This is very harsh on Bell, but I really like the Pring Mehmeti combo out wide, and can see them supplying Conway nicely. I'd like to see Sykes and McCrorie do the same on the right. Mehmeti's weight of pass has been top notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post IAmNick Posted July 18, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 18, 2023 Really disappointing. Game dragged so much it felt about 2 hours long for a start, and we noticeably took our foot off the gas after the 7th went in - if we keep that up in the league we'll be in trouble this year. Wells still can't get on the scoresheet which is a big concern, Scott took about 5m off his value with his poor attempts on goal, Vyner responsible for ANOTHER goal conceded, and Conway with a really lazy miss late on. Pearson needs to get into them ASAP. I know it's just pre-season but big issues already. 39 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malago Posted July 18, 2023 Report Share Posted July 18, 2023 Well I said Bell and Conway would score at least 20 goals this season. Only 14 to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything else is just pre season things surely? Fitness is the main goal, scoring a few is helpful obviously and let's get the defensive mistakes out there now before season starts. Conway can be as lazy as he wants after scoring 4 already right?? Big issues ahead...for me and my reading comprehension sorry!!! I'm going back to work instead of quickly reading threads.

Garland-sweden Posted July 18, 2023 Report Share Posted July 18, 2023 Two games and lot of goals, not good teams we met but anyway. We have many good players, the competition for the starting eleven is strong. Our team develops and Im optimistic for a good season, long time I have had that feeling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My worry is that City’s pre season results tend to be a bit like the pre match bit of the matchday thread on OTIB When everyone’s moaning about the team it usually means we go on and get a good result. And when everyone’s happy with the starting XI they let us down. Likewise, a good pre-season usually proves a false hope for a dismal season, whilst after a disastrous pre season we generally do well. On the other hand…..we’re doing things differently now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciderwithtommy Posted July 18, 2023 Report Share Posted July 18, 2023 That was nothing more, and possibly less, than a training exercise. We did everything we needed but the quality and intensity of opponents needs to go up a fair few notches to really gain any insight. Conway looks an absolute beast, if we get £25m for Scott and keep him, we could be in a great spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who lives in West Swindon, this result is great. Regarding loans to Swindon, I wouldn't do it based on the experience that their fans will jump on any mistakes a City loanee makes,and I'm referencing both Kadji and Jonny Smith. They have to hide their jealousy because we don't even acknowledge them as a rival but it soon comes to the fore on any little failing City show/have, which is probably not conjusive to a player in his first taste of pro-level football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
