I know it was Bristol's reserve side mostly but bloody hell Traore excites me, loads of one touch passes and quick play. Looked very good. If we got Rashica and Barclay we'd have a very good team.

Can't remember a time when we could change a team and play so comfortably. It really looks like we have a squad at last.
I can remember plenty of times when we changed the team and always played crap.

I can remember plenty of times when it didn’t matter who was picked as we were inevitably crap.

Very pleasing indeed. Work still to do, but things are looking up! Good to see goals coming from our forwards, great for confidence.

I thought we played very well and started very strongly. Could have been 4 up by the time Traore scored that fantastic goal.

Front 3 had lots of pace and movement, Ramsey looked good, defence bizarrely solid. Just...surprisingly good. Even the stream was good.

Traore played a number of reverse and through balls. Looks a good un' and that finish...amazing.

I'd play this lot and drop those big time charlie boring overpaid tossers in the first XI. Either that or review the tactics.

Absolutely, it was like they'd been playing together for years. The movement was excellent.

Are there any links to the goals?


SKY showed them just after 11pm so they will probably on the SKY website.

Didn't see the game but I've seen some clips and judging by those, and the media reports, it was a top class performance.  Can only be good for Traore and Watkins to score, and Keinan to have another good game.  Limited opponents of course but you still have to put them away.

My only objection to the entire evening is that we looked like we playing in a Spurs kit.

Fair play to them, I didn’t expect that after seeing the team. Some nice goals, good debut from Traore and a simple passage into the next round. What’s not to like?

Anyone who saw the full 90 comment on how Guilbert played?

Great result but let’s not get carried away at beating Bristol City reserves.

Wasn't it the same stage of the same competition last year when we changed the entire team and best Crewe 6-0?
