What was this co-commentator expecting from a friendly? 'Disrupt the temp with subs'. :lol:

 

Just said the only thing he doesn't like about friendlies is all the disruptions to the game. Which is course is true but that's what friendlies are the for.

Colback ... looks pretty good aside from the sitter in the first half. Still dislike him mind

Lol didn't miss a sitter, great defending.

 

Would've scored if he didn't forget he had a right foot as well.

It's Wellington FFs... But quietly happy about that bar potential injuries to Dejong, colo and more worryingly Aaron's.

 

Looked positive, more so than the Sydney game.

 

Big thumbs up to Perez, Aaron's and Armstrong. Satka looked composed, as promoted!

Haidara did play well to be fair, Gouffran, Colback, etc so so.. was a pedestrian game where we looked in control and composed for the most part, a few defensive lapses aside.

 

Trying to dampen expectation on Aarons and Perez too, because of their age. However, I think most people would have been delighted if that was a first look at two new signings that were say 24 or 25 though. Excited to see their progress and hope they don't get Pardewed like every other batch.

 

Notice in all the talk about the new batch (Aarons, Streete, Satka, Armstrong) there is not a peep about the players he has praised and promoted in the past (Ameobi, Campbell, Ferguson, Bigi, Vuckic, Abeid).
