Hamer will be a top top player for us

Briefly, before we sell him for obscene money to some top Champ lower Prem club. Looks absolute quality.

Nearly got a classic Baka slide tackle goal. Allen is going to be a big player again this year.

He looks a totally different player further forward

He does. Class

They are walking through our midfield.

Hamer is on his own in there sheaf needs to be in next week or move on with other targets,Kelly on second half will be a different game

A German in the bomb squad. There's a joke in there somewhere.

 

[covcity4life]

Allen has been diobolical when deep

 

[Nick]

They are literally just falling over and dropping for the free kick

After playing 80 mins of pre-season. Brilliant isn't it. Also considering Kastaneer was quite impressive in pre-season what hope is there for Hilssner? It's a joke that we write players off in pre-season. If he still like this in month or two then it's a different conversation.

 

[fernandopartridge]

As much as Allen has given it away, Drysdale needs to get on his toes and ready to move forward with the ball, he's a bit too square

 

[cc84cov]

Can se why pask picks up so many injuries he makes odd challenges at times lol

 

[Evo1883]

Swindon deserve their lead, better side overall... City very sloppy in possession and nowhere near enough bodies moving forward in attack making us easy to defend against.

Drysdale, fadz and pask all poor first halves for me... Not sure drysdale is good enough to cover injuries etc.

Poor half tbh, missed Kelly in midfield too

Kastaneer is the better of the 2

 

[clint van damme]

Shipley will come on 2nd half and change the game. Need to set about their midfield and he'll do it.

Ageed. He has given the ball away so many times in dangerous positions.

Boooooooooooo!!!!!!

 

[Nick]

Wonder what the free kick count is

 

[Marty]

State of Hilssner, Needs to spend the next 2 weeks running.

 

[sw88]

Allen has had a shocker this half.

Hilßner pretty absent

Pask is no Dabo.

Baka is no Biamou (overhead kick attempt).

Other than that

No more negativity from me; I’m not about for the second half

He'll tackle anything won't he? Great to see

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

They look a good side tbf

Mate its a fucking joke

Allen worst player on pit h but all posts about hilsner

I bsck my footy knowledge and tend to be proven right alot! Hilsner shown some good stuff with his through balls and give and take

Of he was brainless I would worry. Bit fitness issues in 2nd friendly? Fuck me maybe it will improve?

Will never understand stupidity of some fans. Kstaneer never got act together so all new signings never will either

And then they let it cloud their analysis. Only look for negatives and ignore anything good

Crazy bias vs a COV player from COV fans

 

[TomRad85]

Hamer and Giles have done OK. Everyone else not so much.

Allen very poor passing set up the goal and 2 other chances. Miss rose ability to bring it out and dabo down the right. Giles looks good, Baka can’t carry the attack on his own. Ohare and Allen look great just behind

 

[Skybluefaz]

He's playong fine. Jesus

It's clear he's far too sluggish. Needs fitness. Although technically looks fine.

 

[Evo1883]

we really need to work hard over the next 4 weeks to be ready for what is a seriously difficult league

 

[BigadamL]

Real big fan of drysdale but he needs to be stronger today

 

[clint van damme]

state of Kastaneer last year set alarm bells ringing and the same thing is happening here.
If you're a professional athlete you should keep fit if nothing else.

 

[BigadamL]

We didn’t win any preseason games last year did we?

 

[Frostie]

Massive overreaction on Hilßner.
You can see he's got technical ability & looking to play some intelligent passes he's just well off the pace fitness wise which is not really surprising. Give him a chance.

 

[lifeskyblue]

Not sure hilssner good enough. Take him off, push Allen forward and kelly on. Drysdale and Pask not filling me with confidence. Get Hamer on ball more going forward. Either Baka got to use his strength or Godden on.
The Rangers game filled me with confidence...this game having opposite effect.

Positives: Hamer, Giles, O'Hare all look good (obviously we know what O'Hare can do).

Negatives: Look very shaky at the back. Look toothless going forward. Obviously early days but shows there's still significant work to do. Need CB, DM, ST at least I'd say.
