Would have thought either Reidewald or koyoute to have taken the game by the scruff of the neck in the centre of midfield. But neither seem to be in the game much at all

We are extremely slow, only side or back passes.
Sørloth missed an easy header. Awb and Williams are doing ok.
You'd expect a team with Sørloth, punch, meyer, kouyate, etc to produce at least a shoot on goal against an u23 Championship side, but we haven't.
Let's hope things improve in the 2nd half.

Nowhere as easy as Ward's effort on Sunday, or come to that the one Harry Kane misses at Manure.

Why the hell are we travelling across Europe bringing crap like this to our club? Has Greedman been involved? Probably on a back hander...

Puncheon and Riedewald look well off the pace. Kouyate has grown into the game. Williams the best player for me in the first half, tied with AWB. Meyer looks short on match sharpness, but you can see the quality. One issue is that I think Williams and Meyer are perhaps too similar and keep ending up under each other's feet.

Innis is a giant and looks good on the ball, although guilty of a mistake or two. Basically we look like a preseason team. As the half went on our passing got better and we started to control the game by the end, but we were saved by some poor finishing earlier in the half.


I like to give players a chance, but Sorloth looks a long way off PL quality at the moment. I hope he proves me wrong, but his touch has been heavy and he has already missed two or three chances with his head which Tekkers would probably have at least got on target.

Totally agree with this.

I think Williams looks pretty good...just a tad lightweight. Meyer and Williams get tangled up with each other quite a bit in the first half but they both are at least trying to push forward as is AWB.

Sorloth is taking notes from Benteke on how not to hit the target but at least he is running.

A pretty even first half.

Looks like Roy might turn to Townsend soon , don’t know wether that’s a good idea or not

I think Kouyate, when he’s got the ball, has looked alright. But despite playing central mid he seems to have barely been on the ball

Yeah looked good in parts. I like him as a player and think he will be a good squad player. Can’t see him starting at the moment. Meyer on the other hand seems to be everywhere, bossing the midfield and controlling the game. He could be exactly what we need alongside Luka or in a no10 role. Looks class!

 


It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye!

Am I hearing a techno remix of 'Now We Are Free' from the Gladiator soundtrack being played at the Liberty?

Maybe your not playing deep enough

I like to play a pressing game, but it seems the bus is always parked.

On the train home so have missed the 1st half, however regarding the Sorloth bashing, hardly surprising he’s not exactly match sharp considering how little he’s played

Sorloth has been fine, the issue has been he is isolated too often.

Jairo and Check look bloody rusty. Meyer, Punch and Jonny are busy, but the other two just look to slow to everything at the mo.

 


Happy happy JOY, JOY!

Really not encouraging at all. AWB head and shoulders the best player on the park. Tempo of passing is slow and sluggish, midfield does not get forward any where near quick enough. The only time we penetrate their back line is when AWB drives forward.

Also think we’ve had 5 corners! Deliveries floated with no pace and come across as being just hopeful. Sadly Sorloth always seems to lack any real desire to get on the end of anything.
