Re: Port Vale Thread
Have to say that was a poor performance tonight. Lots of possession that went nowhere. Port Vale strolled it after taking the lead. Don't even think they got out of first gear really. They look a class oufit to me and will be worthy promotion candidates.
Bad bits - Bavs distribution was awful, Edwards crossing.... if he's gonna be right back for a while he needs to do more than give their keeper 'catchies'. Midfield - possession's great but make some telling passes eventually, most of the night we ran out of ideas and ended up going backwards. Up front we've got no threat, Gornell works so hard on his own he's knackered after an hour.
Good bits - Long continues to improve, Jacobson made decent debut apart from that lousy volley, Barnett had good game but got little help and as stated Gornell for his work rate but again he needs support (Craney perhaps ?)
Good luck to Vale. They play good footie, have strong, quality players, play fair (unlike Rotherham) and are a good bench mark for the rest of L2
