bassettger 400 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Just confirmed if we do not get a new center back, center midfield and centre forward we will win the square root of zero. That squad is full of bang average pish. Goldson, Soutter, Davies, Devine, Raskin, Dowell, Lawrence, Wright, Dessers to name a few.

delparlane 5,977 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Missed the first half and all the goals. Seeing the highlights afterwards, their two goals were fucking woeful on our part. Blueshoff 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinnymate1690 773 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Thought lowry looked decent as well. At least tried a few different passes and tried to get it into the final 3rd quickly. Loads of concerns though . Big one being clements style of play, i'm still not sure what it is. Regardless of the players you have, you should still be able to put your style on things to a degree Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyal72 13,446 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 70% of this squad are still pish, and rather than addressing the big rebuild that the football department needed, this board went for another legacy project, and it bit them on the arse and made us homeless. Large chunk of our cash has probably gone on the stadium mess. esquire8 and BlueJacketRFC 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears r us 31,283 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Not going to be too downhearted after the first friendly of the new season, but we so need to get rid of players many of them started the game, and better ones coming in. I was glad to see some of the younger players showing up well in the second half. BlueJacketRFC and bornabear 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of the players you have, you should still be able to put your style on things to a degree Its pretty clear, I think. Get the ball forward as quickly as possible with direct play. Our problem, however, is that our passing and technique is pretty poor. If you have the right players, then that is very effective football. Find your man, keep the ball, get forward and into goalscoring positions. Clements teams scored loads of goals. We just dont have the players at the moment, unfortunately.

Central defence awful and Buttland at fault both goals, 2nd one was a howler. Dowell and Dessers anonymous. Raskin and matondo gash as was Lawrence bar his free kick goal. Sterling average. Jefte looked OK. Barron and Diomande did well. Danillo and Lowry looked better and sharper than those they replaced. Little shape or style of play of note. Ajax weren't great, but far better than us. 90 instantly forgettable minutes tbh. graeme_4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWTC 2,450 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Exactly what was expected there. Decent run out which reaffirmed what most already know; we’re about 7 first team starters short of half decent team. Thought Jefte and Barron looked decent, and Kelly’s two saves were top drawer. Lots of work to be done both in outgoings and incomings. Fully expect us to get another 7 in, at least 2 of which will be loans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
esquire8 44,999 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Not taking anything from that like I do with all friendlies. Squad still needs sorted and hopefully is done by the start of September. Don't see any issue with how we are trying to play, just the players we have to select. johanhentze 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
