Thoughts on today's game are mixed really. Something to build on going forward but we have to stop thinking we are capable of taking any punishment any team gives us for 90 minutes. We are a team full of pace but only use it when we are 2 down. I would like to see us on the front foot a bit more. Not saying do this for the whole game as we will get battered but it is football after all and we need to play some.

I agree Davey, if we open the play earlier, do we get picked off though. Who knows the answer. I know today the players gave it a good go, can't ask anymore. Arsenal are good team and scored two good goals. Finish top of the bottom mini league, about 14th. I'll be happy.

It is a difficult question to answer. I don't want us to go hell for leather up the pitch either. We do well though when we snap at the heels. It fine to sit and defend and I see the benefit of it to keep us in the game. I think we just do too much of it. We haven't got world class defenders so we tend to get battered even when we defend.

1st goal had a edge of a 'fluke' about it? 2nd goal from a Danilo mistake? Trying to be clever? Go long lad, basics. Taking nothing away from the finish, no one saving that.
Turner steady on his debut, tried to move the ball quickly. No fault for either goal IMO. Then shoots of progress after a mediocre pre season.
