When was the last time before this period that Holden and team had any proper time in between games to work on tactics, shape or strategy? November? Training ground was closed wasn't it? So not even that international break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alessandro Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 It’s a good first half. First 10 minutes superb, energetic, committed - banging in crosses and shots and putting their defence and keeper under pressure. Martin and Fam full of energy, press and offering options. Adelakun improved from Pompey but came off the boil as half went on. KP - fantastic to have someone actually happy on the ball in the oppositions third. Mawson and Kalas - huge difference. Hunt and Rowe getting forwards well. Vyner centre mid working. Sitting, blocking, tidying up and a couple of great passes. Preston still look a threat at times - but we’ve largely kept them quiet so credit to Holden for getting it right tactically so far. Still want us to just take a little bit more care with the ball at times and fancy Preston will lift their game second half... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Much much better. Gonna need a second goal though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerseybean Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 First 45 minutes in a nutshell: decent opening 15 minutes from us, then a neutral period, however, PNE have grown into the game and shut out our early dominance, while at the same time we have slipped into some of our poor habits e.g. giving it away fat too easily and lacking forward movement. 1-0 is unlikely to be the final score.

cityexile Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Decent half overall. Started with some real energy and intent. Preston a bit of a spell in last 15. Much more enjoyable to watch than previous weeks, even allowing for the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old_eastender Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 HT 1-0 Excellent first 20 mins, but have got a little sloppy since especially giving the ball away cheaply when we get it in their half. Adelkun our weak link, looks like a rabbit in the headlights when given the ball anywhere near their goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Exile Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Really enjoyable watch on a miserable January afternoon. Could do with a second (to cancel out the penalty they'll doubtless get) but that was an impressive first half performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hocca Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Not bad, tailed off a bit towards end of the half. I want him to succeed but Adelakun just isn’t very good and I’m not sure how he’s walked straight back into the starting 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prinny Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 I cannot believe Preston let us get up the pitch for free early on. And credit to us, we made them pay. Nagy pressed, Mawson (iirc) stepped up and that's the passage of play that led to the goal. Second half of the first half is how i expected the game to go. But this time we have a goal.
