As the club have nothing that can be found of any note on this game, in fact not even under ‘fixtures’ we thought a helping hand is required. Only Joking Tom, but it isn’t good.

Lissah looks the business nice to see him stepping up into the midfield to close them down anticipating the opposition pass thus keeping us going forward, something Stamenic didn't do as he dropped deep all very familiar stuff to be honest they had some nice moves to get themselves up the park and put some dangerous crosses into our box which they or us couldn't connect with. We worked the ball up the park well only to come back again.Just looked lively but there was little drive through the middle, Fulton came on and Stamenic moved to the right where Just played instead of Franco and Stamenic seem to get into the game more ie in a position higher up the pitch when recieving the ball. Our goal came from a mistake and Opoku took advantage from a wide angle to catch the goal keeper out of his goal. Horrible tactics from the opposition. Inoussa came on and looked lively as he did when he first arrive but as then needs more game time. Walta came on for Widell and given the midfield was higher up the pitch he got into dangerous positions as we press forward and changed Burgess for Carter Heywood the opposition became intent on trying to get back in the game and they got clear as Lissah cramped up but Vigouroux did enough to retrieve the ball on the line. Lissah was immediately swapped for Parker, Opoku looks lively enough and was swapped for Ronald who did well enough Eom came on for Yeo who tried but needed game time out wide and Eom moved inside when Inoussa came on, Vipotnik has the last 10 mins for Idah. First half all very tidy except for those incisive counter attacks which weren't dealt with properly, we pressd hard but got opened up, not much penetration on our part often ending back with our keeper and , second half became niggly, the game opened up a little but it is about time we look forward as a first option, long balls employed that didn't get us the chances that we were looking for. Opoku and Just will need to adapt but looked lively Yeo was tidy but wanted to come inside from the left. I wouldn't want to get rid of any of the players who featured today.

"Stamenic seem to get into the game more ie in a position higher up the pitch when receiving the ball"
Exactly where we should be playing him. He's a driving midfielder, not a quarterback.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Would agree with most of that, Lissah looks like he could be a very good player. Just looks like a tidy footballer he recycles possession really well. Opoku seems to have the attributes, we need to get him in possession one on one with defenders. Yeo, I was less convinced with, he was pushed off the ball a couple of times and maybe tried too hard losing possession when an easier pass was on.
Stamenic is a bit of an enigma, good control, passes well, wins back possession, is a physical presence but I never feel we are getting the best out of him. Idah tried hard but the ball never seemed to stick. Walta picked out some great passes, I'm not sure we can play him and Just together they feel a bit lightweight. Fulton on the other hand had a good 20 minutes.

I just feel with Stamenic playing deep and we are pressing high, spaces are found by opposition teams playing out from the back and yet us playing out from the back cannot find the gaps. We seem to get forward better later in the game but we ended up playing without firstly Burgess and then Lissah which caused an issue at the back
