, got forward and helped out aswell Lees 6- Was decent could off done better for the goal Peace 5- Decent but quiet Warnock 6- Again overall decent, made some tackles Murphy 8- Scored the winner and controlled the midfield well, some nice passing, looks worth the dosh Green 6- Bit quiet but made some decent passes and got stuck in fairly well Tonge 7- Good runs forward, added bit of steel into it, looking fairly good compared to last season Varney 8- Was running rings around em, as ever some fantastic headers and great work ethic, good link up play McCormack 9 MOTM- Fantastic runs, great ball control, controlled our attack, good finish for the goal Poleon 7- Ran their defenders ragged, got himself into good positions, nearly scored Smith 7- Got some good headers in, got an assist apart from that quiet Drury 6- Took over from Warnock, didn't have to do much, got stuck in when he had tho. Fantastic crowd, think if we get a good result against Leicester we'll hit 30k again for Wednesday.
All this, and I was the fat fecker pulled out of the South Stand before the game and won two free flights in the draw/ question thingy. I might go to Italy!!!!! I congratulated David and Saleem (my new mates) on getting rid of the old cnut. Btw how many did Millwall hammer Yeovil by???
