I was there and thought we played some good football although obviously it is early doors. It quietened down in the second half once we had only under 23s left on the pitch apart from Forshaw. Roca looked okay and as always I will make my mind up about players from what I see on the pitch.
How would you say we looked tactically Heidi, anything different to how we played under JM at end of last season, or was it similar ?
I thought it looked like we played 4-2-3-1 with width which surprised me as I was expecting a narrow system. Bit confused what we’re going to do with Harrison, James and Sinisterra considering they’re all left wingers. My initial thoughts were Harrison at LB/LWB but Firpo started and Harrison played higher up so obviously not the case.
Plan is to not play him at all, that way he won't get injured ever again. please log in to view this image
We started off very well with us using the wings too and getting three goals before half time which was good to see. It is early days even though I enjoyed it, but I will reserve my judgement for when we start playing in the Premier League. As always I will make my judgements by what I see on the pitch
