Blimey we look a bit ropey at the back.

Much better second half and I think Andre Green has found his position.  Through the middle. We still need players.

Decent 2nd half. Defence is still a worry. Andre Green could be our secret weapon this season.

You joke but Wolves would have claimed that.

Poor first half, much better in the second. Not overly convincing but I'm sure the one's who went over enjoyed the win.

30 boring victories like that will do very nicely indeed.

Doesn't count if it's not under floodlights.

We have to find a central midfielder to replace Whelan.  We need another striker too.

Someone/anyone with a wheeled zimmer frame would make an ideal replacement for Whelan.
We need to offload him, Tshibola and Gardner, and if its true that Jedinak is also on the way out of VP, then play Thor as a DM, and use Lansbury, Hourihane, Lyden, Doyle-Hayes or O'Hare when he is fit, to play alongside Jack.
As for a striker,we need to sell the likes of McCormack, Hogan and Kodjia and replace them with a few loanees, to go with our youngsters, in my opinion.

Missed the game but looked at the initial knicker wetting posts on this thread about formation, selection etc but it's just a friendly stepping up preparation for the start of the league campaign.
