Crusaders (H) 25-07 Build Up

terrible performance against part timers. created very little and even if we played another 90 minutes don't think we'd score another
 
this proves my point vinagre and traore should start against shit sides
 
Good old vinagre. There keepers had a decent game (apart from the end)
 
I know it's not easy against two deep, packed lines, but the creativity has been shocking tonight. We really do need a #10 to help out against teams like this, we know well3see it 4-5 times in the league as well as Europe. We'd have been loads better off with dendonker instead of Bennett, and a number 10 ahead of Neves and moutinho.

It's hot, it's preseason blah etc, but the lack of proper clear cut chances has been really disappointing

“yOU kNow WE’rE wINnIng”
 
Those last 5 minutes where we showed we really wanted a second goal is how we should've played that whole half. We're ok, and credit to Crusaders, but at times we need to up the energy against teams that sit back against us.
 
It was obvious 18 months ago, 12 months, 6 months, but it remains the case that we need to adjust the system for games like this. It allows teams to defend against us.
 
30 shots at goal!

10 on target.

Luckily we got a second gift. Probably easier to scored away. I think we may have to get used to it. Teams coming for a point in the premier league now we are not a newly promoted surprise package.
 
Don't care about anything other than the result.

I can't decide if MGW played well or was extremely wasteful, maybe both
 
That'll do. Crusaders were very well organised and we were lacking in creativity but I only care about the result!

Had lots of the ball, poor pass selection or control didn't help him. Had at least three efforts all off target and all in the should work the keeper category. It got no better for him when he dropped into midfield.

In games like this Vinagre and Traore offer more in attack and both should start next week. Traore did well. Still lacks the final ball but never stopped trying or asking for the ball.

2 0 half way there.
 
The biggest 2 nil hammering ever.

We never lost control or looked under any kind of threat, we moved it around really well, some lovely passes from Ruben and Joao, Adama was on fire first half.

After half time it seemed like we went down to Crusaders level. Not sure if it was the heat or what, but we lost our intensity, and our final ball was poor every time. I just hoped Adama would skin his man and take a shot but he didn't do so until the end and it ended up hitting MGW.

Yes we looked rusty but it's still preseason and there's nothing there in that performance that has me worried.

I'm only worried about the lack of signings.
 
3 cod, a battered sausage and a pile of chips for £2. That's the real result of the night.

Great to see everyone again!
