I can see it being a real battle for the GK shirt when Dovin is fit.

On this brief performance, I’m not sure we’ll see much of Dovin this season.

Decent half. Look vulnerable at the back but some nice passing moves. Final ball is pretty poor and we have been sloppy at times but decent against a good side. Important to note we are a week ahead in pre season, La Liga doesn't start until the 15th August.

I think it's a bit early to come to that conclusion.

Good performance so far. We look good on the ball

Really hope MVE stays.

Not being a boo boy but Simms the only one to disappoint so far

Great half for 11 days out and hopefully a couple of signings away

Don’t know if anyone has mentioned it, but new nets in the goals. They’re much deeper, like Leicester’s. Only small detail but I like it.

Not bad, centre forward was always going to be the issue, not even sure wright is the answer, we just haven’t got one that suits how we play, like with grimes you Could tell in the first 5 mins he was class, rushworths the same,

Don't think hes done anything wrong really , our deliveries generally have been lacklustre

What game are some of you watching? The standard of opposition is good and we coped reasonably well and had some good passages of play. Grimes and Rudoni class for us in that half

Sakamoto has beaten their left back for strength a few times.
EMC has been involved and done well until final decision
Rudoni scores again.
Simms has run about and pressed.
Rusworth looks a great keeper.
Grimes doing Grimes things, except one awful pass first few minutes.

Good half against a good team.

I doubt if they will bother marking Simms if he comes out for the second half.

Yes his link up play has been good and there’s nothing I can note of a clear cut chance for him. The only downside was that cross/shot

Yeah they are isolated up there.

However we are putting a lot of crosses in and he's nowhere near attacking them.

We’ve found a keeper that could win us 10-15 points rather than lose us 10-15

We look like we're about to piss the league if I'm being totally honest.

Some very sloppy play early on, but improved as the half went on, Rushworth already looks a massive upgrade over Wilson and Collins, but Kitching looks off the pace, MvE is having a tricky game, and as usual we look weak upfront. Rudoni looking sharp and took his goal well.
Looking forward to seeing Torp threading some quality passes around.

All in all its a good work out at this time of pre-season.

It is weird seeing a keeper knowing what they want to do straight away and not take 5 minutes

Or you get to the transfer window and the new manager tweaks the squad with players that fit the way he wants to play better.

But will take more than one window.
Was never going to all happen this summer.
