Zalaegerszegi TE 19/07/25

[Lionator]

Ayew would be the best CF option of what we have on the basis he’d be able to hold up and bring our wingers into the game most, which will be our by far our most dangerous asset. 

[Pliskin]

Ayew, player of the season.

but also not as good at the pressing game simply because of his age. The more it gets mentioned the more the idea of converting McAteer or even Stephy appeals

[Corky]

Everyone staying until the end even though the train has gone.

 

Proper support.

[moore_94]

Full time - Leicester City 1-0 ZTE

 

Ayew - 70'

 

 

[BeaumontFox]

3 wins in a row… what is this feeling?

[Blueman1967]

 Abdul looking good with pace

Last pre-season we fluffed them all. Winning mentality is important.

[Jaspa]

Ayew stroppy with the ref at the end, and Booba remonstrating with Okoli on the pitch as the handshakes are happening. 

 

Fair enough if that's how they work things out.

[Kinowe Soorie]

Shit ground no fans…

[coolhandfox]

Two games next Friday, so everyone should get plenty of minutes!

Our 2nd player per position is better that 85% of current championship teams.

[StriderHiryu]

I was very encouraged. Yes it was against farmers, and yes the passing broke down a lot. But you could see a clear identity throughout the game and what we were trying to do.

 

This is a bit like making your sunday roast. You need to leave in the oven for a while before that delicious taste comes through! I am keen to see what happens after around 10 games in. I think we will be very exciting to watch!

[copunk]

Decent watch that 

Can tell how direct he wants the wingers to be, hate to say it but Mcateer looked the weaker out of the 5 that played 

Great to see how aggresive we were in the press, countless times we were quick and hard in the tackle to win the ball back 

Plenty of positives 

[MGLCFC]

Miles ahead of where we were this time last pre season

[Bert]

Plenty of positives to take from that. Monga & Alves looked really sharp. Fantastic to see Fatawu back on the pitch too and he certainly didn’t look like he’d missed near on a whole season. 
 

Plenty of positive football being played. Another win. For anyone that fancies a moan let’s throw some perspective in there that it’s still pre-season and the first game under a new manager. 
 

The lads look really good fitness wise.

Lol just chose to omit Daka (not being close to a professional footballer to be fair ) 

 

I think our forward options are great. Defending will be the problem I feel yet again.

Agree on McAteer but he pressed and worked back very well, Marti will like that, especially in away games against the better sides. Reckon he’ll play a fair bit this season. 

[kingfox]

Main points I picked up…

 

Both full-backs pushing up high and inside.

Clear tactic to isolate our wingers 1 vs 1.

Clear identity to press. 
Ayew led the line better than Daka. 
 

A new striker and more energy in midfield, then I’ll be pretty confident for the new season. 

[Philkeavo]

Huge credit to King and the conditioning and fitness team, the lads looked sharper and fitter than the Zalaegerszegi who start their season next week. 

[RowlattsFox]

Good run out. Nothing particularly great but solid enough. 

 

Monga is lively and I like how he's always trying to get involved. Stephy has some serious competition who i thought i was pretty poor. Alves was good for his cameo too.

 

Great to see Fatawu backed and he looked lively. 

 

Much prefer Justin at left back.. interesting the positions Thomas took first half because Justin didn't do similar second.
