Away friendly match
That’s two 11 a side games in two days and we have learnt a lot.
In both games we started strong which is encouraging for the new season, when we are in the front foot, playing forward, using width we make things happen.
In that first 15 mins we worked the ball wide well, especially with Charlie and supported the forwards with midfield runs from Justin and Luca, both scoring.
We have learnt Preston takes great corners and we have some emerging talented full backs.
But, we also learnt the following ahead of our new season:
- three at the back brings pressure and only works if our midfield covers back
- we looked much more comfortable with 4 at the back and traditional formations
- pace is everything and we will need to work on our own fitness and pace in pre season.
I am really pleased with how the team are progressing and with 6 weeks training and more friendlies in August we will be ready for a winning season.
Kenzie was man of the match for an assured performance at left back, stepping into midfield too and scoring a header from a corner, well done.
