theclothmonster 1,707 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Most of the talk will be about Alves but I was impressed with Cardoso, he's been the standout so far this pre season for me. gsa 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaffbear 4,096 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 We looked the part today and against inferior sides than Marseille I feel well start pumping sides .. .. look like a man side now who can handle themselves. delparlane and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ritchieshearercaldow 22,137 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Still no cohesion up front, a decent workout hopefully we can get it together by the time battle commences HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeHaw 513 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Happy with that tbh, only got to see the second half due to work. Hopefully this is just the start of the team gelling together. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanMK 4,670 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I think we were the better team for a majority of that game. They only really got a sniff in when Alves went off. Big man barely broke a sweat. HG5, Cobham and surfsup2 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueThunder 8,454 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 An excellent workout. Lots of positives. Still not sure about Pena and Morelos, but the others had decent games. The Dalcio excepted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still desperate for a cutting edge up front though. I'd cancel Dalcio's loan and use his wages for someone else. Good game, for a friendly.

dogtanian 252 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Decent result and a lot of positives to take from it but if it was a competitive game it would have been a different result altogether. Just need to be more clinical upfront if we aren't we will struggle this season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muz333 359 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Looked a lot more like a team today. It's a solid foundation anyway and with a clinical striker we'll be a very good team again soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben10 2,272 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Still no goals in this team. You could tell at full time that the team chemistry is zero. Maybe the manager should take them all out to get pished Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim beam 2,188 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Thought we did ok against a right good team lots still to work on like winning a header and pass and moving better but it was a good run out. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBearButt 3,627 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Miller is done, Wallace needs replaced and we look toothless upfront. I'd pay the million for walker and then if we can look for a decent striker on loan if need be. Happy with the performance overall though Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewaj3 1,446 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Just now, MrMckee said: Thought tav had a good game tbh! Windass no I thought tav was excellent. Made a number of good challenges. Was up and down the pitch some decent attacking play down that right hand side. Feel if candeias plays, it will give both he and tav more space. Thought Wallace and Tav looked a lot better than they have done recently. The concerns are still how we do against a team who put 10 behind the ball, can we break them down, can we provide service to our strikers? Kevin Thomson called it right when he was talking about the defence pushing up. We need to do that. If our defence sits deep, it limits the midfield, so hopefully the defence can hold a higher line this year. gsa 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWTC 2,247 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Huge improvement, which was badly needed. We look much more like a team now, and the changes to our style are now far more evident. Alves looked excellent and marshalled the defense well, Cordoso and Tavernier benefited in particular. Dorrans and Jack looked like a balanced pairing, and Niko looked good. Was impressed with the quality of delivery from Candieas, and Herrara looks like he'll cause defenses problems if he gets the right supply. Wallace looked stronger defensively, but was poor going forward. Skol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastEnclosureBear 2,919 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I was expecting a 3/4-0 to Marseille and a bit of a one sided match. I enjoyed that today. Glad I went.

ForeverAndEver 71,502 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Only seen 2nd half, wasn't great imo. Dalcio looks like a pint a Guinness. Vanoli, delparlane, HG5 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbroxBurnzy 484 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Very good performance today so over the moon with that ? But the same old problem is hanging around and that's our strikers not taking the half chances. if we had a natural goal scorer we would be slaughtering teams. delparlane and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
