We should be three or four one up. Another sitter missed. Keeper did well, but he is a top level keeper.
We have Roberts, Pines, Earl and MDG. If one gets injured and we put in Lofthouse, Lopata or Shepherd we will be OK.
We’ve definitely had chances, perhaps more clear cut than our opponents. Need to take one though. Shooting practice this afternoon!
Think you might be in a minority here. If others could finish, we’d be 3-1 up here and he’d have 2 assists. I wouldn’t call him strong but wouldn’t say lightweight either. He gets fouled a lot.
Yeah, can't work out whether he just goes down to easily or they're singling him out for some treatment.....in a friendly. Refs will ignore him as he's on the floor too often.
Plenty of this starting 11 are in the last chance saloon ready to be sold or loaned out. If we got thrashed it shouldn't dent confidence our reserves losing to a La Liga side with an international keeper due to go play in Saudi Arabia.
I'd say that's a slightly biased opinion. I'd accept we have had a bit more of the match, but they look much more confident and capable in possession. We've been crap at finishing. Watters ain't gonna replace Cole's goals.
As been said not sure how we are losing that football match but good signs. My takes no faffing about at the back and the lad Craig will go down a storm.
I wouldn’t say it’s that biased. We’ve missed 3 very good chances and I can only remember them having 1 other chance other than their goal. They do look comfortable on the ball but, as of yet, I wouldn’t say super threatening attacking wise.
It's been a funny game as a contest. Mallorca dominating possession and going past the defence with ease. Yet somehow Barnsley have had far the better of the chances, Watters forcing a save, the penalty and post follow up, Watters setting up Connell to force a save, Cotter bombarding their penalty area with throws. It shows that even if you're second best, if you have a go you can get those chances. Craig has had a game to forget although a bit harsh to judge him on a friendly.
Agree with all except Craig think he’s done alright looking to move the ball and getting stuck in which is good to see
