August 9, 20251 yr acdc/acid mom . TSL we need to bottle his kicking , good game for GJ , Burstow really important, & another good performance for Conway , like a new signing . Pace is like a breath of fresh air , seems like weve been lacking since Dapo & Charles . (Tho apparently last season Morley was the fastest at the club)
August 9, 20251 yr Popular Post Enjoyed that. Proper in ya face football that we’ve not seen enough of. Few people around me moaning about Tutu, but I thought he was good. Supported the play and no issues defensively. Sheehan and Simons outstanding. Randall was basically a defender stopping them from playing out and did it absolutely brilliantly. His best performance for us so far in my opinion. Worked his tits off and that’s all you can ask. Gale, looks a talent but some questionable decision making. On the other side Cozier Duberry is a top player. That pluck out of the sky… my word. That was truly world class and his assist for Burstow was ace, but that was all about the striker. Don’t see us scoring many goals like that. Getting a striker to aggressively make a run like that and finish neatly 👏🏻👏🏻
August 9, 20251 yr The two wingers had them second guessing all game, so exciting to watch. And Randall was very encouraging I thought.
August 9, 20251 yr 10 hours ago, desperado said: Best scenario to deal with all the Kenny hypochondriacs is for Burstow to score in a whites win. I liked what I saw of him last week especially with his link-up, hold-up play and bringing others into the game. Add a goal or two into the mix, with Dalby at the ready soon, then we might not have so many getting disillusioned with an untried Irish lad signing a contract with a Scottish club. 3-1 - Burstow with at least one. I’m having this. Kenny who?
August 9, 20251 yr Great performance, having two wingers with pace was so enjoyable to see, Plymouth couldn’t cope at times. And it’s early days with gayle, when he gets fully match fit and can strike up a partnership with Conway similar to acd and cogley we could take some stopping
August 9, 20251 yr Feel so positive and up for the season after that. Conway excellent, TSL kicking and distribution best we’ve had in ages, simons solid and just screened and kept things simple, wingers fast and direct, burstow hard working and deserved his goal, Sheehan up for it, Randall kept us moving forward with simple but effective link up play, unit off the bench to see the game out. Apart from a free header at 2-0 they created nothing. We won’t get bullied this season like we have for years and schuey wont be fucking about with the likes of macatee for long. Fuck it, we’re going up.
August 9, 20251 yr All good Similar stat as last week 13 shots, only 2 on target, this week they both went in We need to get more on target but that will come Been crying out for a player like Simons in the middle and ADC could be a great signing Just struggling with the #10 role so far, not been enthused by either Randall or McAtee from what I've seen Keep it up and we'll be up there challenging

And unexpectedly she asked if "we're" winning? She was fascinated with Lofty, so that cost £20 in the club shop after the game, she was completely worn out after it

August 9, 20251 yr Top marks for Schumacher picking that starting eleven. There were hints he might make a few changes, and those he made were brave and made a nonsense of some of the comments on here about individual players. Including me. By dropping JDC and replacing him with OT there was far more cover down the right flank and created a role for Sheehan to partner Simons in the middle so that either could use their distribution skills most effectively and opened the door for more direct football which proved effective today. I was mistaken - Sheehan does have a role where he doesn’t have to feel he has to take responsibility all the time or fact about with the ball and as long as he sticks to that he’ll be fine. It’s a good system for most opposition even though it puts a lot of demands on Toal and Johnston. But they are warriors.
August 9, 20251 yr Can't think of anyone who had a less than 7/10 performance. Those 2 wingers absolutely terrorised them all game and we now look solid at the back thanks to the steel in midfield with Simons. Great game, really entertaining.

Fancy Cozier-Duberry and Gale to be mesmerising and frustrating in equal measure over the season, but they could be the key to a serious promotion challenge if they can maintain this sort of form, especially at home. You're right, times they need to look up and play others in, but both are pacy, tricky handfuls who are going to cause a lot of teams a lot of problems

Brighton lad may go on to bigger things, but any team with two wide lads with skill and pace need them to create goals. I'm confident they will, but some teams will double up/find a way to nullify some of that pace, meaning they will need an extra string to the bow.

There was a point where ACD got hold of it first half and three Plymouth lads all went after him
August 9, 20251 yr I don't know if it's just perception but we seem to be winning possession higher up the pitch more often than we have before It felt like it was even in evidence during last week's defeat
August 9, 20251 yr Great performance. Wingers doing what they are supposed to do, some decent corners and a captains performance from Toal.

No doubt he's gone on loan for a couple of seasons to gain experience and improve his game. If he adds a load of end product to his game, he could go a long way.
August 9, 20251 yr @Anidunno if you heard Callys mention at ht it followed Linger played for my daughters wedding and sons birthday

Fortunately, I dont think hes anywhere near prem level, not least cos hes small Which is great for us
