JoeAman08 Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 I know only preseason but my god we look bamg average. Possibly being asked to manage the game or something like that but very sloppy on our part. A few things Walsh clearly has that class about his play. Wants to get forward mostly. Just takes unneccessary risks on the ball or going for a tackle he is probably not the favourite for. Needs that experience to get that better decision making. Probably needs a loan but think we need his quality too. Maybe have to take the good with the bad with him as he learns on the fly. O’Dowda when he ends up central is absolutely scary for the defense. I’d try and find a way to get him there more often. Also looks more comfortable on the left than he does on the right. Hunt had a bad half with some easy passes. Still too early to judge? Maybe many were sloppy but he was the pick of the worst offender imo. Also called Nicky Hunt when he was subbed off.

Didn’t think that but did take a knock and I know the staff are conscious of getting ice on knocks like that quickly. So could be. Tbh Dowling doesn’t look out of place there.

Pretty much how I’ve seen it. Can’t believe that from Downsy. What an idiot. Weimanns final ball looks pretty poor so far. But think Webster looked pretty good. Not sure if Paterson can play Bobbys role this season. Be a big mistake if we try and go with that from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCRED Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 Weimann - headless chicken Watkins - looks ok Webster - Looks good on the ball KS, O’Dowda and JP running the game and we look dangerous when attacking but need a focal point up front as Weimann can’t get a kick Baker looks disinterested Walsh thinks he’s Iniesta and needs to stop trying the worldly pass and flicks/tricks in our half Shrewsbury look a half decent side and can see why they did well last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carey 6 Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 Changed this half, Pring left back, Pisano CB. Looks to me like we’ve gone 4-4-2. Watkins & O’Dowda either wing & Weimann & Paterson up top. Max is in goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cov 77 Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 3 minutes ago, JonDolman said: From what I see pisano is as poor left back as he is right back. Hunt surprised me with how badly he played first half. Strike force does not look right. We only look dangerous on the break, Weimann does not hold it up at all for a number 9, he has to do better. Walsh looks like he will be quality, works his socks off, but clearly not there yet. Webster and Smith 2 that are a class above so far. Strike force that is actually two midfielders , at best number ten’s, god only hope we bring another proper striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weimann is a striker ?

Read the post properly that would be a novel idea ? So a player sees himself as a striker, but you know better? You said he's not a striker, not that he didn't play there. You said he's a midfielder.

After all, he didn't get lots of goals. And those easily edited articles on Wikipedia that don't tell the whole story are infallible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way too early to say that I know, but he just looked amazing when he came on for second half. Did not expect that from him, as had him down as one that would end up making it in the non league until now. Very good 45 mins i agree. . Settled in very easily .
