And we conceded two sloppy goals but although its very tempting , as i said on another thread, to extrapolate from pre-season a verdict on our new manager or where we are , its premature to say the least.
But of course. Trossard and Andone's goals were a joy to watch.

I agree we conceded too poor goals but, hey, I was entertained... I'd missed that... how about you CJ?

Hopefully the days of trying to defend our way to 2-0 defeats every away game are over

I really hope so... we may get thrashed a few times, but expect more wins too...

We got thrashed at home to Bournemouth... f*cking Bournemouth! And showed no attacking intent. I'm ok with the odd drubbing so long as our footy is expansive and exciting to watch.

If we can score goals like Trossard or Andone this afternoon v Watford in 4 weeks time and come home with 3 points then i'd be floating on air for a week or so.
Long way to go yet...

Yes, that's fair...

First half pretty good, although conceding two goals was a bit of a concern. Second half, not so good - looked like we were reverting to ten men in our own half. Lots of buffering, so gave up watching before the fifth goal went in.

2nd half was a big drop off in terms of overall quality and composure on the ball. Kayal in particular was very erratic and sloppy. Good to see Ali J, Locadia and Andone playing as if they have a point to prove. Alzate was comfortably our best player and Solly looked great carrying the ball, just needs to sharpen up on the final ball and decision making.

Don't get why people were getting buffering and pixelisation, was perfect on my lappy. Very good quality.
Me too. Commentator aside, impressed with the presentation generally. Decent quality, nice use of different camera angles.

Good to see our little team from West Sussex start pre-season well. Johan Bax looked good too.*


*If you missed the commentary, you'll think I've gone mad...
