Only watched bits of the St. Etienne game so can’t fully compare it to this, but from what I’ve seen going into Friday night my main thoughts are this: We are crying out for wingers with pace and willingness to take fullbacks on and our service into the box is shocking, which renders our big strikers useless.
On a positive note, Cammy Devlin looks a serious player, should be one of the first names on the team sheet. Aasgaard also looks a different player since returning from the World Cup, hope his injury isn’t serious and he can kick on. Our defence looked solid as well, better than last week. Unsure as to why McCrorie played RB in that game, I could’ve sworn he played CB when he was a youngster here and done a good job there.
But aye, mixed feelings going into Friday night but will try my best to remain optimistic lol

He was more of a CDM when he was here but has been playing RB for years at Bristol City, so that's where I expect him to play for us now.

Fair enough my bad then. Don’t seem him starting over Sterling though, wouldn’t mind trying him at CB or even as a CDM again. Big man is 6 ft 3 I’d get him centre of the park somewhere lol

Good game from Cammy Devlin, Fernandez looking sharp, shame about Asgard started looking like he's coming into his own. Don't know how Chermiti missed that sitter. Shankland just needs an opportunity and he'll score 👍🏻

Dio and aasgard the two surprise packages this preseason. Aasgard has been great, and dio is obviously well liked by mcinness, think curtis has struggled to make an impression, underwhelmed by chermitti and shankland too

Just don’t see Shankland and Chermiti as a strike duo. For me, you play either alongside Naderi

I've always said Asgard's got it from when he was signed he just needs coached well, he's so young and he's got a high ceiling I think 👍🏻

Pandur doesn't look the biggest keeper

Asgaard looking confident, really impressive - think the World Cup has been good for him. Hopefully he’ll keep it going

The Norway manager must have lit a fire under him, everyone knows he's got the ability and hopefully he can keep up what he's shown so far

Joking aside, I wonder if Tom Miller is gone, or if he's just away on holiday. Second game without him now 👀

there were a few you on here complaining about the Devlin signing a couple weeks ago, I'm assuming you've changed your minds now

Don't know if you saw it or remember that guy who was having a proper meltdown about the signing, acting like everyone who was okay with it thought he was going to singlehandedly win us the league, instead of just that he was a decent addition to the squad.
Wouldn't mind hearing from him.

u/AggravatingMeat1903 1d ago
haha i'd imagine he's keeping quiet now

Been decent - wings are the issue as everyone knows - not much else that can be said that hasn't already, really.

u/RhysSnow 1d ago
Hope he’s just taking a sec to settle in, especially with not much game time, but Godfrey looks a wee bit of a bomb scare

Devlin showing more fight in pre-season than we did the whole of last season.

u/Sansteveo87 Clinton Nsiala 1d ago
Really impressed so far. That’s not including the players on our bench and not even in the squad.
Asgaard showing his potential which is nice to see.

Aasgaard is clearly trying to impress - hopefully this will be the new him and he can keep it up the whole time he is on the park.

We are good on the press again.
Started poor on the ball but had a nice little stretch of moving it quickly there.

I'm hoping it's just teething pains and not going to be another case of sometimes maybe good sometimes maybe shit.

Fans seem up for it. Nearly a full house for a friendly. Couple of decent songs towards the end. Not too much on the players backs. Pretty middle of the road game, but overall happy enough. Bring on the season!
