Under this head coach no

The current crop of players ain't good enough to dishing a hammering out to anyone.

Very poor squad in my opinion and a negative head coach makes it even worse.

Hoofballs are going all over the place.

So we did I do apologise , did the score line flatter

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #28 on:** July 26, 2017, 08:57:36 PM »

Have we got a goal in us?

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #29 on:** July 26, 2017, 09:01:50 PM »

No Albion player seems to be making themselves available.

I know it is only a friendly, but why not try to play football?

2 championship sides playing.

I genuinely wonder if TP is so set on his system that he tells the team to set up and play as if they were actually playing the top 6.

I need a lift, we all need a lift as far as our beloved Albion are concerned

Standard corner...Booted out the other side.
Put a man out there and don't get sucked in !

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #35 on:** July 26, 2017, 09:14:16 PM »

I did say 2 championship sides...Change that...we are playing like schoolboys with their kick and rush.

Yes J-rod

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #37 on:** July 26, 2017, 09:18:33 PM »

Coo we scored.

Legend · « **Reply #38 on:** July 26, 2017, 09:24:48 PM »

Got a feeling Rod will score at least 10 goals this season. Watch this space.

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #39 on:** July 26, 2017, 09:35:05 PM »

A nothing match from us.
Burton Albion unlucky to lose.
Will we have more of this dire play from Pulis this season?

iwastherein68 · « **Reply #40 on:** July 26, 2017, 09:37:15 PM »

Like the look of Hegazi, looks cool, and comfortable on the ball. Early days but we could have a useful player here.

Macmanaman had a lively cameo,at least he's direct when he gets hold the ball.oh I forgot he's part of the pulis bomb squad so he will only feature in the preseason friendlies in an effort to shift him

Or he's just not very good. Struggled to get in Sheffield Wednesdays team.

Think he's no worse than McClean and he gets enough game time,so difference maybe is the tracking back duties

So we've won the Bass Charity Vase due to winning this game. See all you lot complaining about trophies can stop moaning now.

Interesting to hear if we actually created any chances being as we scored from a corner again

AlbionBest · « **Reply #46 on:** July 26, 2017, 10:34:09 PM »

I went and thought we were very comfortable overal without over exerting.
Both the new guys looked decent against a battling Burton side. Hagazi looks immense but quite clever with the ball and reading of the game.
Deserved win as we should have been a couple up at half time.
The likes of Phillips and Livermore looked a bit lethargic and no where near match fitness.

I think we created one which hit the crossbar (still not on target).
Possibly could say that their goalie stopped one too.

Two, the whole match against a lowly championship side...It doesn't say much for us.

Cheers. Did we look a level above them?

I've always rated MacManaman and disagree with TP's choice not to use him, but there's pretty good depth at the position so I don't sweat it. Would much rather see Leko get minutes off the bench (if he's not going to go out on loan)
