He tore them to shreds first half. Get to spec savers.

The whole team tore them to shreds for the first 30 mins, Twenty Eight. The Clark/Johnson combo was very effective. Second half he was never brought into the game at all...not his fault.

For the size of him Zanzala seems to be nudged off the ball very easily and goes to ground easily. Is there any training for him to build his body strength happening?

Jordan played a blinder! What were you watching?? Agree Nick Anderson had a Stormer too

We battered the Wombles in the first half, second half they'd obviously had a rocket & came out a different team - dirty tactics as always which ref never got a grip on but on the whole we fully deserved the 3 points although we should never have been hanging on towards the end, thank goodness for the Herculean clearance from Mr. Reliable, Mark Hughes.
First home win under our belt, onwards & upwards Stanley

There were 2 or 3 long balls today intended for Zanzala to run onto when one-on-one with their last defender.
On every occasion he either lost control or got muscled off the ball.
These were the type of balls that Kayden Jackson thrived on last season.
Despite being as thin as a rake, Kayden always managed to control the ball & skin much bigger defenders.
Sadly, I can't see OZ turning into The Wizard

Gutted to have missed this today, but had to work
How did Barlaser do?

Lord Didsbury · 22-09-2018, 22:20

Come on Twenty Eight, it’s not mutually exclusive that in the first 30 mins Clark/Johnson were effective but that overall Clark had a very quiet game.

(Let me know if you need any further guidance on mutual exclusivity, or good manners.)

Lord Didsbury · 22-09-2018, 22:24

Tom D - Barlaser did ok, but no surprise when subbed.

He’s pretty good with 40 yard passes out to the wings.

Have a look at the extended highlights because you must have missed a lot. You said he had his quietest game EVER !! Accymad .... have a word because you are much respected on here.

Lord Didsbury · 23-09-2018, 07:16

With pleasure, Twenty Eight, if you can point me in the direction of extended highlights.

Are you sure he even touched the ball more than once in the second half? I remember he ran it into the corner during injury time (and tripped over his shoelaces and gave a goal kick).

funny as well it made the game much more exciting as well. the first half went by without me looking at the clock. it will certainly get those occasional fans to come back for more unlike some other games.

That is one of the best first half displays by an Accrington side I have witnessed differences for me were 2 upfront and though a few on here think Zanzala isn,t any good he caused there defence endless problems with is willingness to run at the defence agree he needs a bit more strength and stay on his feet more but he is a raw talent that will get better good use of the squad today by the management all team were for me 7 to 9,s, some really good players can,t even make the bench stay around the play off places and the floating fans will be back.
