cinker Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Thanks Schutzhund. One question. Was grant Smith playing wide on the left or more midfield? Just curious as he was a cemtre mid with Swindon but we had him playing on the left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBCFCUK Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 According to the main site, says he played centre midfield! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozo Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Yeh I had a free afternoon too so wanted to check out how GJ might feel about our underacheivers and of course the trialists.The first half didn't see to many chances. Murray got well involved and did all but get in crosses. The reason Fofana didn't get too involved was because the play was mostly down the right. He hugged the touchline though and when he did get the ball he invariably took his man on with pace. He too failed to get many crosses in but linked up well with left-back fortune. Fofana is worth another look by all means, bit of a goodridge/Gavin/ben type. City are desperate for a left-winger so he has a chance doesn't he.Harley and G. Smith started in centre mid and both were sloppy early on, and most of the play was on the flanks so they drifted a lot. I find it hard to judge Smith - he has a good touch and can pass, and is fairly tall, but he doesn't have pace or athleticism, bit of a tinnion without the glorious, measured long-balls. He played the Wilkshire role and got forward, got in the box on occasion, hence his two goals. The first just before HT from a lovely move and a nice glancing header to score. His second came from good wing-play, ball came in and he was unmarked to firmly side-foot home. Good brace but he needs to dominate midfield more. Harley was hot and cold throughout but his goal was a lovely 30 yard floated side footer. As is said above, Carey and Keogh (apart from very early error in his own box, nearly put striker through on goal) were good at centre back and Basso was very vocal, did the job well, but a couple of very shakey kicks second half.Kevin James couldn't be judged on today, came on when the game was wide-open, did the simple things well, made a couple of minor errors. All in all very good.Also Bridges was very good. He does look like the typical lazy stroller when City are defending, but every attack he got involved. His touch is pure class and he provided others with some very good through-balls and set-ups. If he, and G Smith were more athletic I'd have more faith in them.

Rich-TWSC- Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Before y'all get carried away... I've just observed the line-ups and surely the fact Swindon were playing only 3 players with decent experience and 2 of them aren't even fully fit has to come into this performance?Of course you were going to win.

Guest REDCIDERARMY Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Went down myself was a good performance good football played at pace once again,I thought Murray looked great and the midfield of harley and smith got stronger as the game went on,Smith scored two goals from midfield and looked better in a central role and harley I think could still be the pick of all the youngsters he surely should now be in the squad his passing and shooting is fantastic and I know wilkshire and skuse have been playing great they have lacked goals in smiith and harley I think they have more goals in them.
