Bill 13,717 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 It looks like we quietly replaced Rabbi Matondo during the summer with some bloke who can play a bit. Maybe we could do the same with Abdallah Sima. We got a lot closer to PSV than I thought possible. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep we went right at them instead of faffing about. Same again in Dingwall please. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matondo was excellent when he came on and unlucky not to score another with that volley at the end. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSocksRedTops 3,528 Posted August 22, 2023 Author Share Posted August 22, 2023 I'm reading that so many of players are "confidence" players...whatever that is. Surely all players are confidence players? Anyhow, my point is that it's evident that Matondo was low on confidence. I've said it before, if MB is looking for a wide player with pace, why continue if you have one on your doorstep? Back to the game. I would have taken 2-2 before the game in a heartbeat. A lot of players of the pace tonight but we still get the draw. Definitely think we will go with 3 at the back over there to cover the space behind the full backs. Oh and Goldson was immense. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weebluedevil 1,207 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Actually quite pleased with that performance. Wasn't perfect but the effort and desire was unquestionable. And two world class goals. We do need to be more composed on the ball, make better passes and our movement off the ball needs to be better. Unlucky not to win though with Danilo chance after the save from Lammers, a poor quality effort from him though. We contained a very good side, we're very much in the tie and we give ourselves a chance next week. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutton_blows_goats 4,555 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Felt Dessers was a good focal point tonight, his pressing was also excellent which is I suspect why he was signed. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,218 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Aye, what a game Goldson had. I felt Tavernier was short-changed by Cifu' not covering space quick more than once but he should have sorted that out a lot quicker. No matter, Goldson was an absolute rock. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weebluedevil 1,207 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Two assists from Dessers tonight. I'm warming to the lad and I think he'll grow in this role. I prefer him to Danilo tbh. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
