  1. Knocked it about well, Barasic (?) with the cross, Jack volleys it into the far corner.
  2. I'm surprised Jones started. I wonder if he's seen as being first choice?
  3. It's going how I expected, to be honest. They have everyone behind the ball, and we're slowly trying to find a way through, and struggling. All on a terrible pitch.
  4. 16/17: 2,734 mins (31 games) 17/18: 1,397 mins (18 games) 18/19: 2,796 mins (36 games) 2017/18 he had injury problems. Nothing serious, I think, but small niggles and illness.
  5. I'd say that's true for most of us! I doubt many of us watch Slavia Prague with any regularity. I think I do recall seeing him in the Europa League last season, but I don't know. Slavia Prague reached the QF, where they lost to Chelsea. A quick search shows: Ivorian, 27 years-old, 6'4, CB, who has played in the Czech Republic for most of his career. It doesn't say on Wikipedia, but I believe he's won 2 or 3 League titles with Slavia Prague.
  6. I think the lineup back to middle is straightforward, but the front three is more difficult to pick. Possibly: McGregor Tavernier - Goldson - Katic - Halliday Aribo - Davis - Kamara Hastie - Stewart Defoe I'm stumped as to who plays behind Defoe. I chose based on who played 60 minutes on Sunday.
  7. I thought Mayo was pretty impressive. Okay--early days, and it was only a friendly, but I feel he could play a part this season.
  8. Well, yes; exactly. I'm not writing them off, it just seems like I'm in the minority with regards their showing yesterday. I actually asked above whether it was maybe just lack of match-sharpness. I like Halliday; he can do a job, filling in, now and again. And, I still think Barasic has the ability -- somewhere, surely!
  9. Any reasons for the collapses? I'd rather not click on the link.
  10. I wasn't impressed with either of them. A decent LB would improve the squad dramatically.
  11. I don't think Murphy is lined-up to play against St Joseph's anyway, because of their pitch. I think Tom mentioned that too?
  12. I thought Edmundson showed up the best yesterday. Katic wasn't far off, though. I suppose I still see Goldson as being the 'senior' defender, in a way. Goldson played every game last season, and was pretty solid; while Katic drifted in and out, making a decent start, then was awful for a spell and was rightly dropped, then came in at the end of the season with some of his best performances.
  13. I thought Halliday looked awful yesterday--that 70 yard run aside! Although, Barasic was not much better...
  14. Our front three, whomever they are, look comfortable on the ball and willing to run in-behind. Looks promising.
  15. Looking forward to seeing McPake. Don't know anything about Mayo--where does he play?
  16. Edmundson looks like an absolute unit at 6'3! I can't believe he's 21! Looks good on the ball too. Katic might have his work cut out to keep his place...
