Odejaye scared their defence to death. Both he and Stan put them under constant pressure from the first whistle. Off goes Odejaye and they breath a sigh of relief only for Christiansen to join in and be equally as physical and mobile. Apart from Ferenci we havent had this type of threat for quite some time. Defensively, the back three won header after header with Lewin and Souza all over Fallon like a rash. Foster was neat and tidy and hardly put a foot wrong. mad ten minutes apart we looked miles away from the defence that struggled with Fallon and Booth and more recently Kyle and Sheringham.
Holloways comments on our strikers bullying his defence and our defenders bossing his strikers was great to hear.
talking of height and strength i went to watch em train today, jesus christ.. i didnt know how big Lewin/Souza/Odejayi/Ferenczi really were, they're beasts! even Mattis is one big lad, and he didnt do too bad either
RE: Spot on, we actually look a big strong side for once nt Yes we look a lot stronger and big, it's a bart time init. To be competative in this league teams have to have some muscle, and Davey as brought that strenth into the team. Whether he as brought enough quality only time will tell, but given the choice with this team and last years side. I'll put my money on Davey and his new squad.
2 weeks ago.. Davey moved the team down to the Academy pitches when people were stood in near the metrodome
