Jamilu Collins - great going forward. Bad going backward.

I'm with you on that. Cracking goal disallowed. Crunching 50-50 won. Strong, quick can pass. Looks like a great signing.

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
Liking the look of Rinomhota so far.

Just saw it again.
Didn't stop the cross for the Cambridge goal.
Few minutes later: beautiful touch, control and nearly the perfect through ball.

Ebou Adams off, looked nasty. Joel Colwill on.

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
2-1 City
Brilliantly worked goal there!
Great play by Sang and Watters with the cool finish.
-
Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
Yeah hope Adams is okay he's just walked off with an ice pack on the shoulder so lets hope it's not too serious- he's been pretty impressive in training by all accounts. But at least we've now got options in the middle of the park.
Tanner looks nice and direct. And nice goal for Watters as I write this - be nice to see him find some form.

Be interesting to see whether a change in personnel and maybe style benefits someone like Watters

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
Like what I'm seeing from Sang, Tanner and young Colwill so far.
-
Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
Read on another post that Watters could end up like Rhys Healey. He IS a natural goalscorer wherever he's been, and with a more creative midfield now, I think he deserves a chance.

I was more pro-Collins because of his experience but Watters is a better player and could really benefit from this new look team. Fingers crossed!

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
An impressive showing from Colwill the Younger so far
-
Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
Are we only looking for the one centre-half then? :ohwell:
-
Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
my only slight criticism is that we're quite static in possession - seems to be a lack of passing options for players - not everyone is keen on making themselves available for the ball. But that'll come hopefully as the team gels.

Colwill has got so much talent but is still so young so might not gett too many outing this season.. I really like Tanners strength he's a big old unit for a winger and has strong armed defenders off and gone in for a strong challenge a couple of time

Yeh I think that's surprised me from his (Tanner's) game so far. Wasn't expecting that. End product needs some work mind but that was expected. Still an exciting player. Which will always stand out in a City side.

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
LOLLLL the football!!!!
3-1

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
what a cracking goal! Great build up from Watters and Harris. Bagan smashes home.

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
On this outing alone. I'd favour Bagan at LB, Romeo at RB. Watters ahead of Collins, Wintle and Rinomhota as our best midfield two.

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
What was Nelson doing there. We win a free kick so he kicks it straight at Cambridge who then hit us on the break as he's out of position

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
Let's be polite and describe Daley-Campbell as a project...

Thoroughly enjoyed that, bring on Tuesday!
There's a decent side in there somewhere.

Re: City V Cambridge Utd - First Pre-season game
Seen far worse league games. Enjoyed that.
Bluebirds!

It didn’t come all last season.

I think we have too good LBs. I think McGuinness is our best centre-back by far. But he needs to be our second best centre-back. I think Romeo is leaps and bounds ahead of Daley-Campbell but that says more about Daley-Campbell. Rinomhota needs to be the first name on the team sheet. Tanner is exciting but we need another winger to take the pressure off. Let him learn that final ball first. Watters to stay please, Collins to leave. I swear Mark Harris is underrated. His link up play. The one-twos. He's quick with it. Just needs to not go missing in games as much as he did last season.
Best centre midfield we've had in a while.
Why does Morrison not like Sang??? What's the story there?

That's a bit disappointing to hear. It's been a criticism of the team for a number of seasons. I'd have hoped with such a big influx of new players, coupled with pre-season training, they might have ironed that out.

Well if it makes any difference, I completely disagree with them.
