Brighton friendly. Positives and Negatives. 19:34 - Aug 2 with 1441 viewsfelly1

Positives.

1.Bazunu looked good, a couple of decent saves and looked confident throughout the game.

2. Stills substitutions and change in formation worked a treat.
5-3-2 with attacking full backs worked really well.
Edwards came on a looked decent .

Negatives.

1. 4-2-3-1 formation didn't work. Appreciate Brighton are miles better than us but Bree and Manning were getting ripped apart by Mitoma and Minteh.

2. Sesay is not ready to start matches , they tore through us at will particularly first half. We'll need Flynn back there pronto alongside Charles.

3. Quarshie was hit and miss. Good in the air and showed his pace but badly at fault particularly for the first goal where he stood off Minte.

Forgot to add Robinson as a positive. He looks a excellent player, like Dibling mark 2.

Jay Robinson is better than Dibling he's more versatile & has the right work ethic & attitude unlike Dibling.
WS trust in Jay because he's a gem.

Two in midfield was the big problem, the change at half time allowed us to develop play. Until the change we picked up no second balls and struggled to create.

One positive is that we got a draw with a good PL side who were playing a full strength team. That's a step above where we've been in previous pre-seasons.

I think there are some major weaknesses in this team - and there still will be in a month's time - but you don't have to be great to do well in this league.

The problem with the midfield is who stays and goes.

If no one else goes then a midfield trio of Downes, Charles & Fernandes is going to be as good as anyone else's in the division, especially when you add Smallbone & Aribo, who although get a lot of stick are competent Championship level players.

Fixed it for you

Going by Stills comments , Aribo will likely be gone too before the window slams shut.

Priority number 1 is to bring in a creative attacking midfielder.

i think if saints can offload dibling for the right money then we can hold onto fernandes for at least one more season.
