    Very impressed with the first performance of M'Voto. Three terrific goals in the second half, too.

    They were good. Too much pace for our defence to handle and also very comfortable on the ball.

    Just shows how much strength in depth we have that our second string more than held their own

    Yup

    That third goal was the icing on the cake.

    I thought M'voto was superb, on that performance he's got to be in the starting 11 and their 3rd goal was worth the entrance fee alone....ours wasn't bad either

    FC Bordeaux are a real team. French FA Cup winners and a casual league opener against PSG next week.

    Missed our goal but caught Bordeaux's 3rd goal. Pace is key. If you have pace, then you can just run past slower players and you are through on goal.

    In all seriousness, we should set up an academy in Jamaica. Give the next generation of Usain Bolt/Asafa Powell/Yohan Blake a football at a young age. Keep them on a 100m sprinter's training programme but give them extra curricular activities by develop their footballing ability - technique, dribbling, finishing etc. 5 days a week. When we have developed one, stick him upfront next to O'Grady. The idea probably just needs pointing out to Mansford/Flicker in a Dragons Den style pitch.
