I felt our Achilles heel was exposed again at set pieces (long throw ins free kicks corners) that when the ball is lumped into the box we're not commanding enough and panic when trying to clear the danger. When going forward we'd move it quickly then stop or go back before getting into the box (where's the quick break) finally we struggled to move the ball out of defence and resorted to Woodman just lumping it up to the forwards. On a plus note Robbie Brady puts great crosses in Ledson put a great shift in and some players I thought looked jaded after the heat in Spain and today so hopefully a bit of rest and recovery before the season starts at Wigan.

Nope, my flag but didn’t want to stand behind it as the view was slightly obstructed 👍

1st half side looked stronger, I really hope that McCann is involved on a regular basis but I have my doubts due to RL’s love for AB.

RL love for Ledson more like, never seen a centre mid give it away so much. Half the player McCann is.

RL doesn’t seem to rate McCann as highly as the fans do.

Heart of Midlothian tonight and the return of Gino oh Gino Ginnelly. I remember we signed him the season we knew CR7 would be leaving and he was described by AN as 'a project'. Looks like a failed project as he ended up going with us barely ever seeing him. In fact, he'll probably get more minutes tonight than he did in his entire time at PNE.
Anyone thinking we may be parading a new signing or two tonight? Not sure who's going to be there tonight Pebblers, but as it is still cricket season and Saturday is cricket day, we're taking the opportunity of a trip to our second home.

Can’t read too much into friendlies - but we’re looking good, pressing high and controlling the game for large parts against a team in Europe next season. Brady looks like a great signing if he stays fit.

Hearts fans LOL ‘should be beating a bog standard English side’. What about your bog standard league?

Decent game not sure about Brady as a wing back though, Woodburn did well, as a team passed it slicker than for a while plenty of positives

Lot of praise for Woodburn online. Could Brady play up front? Praise for DJ at LWB also.

Good game last night, especially for a friendly, tackles going in all game, good tempo and 2 decent footballing sides. That formation terrifies me though, it felt more 3142 with Brady and Potts very high up the pitch. Brady looks a class above, Woodburn looks a good option to DJ or for when DJ moves to lwb. Still a worry over who will score the goals and the pace of the back 3; I think Lindsay has moved ahead of Bauer myself

Note the save by Woodman in the first half however watch the move that led to the chance brilliant break

Should be a decent Leicester side as well. Iversen, Kasper, Evans, Maddison, Barnes, Perez & Vardy all in the squad to face us.
