He did have a couple of bright moments, but while he was on the pitch it was mostly coming down the opposite side with Wilson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little worried we might be a but lightweight in midfield after Ebou went off, but Thomo, Osborn and Goudmijn were effective. Feel as if we're going to look to play on the counter a lot this season, more so than last. 3-4-3 system works well on the counter. If you have quick attackers and some solid passers in midfield (Kenzo looks like he fits that bill). We just need to make sure the back 3 can be comfortable on the ball. Cashin and Nelson can do that. Nyambe seems capable too. Bradley is borderline for me for that position. Well done to the team today for a hard fought win in hot conditions. A good workout for all. Hopefully Adams injury isn't serious and he's back training asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eoghan1884 Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Best players - Kenzo, Jackson, Wilson, Tommo, Osborn, Bradley, Cashin. Players who looked off it - Yates, NML, CBT. everyone else was solid. jono and Magicman 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turk Thrust Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 I know that many on the forum have given sound excuses for CBT not being up to speed yet but I can feel it in my water (ooh missus) that he’s going to turn out to be a dud Magicman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job you stuck Jackson in the best players or you'd probably have racism accusations levelled at you too 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Contain Nuts Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 (edited) Polar opposite? Not a chance. In many ways he's the archetypal Warne signing. The physical characteristics are all there, he plays on instinct, always wants to create something, loves to run with the ball, to stretch teams on the break, clearly has at least some proficiency in his crossing and shooting which in a Warne system is usually enough because you sling in so many crosses the law of averages says you'll get some decent numbers. So far the only thing that seems contrary to him being a Warne player is a lack of application, which is massively surprising when his signing was made such a priority last season. Surely he can't be the same in training? At least today I thought he tried to get himself involved in the game, but he's just so easily nullified and dispossessed when not given space to charge into that you can usually see ahead of time when it's about to happen. To be fair he'd probably have had a better impact had he and Jackson's minutes been reversed. Edited July 19 by May Contain Nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On this showing Yates needs to bulk up cus there’s no way he can be the No 9 we need. But hey, it’s only his 2nd game, and it was almost 40 degrees, so I won’t be too reactionary just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bad Bob Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 I thought brown looked a threat particularly after he had some minutes on the pitch. I reckon he would have scored had he played 60+ minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really want to give your coffees to sky rather than dcfc? I paid my fiver for Matlock. Missed the Stockport game today as I was picking my lad up.
