JFK-1 1,693 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 At the time I didn't notice quite how well executed that back heel flick from Hagi was. I did notice at the time that Alfie should have put that away. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluedan 93 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Missed the game as I fell asleep (was on at 2.15am here). Heard 1st half was flat but better in the 2nd. Aribo is different gravy, seems to be really coming into a game. We created good chances and it could've been more. All in all, good pre season and I think we're ready. Let's go! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored 10 (Alfie hasn't scored any, but his link up play was good today), conceded 0. More positives than negatives. Aftet a bounce game on Wednesday, its onto the serious business. Strange though it sounds, Morelos’ barren stint in front of goal is actually a good thing IMO. Having scored 10 and none of them coming from Morelos it suggests that the other players are ready to contribute goals this season. if that happens and Morelos then hits a bit of form again we could be lethal.

I know he hasn’t been tested massively defensively but he is brilliant on the ball, strong as an ox and faster than any centre back I remember us having. His strength was always noticeable but yesterday it was his pace that stunned me. For such a hulk of a guy he can move. The boy is FAST. Completely agree.... could easily be our best defender by a country mile - a wee bit better decision making and clean up on the little mistakes and we’ve won a watch with this boy ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Loyal Know what you mean - we were crying out for goals after the winter break and if Alfie didn't play well / score we usually lost points. Alfie link up play has been fine in pre-season and it has opened up chances for other players. Let's hope he finds his shooting boots this week tho ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve said the same ever since I saw him for the first time before we were even linked. Saw him playing for Charlton in the play off final and he was head and shoulders above everyone else. Now in his second season for us, and remembering he’s still a young guy, he could be our most influential player this season 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and another way to look at it is Alfie always seems to hit a barren spell during a season.... hopefully this is his barren spell for this season and he goes between now and May in a very rich vein of form. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that the one that got deflected for a corner if so can't be deemed a miss. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
