2-1 - Mitchell and Henry. Butterworth (I think? for them).
Three really good goals. [Post edited 27 Jul 18:02]

I was really impressed with the performance and we coul/should have been further ahead at the break. All of the new players contributed well with McBride showing some lovely skill. The three at the back worked well and was flexible enough to adjust shape to become a four when needed. Henry's free kick was class.
It became a bit disjointed after the substitutions in the second half, but we look to be playing more progressively, whilst still predominantly playing football. |

He bowled two really good balls to dismiss Holder and Athanaze on what was an unresponsive pitch without any real footmarks to aim for. He does not look phased when batsmen try and take him on, which is also a good trait. I read some where that he has the sixth highest release point for a spinner of all time which will help him extract bounce. Working on the nuances with Jeetan Patel will help him develop.
Smith kept well and from limited viewing looks like he can hit a long ball, which will be invaluable with the tail.
I felt a bit sorry for Mark Wood who bowled much better than his figures suggest. I wonder if they will give Potts and Pennington a game at Edgbaston? |

What an epic collapse that a 90s England team would have been proud of. All credit for a better West Indies performance but what a session for England. Root and Brook last night really changed the game after the two quick wickets. |

Not after signing the new left back and we also have Armstrong as left sided depth. |

They pressed more and much higher as well. We had a good period after we scored but then drifted deeper and deeper. I get it limit the space for them to play through but ultimately if good players have time and space eventually they will find a gap or a tired player will switch off. |

The key will be how we cope with their wide players. Pedri has also been excellent alongisde Rodri. |

And another good day.
It is always good when a plan comes off. Atkinson did well to get Holder to have to fend off a short ball. |

I wouldn't be surprised if we already have a loan keeper lined up who will be available just before the season starts. |

Will the politicians help, or will it be in spite of, or will, as you say they do nothing and jump on a photo opportunity? That is my point. [Post edited 5 Jul 11:10]

Hopefully they will both work together to help the club secure training and community facilities, although I wont hold my breath. |

Not really. I emailed the Labour candidate for the stadium ward asking her how a vote for her would benefit the football club and she failed to even acknowledge my email. Not surprisingly I will not be voting for her. |

He has the physical talents but lacks the drive to maximise these. It is a good bit of business to get him off the wage bill. |

I expected him to sign for a EFL team so this is really good news. With a full preseason behind him he offers a pace and power option up top.
Get in a goalkeeper, left back, two centre backs, a midfielder and another wide player and that's a decent core. |
