Nuff Said 4,290 Posted August 24, 2021 4 minutes ago, TheGunnShow said: Another pleasing thing, odd as it sounds, is that the goals have come at pretty regular intervals. It wasn't just a surge of quick goals, just consistently proving throughout the game that we were the better side. Also nice to see Sargent is able to force the ball to bobble over the line off any (legally) available part of his body. Sometimes we will need to be a bit ugly.

TheGunnShow 4,861 Posted August 24, 2021 Can't get better than that. Most of the reserves got a good spell in their legs, we looked very decent indeed, we tanked up a bit of confidence after two pastings against two of the world's top teams, and we're into round 3 so more chance for those who have fewer games to stay fully match-sharp.

Indy 2,850 Posted August 24, 2021 Nice to see the players actually looking to pay the ball to an open player rather than shot from a tight angle. Very unselfish and to be commended for such young players. Confidence result tonight. Well done on a great win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Besthorpe-48 68 Posted August 24, 2021 Hello This is the late late show from a restaurant on the Costa brava run by a penarol fan (first mention for Penarth on any city thread?).

I think we all secretly know that, at least as a CDM anyway - I certainly wouldn’t put him in the team in front of Kenny!

Dean Coneys boots 1,234 Posted August 24, 2021 Have to say I feel a lot, lot better about the season ahead after that. Not just the score line but the way we managed the game. we were playing a CDM to protect back 4 - take note Farke!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mason 47 1,089 Posted August 24, 2021 Great win, just what was ordered. Think it's quite understated the role Sargent and Sorenson played tonight. It was a sub-par Bournemouth but both showed individually some things that have been a bit lacking in our first games (again, with due acknowledgement of the difference in opposition) I think Williams + Mclean find their way into the XI at the weekend, but I think Cantwell + Pukki will have to make a show of being up to it- we have two expensive young signings who are banging on the door now, having wasted no time at all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Paddons Beard 2,072 Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) Enjoyed seeing CR bouncing . Great result . Bournmouth were utter dross . We played expansive championship football - terrific reminder of how good we are against a low press side who chased shadows all night What it told me about how we will fare against stronger , higher press , more efficient on the break Prem sides I have absolutely no idea . There were times tonight where we committed players in advance of the ball and lost possession. We were not punished but I suspect it will be different against Prem sides . Shame about Mumba. He didn’t look good at the end after a decent performance. And what Ben Pearson has done to annoy Parker we can only guess Edited August 24, 2021 by Graham Paddons Beard 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
