Pre-Season

Completely missed the 3rd for Hannover!

 

Not sure Pinto's defensive positioning is much better than Whittaker's, but he had the pace to get back there and sort things out.

 

If only we had another striker to put on.

 

Wes again

 

Brilliant goal from Wes, 34 year old our best player this afternoon by far

 

And another from Wes! He has looked really impressive! Great inter play with Jerome and another composed finish

 

Wes makes it 3-2! Has he spent the summer rounding 'keepers or something? Makes it look effortless again. Jerome with the assist.

 

Play Wessi up front!!!!
2-3

 

Definitely look less shaky with Pinto on instead of Whittaker. Still lacking a bit of bite in midfield though

 

Brady may not be the only Irishman in canary colours whose stock continues to rise
Go Wessi

 

Wes still running like a teenager !

 

Great save from Ruddy but awful defending all the same

 

Credit where it's due, decent stop by Ruddy then. How we have a man free at our back post is another question though.

 

Dorrans, the new midfield 'beast'. And not a head bandage in sight

 

Great move there but usual finish by Naismith

 

Great play Dorrans again, clever touch from Wes (who else?) and Naismith wasteful again.

 

Stunning move involving (gulp) Dorrans, Wes and Naismith. Deserved a goal

 

Hannover player takes one in the nuts !

 

Is this the same Naismith as Everton had? It's a shame the chant "Are you Ricky van Wolfswinkel in disguise?" isn't more catchy.

 

Based on that dive, "Are you Andy Johnson in disguise?" might be more appropriate.
