Encouraging performance. Kept shape really well and everyone looked comfortable with their roles. Pressed well and starved them of any good opportunities.
Didn't create too much in open play but looked dangerous from set pieces, thanks to Rudoni's delivery.
Burroughs went past the fullback on the outside a few times, something I wish MVE would do. He is a bit of a unit too.
Will be interesting to see who starts out of Binks and Kitching.

Binks, at least for the first 3 games

Rudoni v O’Hare. We’ve traded up.
Said it from the start. He was head and shoulders above everyone in that turd of a Huddersfield team, yet people were hung up on basic goal and assist stats.
He's really going to kick on here.

We represented the Championship very well. They did not do the same for La Liga. Quality and attitudes were shocking.

Add another midfielder in the box to box 8 mould, and replace Godden with someone better than him but not as good as Simms and we are top 6 piece of piss
I think we're fine for box-to-box options with Rudoni, Eccles, Torp, Palmer and Allen if we're desperate. That's 5 players for 2 positions.

Another elite ball-playing 6 would be delightful. Someone who can dictate the tempo.

I hope we keep Burroughs around the first team (not loan out). Think he has shown enough over the last 2 seasons to suggest he is capable of at least being an understudy to MVE. Being able to play in a number of positions is useful too.


Agreed, I rate him. Didn't look out of place at all in 22/23. Was better than Dabo, and BNC for me

Managed to catch some bits in the second half. Pitch looked awful and ref didn't seem to have any control. Looks like a good workout against frustrating opposition. Thought we could have nicked it, but glad we didn't concede.

Would love us to be in for Kyprianou. Very decent player

There has been a lot of talk about leadership and grit preseason after losing Kelly and Fadz . Tonight against a horrible,niggly side players stood together and looked after each other with a few players you wouldn't expect piling in .
Think we know that once again team spirit and togetherness isn't going to be a problem this season

Thomas is quite an imposing figure and made their CB back down from trying to bully Allen😀

Another attribute Palmer has (I’m a fan) is that he isn’t afraid to get ‘involved’. Lati and Jeccles also aren’t too shy to kick people when it’s needed/not needed either.
And then There are more obvious ‘brutes’ like kitching, Thomas, simms, Bidwell.
I think I’m trying to say we’re a bit tasty nowadays. Which personally I’m quite happy about.
