Long is being found out again and again . He’s not s starting RB. Adequate cover but no more than that.

 

[battman]

Feels like the midfield is getting too easily bypassed, allowing their forwards to have a free run on our defenders.

40 yard shot cracks the post ......not looking good

fingertipped onto the bar by Eastwood

 

[cassox]

Eastwood actually tipped it onto the crossbar

Fosu has some nifty feet! Almost got himself through 3/4 defenders within a foot of him,and into the box.

 

[yellowbow]

Longs lack of pace being exposed. He looks like he’s running through treacle. Maybe a tough pre-season has affected him more than the others given his history with injuries?

Long looks as if he is caught out being a right back defender and cover for a woefully inadequate right sided centre back (whoever he is!). Oh do we need a proper centre back.

And yet he did well in L1 (you know the Lg we are in) last season.

Dickie? Come off it.

End of the first half

Impressed: Whyte, Hall, Fosu

Disappointed: Mousinho, Long, Gorrin

 

[Sarge]

2-0 down at HT .... expecting plenty of changes for, and during, 2nd half

 

[ZeroTheHero]

We look decent going forward and Eastwood is, well, just being Eastwood.

In between - not much.

I’m watching it via Rangers TV and from my perspective he’s getting caught too far forward and they are exploiting the gap he’s leaving behind.

Whilst it's early days yet against strong opposition, so probably too early to judge properly, I completely forgot Rodriguez Gorrin was on the pitch.

 

[Mellowyellow]

Long hasn't kept their player quiet, his lack of pace will be the thing that costs us this season.
Ok as cover, but never first choice. Some great saves from Eastwood.

It’s a game of opinions but I would be amazed if a starting RB is not signed to be ahead of Long.

Henry has also had some good moments

 

[beyondthefourth]

Bear in mind this is an upper-Championship level side, playing a decent strength side, who have more friendlies under their belt than we do.

We're not supposed to be playing at our best just yet, we're not at full fitness or sharpness.
