I have a little smile to myself whenever I see O’Hare. Really hope he has a good season this year, could be such an important player for us.

Hilßner doesn’t work hard enough for a Robins player.

 

[cc84cov]

Anthony grant in their midfield is EXACTLY what we’re missing

 

[Nick]

The 2 playing behind Baka need to get in the box

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

We look neat and tidy but virtually no goal threat. Tbf the same could have been said last season barring a few games the majority were won by an odd goal, the concern is we won’t keep many clean sheets in the Championship

 

[Skybluefaz]

Looks like there is genuine quality in Giles left foot

Lol

 

[covcity4life]

Lucky there from a hamer mistake. We own worst enemies so far

 

[mark82]

Giles will beat Caddis 9/10 times. Can see potential in one wing back but not the other.

Not sure I agree. The potential of Pask was obvious last year.

 

[cc84cov]

Lol

Running the game winning everything that type of player is what we need

 

[better days]

Gary Bren is worse then Steve mcmanaman

Impossible

 

[ccfcway]

not sure anyone's written anything that isn't true.
As long as people appreciate it's a pre season friendly and don't start writing us off as relegation certainties based on this game not sure it can be classed as over reaction.

I’ll start with “ we have been really awful so far” no we haven’t

Shall we sell him?

Or shall we let him continue with PRESEASON?

 

[cc84cov]

We’ve pushed Jamie Allen forward now
Hilsner is now holding with Hamer

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Running the game winning everything that type of player is what we need

He’s 34 years old, played League 1 and 2 for the majority of his career and you’ve decided after 30 minutes he’s the player we need

 

[covcity4life]

what?!

Lol NHL player

 

[fernandopartridge]

Hilßner doesn’t work hard enough for a Robins player.

He isn't fit, he's blowing already and is carrying too much weight

 

[Sick Boy]

I'd add another striker too.

Ideally we need another two, IMO.

 

[Liquid Gold]

I think last seasons team would survive in the Championship, we just needed to replace Wlsh, McCallum and O'Hare.

O'Hare obviously did that, Hamer looks like he can do Walsh's role and Giles promising at wing back.

We just need to get Sheaf in to cover Kelly, as this shows how key that DM role he plays is in our system, and someone else to challenge Godden.

and then a little tear when I don't see Walsh next to him.

That type of player

 

[shepardo01]

Giles really impressing with his crosses. Needs willing runners to get on the end of them

Some decent balls in but needs to mix it up.
Seems to be delivering into the box (to just AB) every time, a few times a little ball inside has been on. We did this A LOT last season to work the ball around the 18y box and that was where we had more success than balls into the box...

Agree with this

True. Fingers crossed for Hamer though.

 

[clint van damme]

Shaggy and Scooby are going to pull off his mask in the dressing room at H/T and reveal it's Kastaneer.

 

[cc84cov]

Balls not sticking up front we are being pinned in as we cannot keep hold of it Hamer is on his own in midfield

 

[Winny the Bish]

Hilssner looks like he's running through treacle. Touch isn't there at all yet.

EDIT: MR has noticed. Moved him into CDM and Allen further forward.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Great movement from Allen

 

[fernandopartridge]

That type of player

We've got Kelly

 

[clint van damme]

better all round. Good running with the ball Allen and off the ball Baka.

We play alot of who k pass a d move

Thats going to take time to learn with his new teammates

But he has displayed he can do it already today

 

[cc84cov]

Hamer will be a top top player for us

 

[Liquid Gold]

Nearly got a classic Baka slide tackle goal. Allen is going to be a big player again this year.
