Our shape or lack of off the ball is worrying.

Not expecting much and I no it is only a friendly and I'm not having a go at sordell just saying it as I see it.I want all our players to do well and never slag new players off.

Defence needs massive investment on this showing.

Sordell looked strong there. Haynes didn't need the ball though. Did win a corner I guess through looking like a lost sheep

Yep, centre half and a right back at the very least.

I assume Stokes will be left back when fit.

This system is asking a lot of the wing backs.

I'd prefer to not have this being streamed to be honest. We are not looking ready yet and shouldn't really be expected to look ready. Better kept behind closed doors.

The system is too hard to play, plus we're only playing 1 striker, plus mowbray is too cautious and will make both cm's sit in the dcm role. When the ball does go wide in advanced areas there's only sordell in the box.

Trialist on the bench. Possibly the German winger??

He would make a run into the box.

It's like Haynes is playing 2 positions, not sure you'll find the quality of fullback to play this. Maybe it will improve as they become more used to it and new players come in but we saw this system fail once under Pressley I don't want to see it again.

Good run and cut back by Soredell then. Shouts for handball from one player from the shot that followed, but nothing comes of it

Sordell reminds me very much of nouble, quick and strong with a bit of skill but goes missing a lot with little goal threat.
