I'm going for Junior Hoilett not sure if that's how his names spelt but I thought he was bloody good and Kirklands save from him in the second half was superb.
Andy Johnson had a cracking game too lord knows if we can just get 40 odd games out of him he'll be great in this league. |  |

Faurlin for me Ted.
when it got a bit hairy in the second half he was putting in well timed challenges all over the pitch.
like signing a new player! |  | | |

Good to meet your old man at last Stuart and a load of lads from NI poring out of the C&S.
I thought AF got better/stronger as the game went on and started a bit nervous? | |

for a first game of the season I thought the lads did well
we haven't had a great pre season so I wasn't expecting a great deal
thought the midfield 1st half was very good but faded the 2nd esp (henry)
Hoilett & Johnson were sometimes unplayable and a bit more composure we could have had more
weak links were Hill, Traore , Green and Zamora who still goes for those stupid high foot challenges
anyway have to go for Johnson as MOM never stopped running and putting there Defenders under pressure non stop |  |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Yeah I was well impressed by Johnson, just hope and pray he stays injury free and he could be great for us! |  | | |

I like the look of Johnson. Picked up where he left off when he got injured. If he doesn't get injured I think he'll be banging them in regularly - real quality at this level.
Zamora's also picked up where he left off last season. Unfortunately. Think his hip will be fine as he'll be watching from the bench most of the time. |  |

Faurlin for me, does the simple things well.
The only issue I have with Hoilet is that he should pass to a team mate in a better position, instead to shooting from more difficult positions. It's about the team. |  | | |

IMO Barton hoilett and faurlin were our best players, but at a push I'd say Barton for motm |  |

Harsh. Like Derry, he allows the others to play. Thought he did fine.
Kirkland Motm for me. | | | |

Didn't all quite come together today, but if Holiett plays like that for the rest of the season he'll end with 10-15 goals and twice that in assists. |  | | |

well, he forces everyone to play to cover for the fact he doesn't do anything, yes. Like a strange kind of motivation tool. |  |

Kirkland meant they were still in the game, but for us AJ was excellent. His touch, movement etc is premier class but I sense frustration when time after time no one anticipates what he's going to do. He is also excellent at dragging players away and creating room for others. I think he would benefit from having Adel feeding him but we aren't going to see that I guess. |  |

Not MOTM but I think the big Kosova up front for Wednesday will do well for them this season. Real handful. |  | | |

Country mile Faurlin,great to see him back full of confidence and trying his best to control and create midfield,shame we didn't have at least one more midfielder that can tackle like him,so pleased for the boy.
Johnson was close 2nd,great attacking and helping out defence aswell.
Can live without Barton,li=ucky to get away with penalty shout and Traore needs to go,total lack of commitment would like to see Suk Yung given a chance.
Enjoyed the game going forward was conserned about our midfield on the counter attack and Henry didn't impress Mbia any day over him. |  | | |

Faurlin as MOTM
Hoilett caused a lot of trouble but once in the box it was 'head down' rather than looking for the pass. Quite a few times there were players available in the box in great goal scoring positions just waiting for the pass |  | | |

It shows that so many different players have been nominated how good we were today. Hoillet for me |  |

Bloody good day at the office. So much more than pre-season promised. Hoilett was immense. Pleased that Barton got a degree of gratitude too. Thought SWP was an interesting option late on and caused a few problems for them. Great to see Faurlin back in the mix too. |  | | |

Kirkland overall but for us Hoilett IMO, looked more like the player we were meant to have signed from Blackburn. Barton, Faurlin and AJ all had good games. Zamora was absent for most of the game and has noticeably poor mobility now. |  | | |

in key situations he should have passed.
Our first goal...a shot? that is waay off that Nedum gets to?
Hoilet is good, he can run at players but he must cross or pass to be effective. | | | |

I'll offer you my support in this, Ted.
From my sofa it seemed that the Swedish people were treated, not to a feast of swedes as one might expect, but to a feast of tricky scampering provided by young David.
If he can learn to dink the occasional ball past his befuddled opponent to the feet of a fellow man he'll be even better.
If he doesn't leave. Which he will. |  | | |
