Really good to see us moving the ball about quickly compared to the way too slow efforts of last year
We played some nice stuff and were much the better team until we got into the final third where we had very little to offer.
Pretty much a training session, scrappy at times. We are undoubtedly trying to pass out and between the lines more but it's hard to know how effective it will be when we are being put under any sort of pressure. Still seeing our players pass through the midfield and try to control it is pleasing on the eye.
We all know we are going to massively lack goals as it stands. Can only imagine we are some way down our list on that front.
Mark Harris got to do better when he's in on goal.
Defence and midfield look ok.
Up front we desperately lack a cutting edge and a striker who can lead the line. Without new recruits, , we will struggle this season.
Some things to be concerned about there I’d suggest.
Just don’t look like creating anything. Some nice passing though and Sawyers, unsurprising, is skilful.
Ojo looks up for it to me. Thought Rino linked things up nicely.
Kipre looks good on the ball but was beaten in the air to a cross.
O’Dowda, I’m afraid to report, couldn’t find a man with his crosses. Had a few chances to do so and failed
Harris had two good chances and spurned both. One came from just about the only long ball we played all evening
The ‘second 11’ brought a bit of life to the game, with Sang and King buzzing about. Leahy looks a good player
I know it’s only a friendly but it’s hard to imagine us scoring many in the championship at the moment
