About fitness and giving all our new players a chance to play together in something more like a competitive game than a training session. Hopefully to gel properly by the time the season starts 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. That left back conveyerbelt we've got going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRERE Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 Have to agree RE Pring. Thought he looked good. He had few family members sat next to me, it took his mum a while to realise which player he was though! Saikou Janneh looked decent too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before you’ve ever seen him play there? 1 hour 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. At last JD waited til after he’d seen him play. Weimann is not a back to goal, hold-the-ball-up striker, he’s one to run off the shoulder, or come from deep. Don’t expect him to be a Famara. 1 hour ago, Cov 77 said: Strike force that is actually two midfielders , at best number ten’s, god only hope we bring another proper striker Two forwards, probably a better description, but not out and out strikers. 1 hour ago, Lympsham Red said: Weimann is a striker and Paterson is very much an advanced attacking midfielder/forward.

It is a friendly, it was not good and there are still questions about the squad. Mmm! 57 minutes ago, JamesBCFC said: 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. Perhaps try reading your own posts again. Presumably you also thought Wilbraham was never a striker before he came to us? After all, he didn't get lots of goals.

Imagine giving a player a chance, and not just writing them off because of numbers on Wikipedia. What a novel idea that would be, eh? Come on James he had his chance that's a few pre seasons friendlies he's had. How much of a chance do you want to give him? Surely you're not suggesting we play him in some league games before making judgements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmersonsRed Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 Was interesting today, Weimann looked horrific, hopefully gets up to speed in next couple of weeks. Liam Walsh tidy on the ball but off of it is a bit headless, works hard but tends to dive in and get beaten easily. Korey Smith a class act today. He is really good. Webster and Baker looked solid enough, as did Pisano in the first half. Their number 8 was superb. Ginger lad in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MelksRed Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 Average game today....thought there were promising moments as well as a few scary ones (ie walking through our defence). That said, game time was gained for the majority of our players (there were plenty of Subs)....no need to worry yet.....looking forward to Bournemouth......that will give us a better idea.....

Phileas Fogg Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 I know people are only commenting on what they’ve seen, but I’m amazed to come on here to see posters seemingly drawing conclusions from what is essentially a training game. At this stage, players are getting fit. There’s basically nothing good or bad you can read into a friendly this early into pre-season. After the pre-season training camp when the bulk of the fitness work is compete you can probably tell a bit more from friendlies, but definitely not yet.

I’m amazed anyone could make that judgement from that game. He was our best player that night, looked lightning, created his own chances etc. Some people must watch the game so differently, or look at the result (0-1 caught on the break late on), see Kodjia didn’t score, and base it on that.
