But Can They Do It On A Cold Wet Morning In Oakengates?

Leo went in goals as he had an itch he was eager to scratch, couldn't do anything about the three goals he conceded and came out well to win the ball.

Reeve had some good clearances and tackles, switched off once or twice but we live and learn

Ty made some good clearances and chases down the left hand side.

Levi made some nice challenges and chased the ball down well

Jacob set up an assist with a nice free kick and had some nice link up play

Arthur had some good runs and worked hard took a knock and wanted to come off after being stood on. Scored the first

Henley again had some good runs and charged the ball down well

Logan one of the positives from the day had some great runs and was always looking for the pass

Luke did really well in his role today stopped a fair few quick breaks by being in the right place at the right time nice assist from the corner. MOTM performance

Alex had a solid game made some important challenges and worked hard.

Taaj lots of running need to work on the positions and timings of runs and we will get there.

Lots of positives we had some great linkup play when going forward and bar the two possibly three mistakes that led to the goals we played well.

We do seem to struggle with the pace of the game on 3G and we really need to nail the basics of the game for all of our players the absolute fundamentals

we only get an hour with the kids on a Monday and I'll be honest it's nowhere near enough so of it's ok with everyone we will set some little exercises and if the kids can just do 15 mins minimum a day or whatever they can fit in it will help massively with this.

We made the game very easy for them in parts and this was due to them being more disciplined in roles for the team.

We need to nail down a keeper for the role as I am not really a fan of the swapping and changing the keeper each week aswell
