nzlatic Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 For all the talk about squad depth and overhauls, there are 4 of last season’s starters on the bench today. So that’s not bad going considering there’s Norwood, Garner and Kay to come back into that squad. No Norman either. Presume that’s it for him now.

LaticMark Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 (edited) GOOOALLL FOR LATICS after 22 minutes!!! Gardner dispossesses Bloxham in the middle of the park, he plays a through ball to Charsley, who rounds the keeper, but his effort hits the post - but the rebound is put home by Fondop.

yarddog73 Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Good half that for the champions elect. Should maybe have scored more and could have had a penalty, Jez frustrates me he needs to be more composed in and around the box, he gets on some decent positions. No 4 for Shrewsbury Rossiter played against us first half for Stockport as a trialist, Shrews look very ordinary so far I expect them to get better a second half. All our eleven have played their part though and we look solid again so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradKnowles1 Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Not gone but pre season has gone we have played well against the better teams, Lincoln Stockport and Shrewsbury but struggled against lesser teams. teams who are going to come and sit in we will need to learn how to break them down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Just now, rvlatic said: Trialist was otis khan Khan has quick feet and can pass a ball, came on in central midfield, but looks better wide left. Some good corner kicks too. Still not seen much from Charsley yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've kept three clean sheets at home against League 1 teams, limiting them to very few chances. Hudson, Hobson, Raglan and Monthe as a keeper and back three looks League one standard, wingbacks will be either Kitching or Uchegbulam on the left and Ogle or Kay on the right. That's a solid back 3 with Sutton and Hogan providing additional cover. Midfield has matched up well to some stiff opposition, we've played two sitting in with variations of Conlon, Lundstrum and Gardner with another two further on from Chersley, Hammond and Kay, Khan can also play in a more advanced role and he gives us another option. Only issue we have for me is goals, Fondop bagged today and put himself about but very nearly got himself sent off - again. That's twice in preseason alone he's pushed his luck. Reid was anonymous other than a decent header from an Hobson cross late on and that's about it. Surely we can't go in to the first game without bringing a front man in?. I quite like this 3-4-2-1 formation it suits us with the players we have and we are now playing like a team which is good to see. Not sure how far Norwood and Garner are away but we look very light up top and surely we still need to strengthen there. Other than that I'm optimistic going in to the first game. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
