They just ghosted right by Adam just now, they're not doing nearly enough work defensively imo. No pressure on the ball whatsoever from anyone.

The first goal every defender sat there and watched the ball roll past like they expected a fairy to clear it for them... The second is never a pen. He swung at the ball, it's came of Carras foot a bit and he falls over because his center of gravity is off.

They score just about every time they get near our box. This is pathetic.

but you expect your defenders to mark their man and sniff out any potential dangers, they failed to do so, in the 2nd goal they couldn't even clear their lines.

Its more of a defencive issue than a midfield one IMO

Yeah you're right but I haven't liked the way our midfielders have played so far in the preseason either, our entire defence down the middle has been awful imo.

Glen Johnson was looking good first 10 minutes, now he looks like he is getting beaten up!

If that was a pen than Agger getting yanked to the ground outside the box is def a foul.. C'mon ref be consistent.

unlucky Johnson

much better build up there

lol Valerenga fielded a weak team

At this point it feels we will soon lose both Stevie and Carra.. He's been garbage today and he can't keep up at all. Been making a bunch of strange mistakes and just doesn't seem good enough.

good finish from Carroll, brilliant cross from Downing

Great ball in by Downing. Well in Carroll. Tho as of now Agger has been our best offensive player.

by **The Good Yank** » Mon Aug 01, 2011 6:45 pm

Nice finish by Carroll. Hopefully something to build on.

by **jimmy brighton** » Mon Aug 01, 2011 6:46 pm

Lovely cross from Downing and a nice finish from Caroll. At last, something to be cheerful about!!!!!
