Well I thoroughly enjoyed today's match. My first since the Wembley trip, so I certainly can't profess to know these players very well. I thought we bossed the game for the most part, though the opposition was poor. The defence looked semi-solid though there was a sticky patch after the first substitution for about 10 minutes, and I also thought Massimo was doing really well! It was a bit baffling at the time, but shortly after we'd scored 3 times, so what do I know?
I really liked JET's performance. I think he's a real find. Surprisingly skilful and manoeuvrable for such a big bloke and contributed in all areas of the pitch. Good with link up plays as well, and he has an long throw, which wasn't really utilised with the lack of run up space. Loungo also I was impressed with and Hall, a very proficient defender. I also liked Clint's no nonsense approach to defending and his constant stream of instructions to the younger guys. His return must surely be linked to 2 clean sheets in a row. I'm sure Green feels better to see him in front of him. He's basically the captain despite what it says on the program.
We had 3 very presentable chances in the first half, to Chery, Henry and Konchesky, so the first goal was a long time coming, but very well taken.
Minor point, but I wasn't very impressed with Tozer (sp.), seemed quite ineffectual, looking on rather than getting stuck in, though did provide the pass for Philips, not sure what the problem on here is with Henry either. Solid but unspectacular performance, but doesn't that just define his entire career?
I was disappointed by the booing at half time. We weren't losing and had had some good chances, and ended up with a comprehensive win. Isn't that enough? |
