Sven kicked off his first game with success as we beat Doncaster 3-1! We went behind but then goals from Corradi (who had a great game surprise surprise!), a brilliant sole effort from Richards and Mpenza. Match highlights: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hhU0EGrVlc We now go off to Sweden for two more friendlies against Örgryte IS and Carlstad United. After that we are definitely playing Shrewsbury and Valencia (Thomas Cook Trophy) and rumour has it we are playing Lille at some point as well!
Corradis goal was a stunner, but Richards was due to the fact the opposition couldn't defend and some deft touches. I'm more concerned about the easy goal that we conceded. Very slack defending. All in All, a good first hitout
Another good hitout by the boy's in Sweden. Not sure who the team was, (i'm at school, and dodging teachers while posting this) but apparently Bianchi,Corradi,Samaras & a kid scored. Apparently Fernandes and the kid (who played on the right side and caused a bit of havoc apparently) imposed themself well on the game. When i get home i'll quote the article.
We played Orgryte and won 4-1. The "kid" was Logan - he played a blinder of a match and I hope he will follow the likes of Richards, Onouha and Johnson. Bianchi looks like a really good player and 3 forwards scored! Match highlights: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LeFRq5mDCY
Any of you see the Carlstad match? I'm an admirer of Bianchi and want to see the goals. Hopen Man City does well this year, maybe you can manage a point against United this year, eh?
Corradi is enjoying a nice run of form huh? He's showing a different side from last year. We will see what happens when City plays some caliber defences. Bianchi looks good though, anyone know anything about Geovanni other than he used to play at Barca?
