I think the fact they only beat us 1-0 suggests they won't be up there. We made them look like prime Barcelona in the first half.Hopeless is being kind. Don't think we created a single chance all game. You look a good side though - fancy you to be up there this season, albeit you weren't tested at all today.
Oddly, despite the issues in the first couple of games, defensively we were solid. Owen Evans dominated his box well and the majority of shots were straight at him. In the midfield and up front we were completely absent though. Once Bennett was booked we had no-one prepared to put a tackle in. Young may as well have not been on the pitch for all the use he was, and Colwill tried but can't do it all. As for Bowman and Taylor up front, some will say they got no service, I'll say they were just crap. Bowman looks a shadow of the player he was and Taylor tried but couldn't get anything going.
Flynn wants to add to the team, but can't unless someone comes in for Kinsella and Bradbury. With that being said, Kinsella would have offered so much more than Young did yesterday, even just in terms of energy. It's a big week for us and I've a feeling the board may be forced to stretch the budget a little further.
