Watching it live. So far, we’ve played some tidy 1-touch football but lacking penetration. Adam Idah just missed a very good chance!

Not wanting to be critical in preseason but this midfield isn’t working at all. Thankfully we won’t be starting with it on opening day!

poor defending from Key for their goal and a poor miss from Idah to get an equaliser at the end of the first half

You can't have Fulton as a single pivot and expect any effective progression from deep

Then you had Widdel and Cooper dropping deep to pick the ball off him because Fulton is limited and the only options are out wide who are isolated 1v1 and the striker is also out of the picture

We need upgrades on the likes of Key, Cooper, Fulton and Cullen

A glimpse of a midfield without a Galbraith-type to play through the thirds

Think we really need to bring in a technical midfielder, hopefully there’s one on the list.

Do we know where Walta is? Picked up a knock I’m assuming

What a shambles we were, clueless football.
Over half the people between be lucky to make 15 appearances between them I wouldn’t think to much about it

I'm guessing 2 of them might be gone, the other 2 not even in the match day squad if all goes well!

We shouldn’t worry about a preseason game. I know we had a bad one last summer and it carried over but there’s no way of telling that the same will happen under Matos. We lost in preseason while still in the PL and managed okay. Bristol City drew with Newport earlier today, it happens. I’m glad we looked a bit leggy because it means we’re being worked hard and we should be up to standard by the start of the season.
