Carroll not looking so sharp

I think it's time to start getting the first XI sorted and get them playing together to allow them to gel.

Well, the first IX - we are still missing a CB and LB...

Can't wait for Lucas to get back, we miss him in midfield.

We need to get in a LB and CB asap.

New lads looked decent second half but we have a host of problems at the back really. Maybe games like today will convince the club to invest in a centre half and a left back now. We certainly over played the long ball to Carroll who needs to stay on his feet a bit more as well. Henderson, Downing and Adam I felt all looked promising despite the score line. No one likes to see their club lose so even a friendly defeat is a slight dissapoinment.

In the first half yes.  2nd half was better but you can see clearly that the new signings need some time to adjust/get used to each other.

Glad I bailed on this and went out for a drink :D

Next game can't come soon enough. Hopefully we start fielding something closer to our first 11 in the run up to the Sunderland game

We need to win these "friendlies" period. Was it 3 seasons ago where we lost repeatedly in preseason and then were total bo--ox at the start of the season?

Winnning becomes a HABIT and so does losing..

Conceding 9 in 3 games. Defenders are badly needed and hopefully Kenny sees that and acts soon

Was it that bad today? Did Downing, Henderson and Adam all play?

Give them time, they will gel.
