Cadiz v Leicester (Friendly)

[moore_94]

If he isn't going to be involved for us this season then we definitely need to get Carr a loan with a counter attacking team

 

He will thrive

[DJ Barry Hammond]

This hasn’t been very good from what I’ve seen - we’re clueless with the ball and causing ourselves our own problems.

I thought he was excellent vs Burton once he got on the ball centrally. Haven't seen any of the other games.

I was hoping he'd get amongst the goals and assists, really break out.

 

Concerned about our lack of attacking options.

As much as I like Evans I don't think he should be on corners.

 

Needs to work on his delivery.

Yeah no more corners for Evans 

[moore_94]

Half time 0-0

[Rubbersoul]

Wow Evans is bad at corners 

[RichardGearman]

What is the point in having wide players hugging the touchline, baiting the press to trap us inside and then continue to try to play through when everyone is being man marked centrally? Please Russell tell me there's an instruction going to the players on that stuff PLEASE!

[Rubbersoul]

Is this just a normal 90 minute game? So another 11 for the second half 

[LCFCCKEANO]

It’ll look different with Mavididi and Alves on I think, we desperately need a striker or two and a winger or two 

[Stopharage]

Looking at the ground, it’s great to see we’re still a massive draw on the continent. 

[DAS Boot]

In all honesty, they were all a bit crap that half apart from Carr and Oluko.

[JimJams]

Midfield has been non existent.  Odd selection of players for it really.

[sm1]

This is going to be like a typical game for us. We've been pressed in defence and we've just coughed the ball. So many times our wingers are free and we're just pissing about in defence.

[moore_94]

Rough going forward but...

 

In all fairness our attack consisted of 2 18 year old wingers and a 17 year old striker

 

With a midfield of Hamza (who can't pass), Neale (who is struggling a bit but the pitch really isn't helping), and Chaplin in his first pre-season minutes

1st half summed up 

Pitch is awful 

Midfield struggling 

McCarthy with some good saves 

Aluko one of the first names on the team sheet 

Chaplin done ok, nothing stand out 

Hope Riley Carr plays some part this season, has looked very good so far this pre season 

[TommyK]

Neale not ready. 

 

Keeper is the only one to come out with credit. 

[coolhandfox]

People need to chill its pre-season on pitch that looks like a potato field with a side thats throw together.

Need Alves, Braybrooke and Page to cleanse my eyes.

 

Choudhury and Chaplin not good enough considering their experience. Neale struggling as well although it is more understandable and he was probably the better of the 3.

[Devonfox1884]

Only Aluko, Chaplin are likely starters at Notts from that XI. Possibly McCarthy and Choudhury too.

 

Carr looks tidy. Aside from him and Aluko the other youngsters look a little off the pace.

Midfield more of an issue than the attack.

 

They only had long balls from the defence to work off all half.

[AKCJ]

Aluko is captain?

[RowlattsFox]

Half watched whilst cooking and thought the young lads have done OK. No idea if this is a 'strong' cadiz team, and to be honest, I don't even know what league they are in.

They have looked more likely to score and we've been pretty poor going forward on the ball although a couple of times the press has worked well. Hope Chaplin isn't going to be down the middle too often. 

 

Good to see Souttar and Chaplin sticking up for the young lads though after a typical Spanish overreaction

I don't think it helps that the pitch is absolutely honking, hard to keep it smooth with the passing

Yeah, and probably our best player that half as well
