I was really impressed with the lads on Saturday..kept the ball for long periods and moved it around nice and slick and along the deck. I'd have loved to see the possession stats and completed pass figures!!
For long periods of that game the Shots were chasing the ball and they must have been getting tired towards the end of the game....our movement of the ball was dragging them from one side of the pitch to the other!!
Have to agree with other posters about a couple of points...the liner on the Whinney Hill line got a couple of offside calls totally wrong. They all seem to make the same mistake and concentrate on making the offside call when the player has already made the run and found the space and receives the ball rather than actually making the call at the point/precise moment that the ball is actually played.
The new lad at the back was solid and never put a foot wrong all game. I'd hope that we can do some sort of deal to get him long term ( if possible )
As for Boco, I was a little non-plussed / about his return....I'm happy to say that I've been proven wrong...An excellent display again Saturday and from the couple of times I've watched him he has come on leaps and bounds since his initial spell !! Hope he can stay fit !!!
And Molyneux looks a class act at this level. I was very impressed with the intelligent runs and link up play and the delivery from his crosses and set plays was absolutely fantastic.
An exciting season beckons...just a pity that the public don't get down in greater numbers to see football that is a pleasure to watch.
