JJ 0 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Aaron's is certainly exciting. And not in the headless chicken way either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ 0 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Two great saves by Elliot in the past 5 minutes or so. Boy was offside for the 2nd one, but the lino missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatty 24 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Saved by the Lifeboat! (Elliot makes a decent save and then claimed the resultant corner with ease and then distributed well. Well done Elliot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatty 24 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Pardew screaming "pass, pass" whilst our creative players have the ball at their feet in the final third is utterly gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ 0 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 As pre-season games go that wasn't bad at all in terms of entertainment. Still got a lot of work to do, but some pleasing signs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 7295 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Nice entertaining match, played at a faster pace than the preceding Sydney FC vs West Ham match. We were wasteful with a few chances and they took the game to us on occasion. It was was good to see Abeid get some time on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitman 2207 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Tbh I thought we were pretty poor bearing in mind the standard of the opposition. I couldnt work out what the hell was going on formation wise...we seemed to have anita playing right wing in the first half, haidara left wing and mapou at left back. The play was disjointed and at times our defence was completely overrun. Taylor was appalling imo and elliott couldnt kick a ball. Collo got injured second half I hope hes ok. On the bright side de jong looked useful until he got injured and colback looked neat and tidy. Gouffran looked spritely at times and the no 35 (I assume this was Aarons but the feckless pa man didnt have his name) looked lively. We did seem to lack an end product though and we seemed to struggle to create chances.pp All in all a cracking day out. The whole squad went for a stroll down the waterfront so we got to say hello, which was nice. A privilege to see the lads down here I just hope that was a case of chucking the lads on for a bit of a kick around rather than a serious attempt at a match. The icing on the cake was walking past a very glum and orange sam allardyce at the airport afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bictor 0 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 We started 352 with Anita/Haidara as wing backs and Yanga as the left CB. Gouffran was playing infront of Abeid/Colback and behind Riviere/de Jong. Then we went 4231 in the second half. Yanga moved to RB/Haidara further back. Aarons was LW and Gouffran moved out right.

Kitman 2207 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Whatever it was first half it was dog shit imo. Our right hand side and taylor in particular looked poor to me. It was only inept finishing from our hosts that prevented us from conceding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFaul 35 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Anyone got a clip of the goal? Toon dominate etc?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7029 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I wouldn't say we dominated. They probably had the better chances and we could have lost in a different day. Watching that today it makes you wonder why we bought Perez when Armstrong looks just as good if not better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
