waghorn to work on the free kicks...

Thought we did well without really creating much at all. Agan, reinforces the idea that we need another forward as priority.

 

[Billyjof]

I did't really get much from that. We hardly created much but hey the team are still looking to gel.

I don't think we could expect much more from a team that had such a horrendous time travelling yesterday.

 

[lanxfox jnr]

Thought we played really well, we defended well in parts but sometimes we had to really on Kasper. Thought Bamba played excellently, Man of the Match. We weren't crucial enough in the final 3rd so I think a goalscorer is needed.

 

[Profondo Rosso]

Agree with what others have said that the game really just reinforced our need for a clinical striker up front.

Crucial?

Horrendous, they should try a 15 hour journey in 90 degree heat in a chicken bus surrounded by the most annoying women in the world selling bits of pig in a bag.

I think I read about that on BM's blog, it was his journey to Cov last season.

I think the word you are after is clinical.

What?

 

[foxybru]

Can't we be honest with each other after so long together?

It was utter pap.

Kaspar flapped as per, Bamba and Mills lunged, Peltier given the run-around, Konchesky hoofed. King and Abe were anonymous, Waghorn tried very hard but ain't got it. The rest were OK

We're doomed.

I really don't know why some people get so worked up over pre-season friendlies, especially when we've brought in so many players this summer. Are you expecting them to just click with each other? Are you expecting a 5 star performance against a side that finished 3rd in the Turkish League last season? How dare they not look the finished article after travelling from Sweden to Austria yesterday?

 

[Swissfox]

I wouldn't say we're doomed.

We're going down.

That's what you get when you put "Lestoh" and "Pashun" together.

Bodes not well for the 6th August, then.

I do question the whole pre season schedule, which appears to have been very badly put together.

It's worrying when you learn the route that the players had to go through yesterday was completely unnecessary. With only a couple of weeks to the start of the season I do hope it has no negative effect on the players.

Hopefully next season they will do a short European tour followed by some games in our own country. That said I fully expect a far east tour and **** all in the UK.

 

[drummindefender]

What was the route?
