Awrite the late late View fae my couch..
As I said unfortunately couldn't make it last night so I was forced onto the couch for my first hame game since Covid...
Anyhoo...
Big Kasper got his work awe done and dusted in the first minute then got the deckchair oot... Some save it was...
The Fab four at the back after the first min aside defensively were sound... Going forward the full backs were both out of sync with the rest Tony on the right overhit just about everything, and after watching young Valle put in some exquisite crosses this last couple of games, we were back to wee Greg's hit and miss (usually the latter) style of passing...
Our Yanks in CB looked like a good pairing, although I felt Austins passing wasn't as good on the left side as it was when play on the right of the back 2, this could also be because of who was outside him...
Our own big Belgian in midfield seemed passive first half, but when he dropped back after Paulo got hooked he took control of the game and drove us forward in the second half... Decent showing imho..
Paulo done the graft alongside Luke, but I felt really that they both seemed to be missing a conductor to their play, but still both decent without being overly effective..
Kyogo, when its no your night its no your night, someone gave him a copy of Dessers in action and it seems as though he's caught that affliction..
The wingers
. Luis unfortunately has played himself right out of it, although 3 shots with only the 3rd one anyway decent shows he has something, which hopefully his new employers get the benefit of in January... Yang was slightly better but I really cant see him making a name for himself at our club...
The Hauners.... Well it was a bit of a new role for some of them, but boy did they change the game..
AJ decent ball out to Yang, continued into the box and bang one nil before Tony had got his Trackie top on..
Jamsie and Daizen gave us a more familiar look and really took the nervousness away that was starting to creep in to those of us watching on our brand new super dooper dfs couches
Reo strung a few passes about and gave a decent account of himself...
Big Liam came on and immediately jumped under the first punt up the park, but not to worry after that he never put a foot(or head) wrong.
Brendan, I know its a squad and we have some bigger games coming up, but imho to many changes, even if some were forced, but imho that was two to many.
The ref... Never seen him before and hopefully never see him again.. Looked out of his depth and resorted to the whistle for everything style we know and hate so much...
Funny wee thing happened last night....as I was watching the final few minutes of the game, my phone wrang and it was wee Shades who was at the game, I asked him if he'd left early but no he had stayed till the death and waited till he was in Nuneaton street to phone me... I never realised how far behind my feed was as I never go near my phone during the game...

Up next the the sheepie hun slayers at the national disgrace of a stadium...
