Warren Hobhead Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I won't be making assessments personally. It's a pre season friendly. It's totally about fitness at this stage. Having said that, I was going to pop along to the game but something cropped up. Watching that first half, I'm kinda glad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coneheadjohn Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I am loving the coverage though. This is brilliant for us,keep it up dcfc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Perfect on android tablet and chrome on my pc... shame about the game. Davies, Nugent and Blackman doing pretty well, but maybe Blackman also making Forsyth's job a bit more difficult. Looking at line ups/potential signings there's probably only Davies and Nugent, then Wisdom and Forsyth likely to be first choice anyway so not a real problem, the others would probably look better surrounded by better players/in a balanced formation. Russell looking indifferent in preseason so far. We'll concede one second half with Hanson there. Looking forward to watching TME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davies looks solid and Blackman bright. Russell struggling and Bent just disinterested. Nugent working hard but no support. Wisdom is a unit but over-committing at times leaving Hanson exposed. At least he was trying to get something going. Their players are pretty physical ( but fair) and we don't appear to like it! Fans causing trouble in away end (embarrassing .) Looking forward to second half - bring on the Wardrobe. Our fans being d*******s @angieram? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Russell and Bryson have a decent chance too. That's half the team. I'd say 5/6 could yes, i was more getting at the fact that we'd have a much stronger 11 than what we put out.

Sexydadbod Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I don't know why people only criticise Butterfield for his "lack of forward passing" whilst Bryson completely gets away with doing the same. In fact the stats from last season show that a higher % of Bryson's passes were backwards or sideways than Butterfield's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRam Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 This group of attackers are far superior to the first half's imo Mason Bennett has come on leaps and bounds in recent months. Weimann looking really sharp again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want Bryson breaking beyond the forwards. If he's doing that, he's not going to be making forward passes, and if he's not making forward runs, the manager's doing it wrong. Butterfield sits much deeper, so forward passes should be a much bigger part of his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All he did last season was to stand right next to the centre back, retrieve the ball and then knock it sideways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence "the manager doing it wrong" - it was clearly a tactical decision from the Pearson and Rowett, not anything of Bsyon's choosing. When he came back into the team under McClaren he was back to his old self (the goal against Leicester being the obvious example). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
