don't agree mate... we created plenty of chances and IMO plenty of positives

1) Kennedy, Stefanovic, Omozusi, Hoolahan, Clingan & Lupoli all made promising debuts

2) Playing the ball out from the back NOT hoofing it

3) Picking up the second ball in the middle of the park until Russell replaced Clingan

4) The team gelling much quicker than I thought they would

5) Fluent passing football

6) Played like the homeside

7) Created 5 or 6 clear cut chances

Having said all that we must continue to improve, take our chances and perform much more consistently than we have since our championship season

  - Disagree, Russell for me has high energy and works hard but doesn't have any vision (NCFC) - Taxi 4 Johnson, Aug 10, 11:26:38
