The result wasn't important, it was the same failings by the same players which underlined how they aren't good enough to be relied on this season. Some of them are just bad footballers, lose the ball under the slightest pressure, and run into defenders like lemmings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Interesting post match from Howe talking about how they're now starting to focus on final third play in training after focusing on building possession (and fitness) so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Given how strongly he came back in at the end of last season, I think Wilson has looked at bit subdued in these two games. He's playing in Mickey Mouse lineups that give everyone a game, but it hasn't stopped Bruno looking class or Joelinton rushing about like a mad bastard. I'm a big Wilson fan, so I hope and indeed expect there is more to come. Though there has been lots of focus on injuries, it would be good to have a backup just for any potential loss of form.

BoSelecta Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Wilson and Joelinton had decent efforts. Shelvey skied one under no pressure & Anderson made himself a half decent opening for a long range effort but straight at the keeper and lacked power. Off the top of my head.

Two big chances for Wood in the first half and Murphy's fluffed effort from Krafth's cross in the second. We should've won really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 It was absolutely nothing to feel overly worried about. We started with a lot of pace and intensity and looked pretty good before tiring against good opposition who played with a low block. It was hot conditions after a gruelling week, and we struggled to break them down at times. Even the winner itself was dubious and I don't think anyone would've begrudged us a draw. Most of our better players looked pretty sharp (Bruno, Botman, Schar, Joelinton particularly) whilst a few of our weaker players had stinkers (Wood, Fraser and Murphy). The rest was a bit of a mixed bag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
