Denbury Red Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 He starred today for Torquay scoring a hat-trick in the first 34 minutes. All three were good ‘strikers’ goals - finishing off from defensive errors and pouncing on loose balls. His work rate - especially in the first half when Torquay went in 4-0 up was superb. Jake Andrews was again solid, but Connor Lemonheigh-Evans had one of his best games for a while. Our other loanee - Opi Edwards came on with 10 mins to go and didn’t really have time to effect the game (good that he was back from injury). We need to keep an eye on Janneh as if he can keep finishing like he did today he has every chance of playing at a much higher level .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezo Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 A Torquay supporting friend told me its so unfair on the other teams - every game now they have 3 players that are better than anyone else in that league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It`s all about getting out of that league though for them - if they don`t get back to the National League straight away they will possibly go out of business. I don`t normally agree with `buying the league` but in this case the end justifies the means I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the few times I've seen Janneh,, he is the best of our Academy strikers. Try him in the first team later in the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their owner has realised they will die if they stay in the 6th tier so has stepped up a bit. Ultimately, it is Gary's experience coupled with the 4 City loanees that is making all the difference. Whether they'll get the escape velocity to walk the National League next year is another question.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
