AndyM3000 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Blast I thought this kicked awf at 7pm... never mind it's HT and we're winning. Funny the youngsters seem to know how to hold a lead far better than the senior squad. Ohhh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted November 9, 2011 Moderator Share Posted November 9, 2011 3-2. We don't look like we can deal with them from set pieces; we look a bit ropey a the back in all honesty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted November 9, 2011 Moderator Share Posted November 9, 2011 Couple of bright runs from Grealish and Cameron still looks lively, we just look short at the back and up front - Johnson is our most likely scorer for getting on the end of something I think.

OutByEaster? Posted November 9, 2011 Moderator Share Posted November 9, 2011 All over. Fair enough result on what I saw - Rosenborg look a decent side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacemanscott Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 First time I've seen anything of Grealish and was impressed. The kid's got bags of skills and was being doubled-up upon as soon as they realised he could skip round players with ease. Got brushed off the ball once or twice but still very promising indeed. I also thought Connor Taylor looked very comfortable on the ball and could be a little belter. Daniel Johnson looked strong, composed and skillful, Johnson was decent on the left and I thought Drennan looked a fantastic hold-up player when he got the service (is it this fella who Sir_Gary_Cahill regards one of the worst players he's seen?!). Problem was our defence as a unit looked dodgy. Rosenburg were ok but we made it a bit easy for them in and around the box. Overall, I'm very impressed and look forward to seeing these lads progress.

sir_gary_cahill Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 drennan was awful when i've seen him but that was only 2 or 3 times, i was right about grealish though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Daniel Johnson looks like a great prospect he is superb, he just needs a chance in the 1st team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacemanscott Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 drennan was awful when i've seen him but that was only 2 or 3 times, i was right about grealish though Yep, hats off to you on that one, he looks the real deal. In fact, I found myself willing every player to pass it to him as I felt as though he'd never lose the ball and would dance around however many players tried to crowd him out. A brilliant prospect, looks up there with the young Wayne Rooney, but you often see young lads who have amazing ability, only for them to simply fizzle out. We'll see in a couple of years.

spacemanscott Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 how far do you think he is from the first team? It's tricky because unlike players such as Rooney and Rodwell he isn't powerful and would get steam rollered in the first team at a young age. It's probably a few years away yet.
