Never attend pre-season as it doesn’t really matter.
Early thoughts...... good in parts in the first half but awful in the second.
We are still better playing the 4-5-1 with two high wide players i.e. Clee and probably Bowerman.
We need to look for a centre mid because in 80 mins I already know that most games in this league will past O’Keefe by. I appreciate it is one game but I am confident he’s not as good as Williams or even Wilkinson. When we play three in centre mid then Moult must always be the defensive midfield so that means no place for Griffin so we need a more attack minded player.
Lawrie is not a wide player as we all know, I wanted to slap him today soooo soft in his approach and more interested in the foul rather than winning the ball. His only position in an Alty team is behind Reevesy.
Rankine can obviously play but again a big man up front takes away our passing again, second half didn’t involve any passing, just long balls. A big man to me is an impact player but he isn’t here to sit on the bench. We must remember Reeves is our main man up top.
I thought Sinnott had a good game but I am still very much undecided.
The defence stood up well, our 5 defenders at the club are very much good enough just worry about cover.
And finally, as always, we missed Richman and Clee.
Oh, please push out quicker, we seemed to have a line of players just waiting for the balls to keep coming back in.
Onwards and upwards
