Pre-Season Tour
Results
Overall, some good results. Defensively I think we need to improve drastically. Conceding some stupid goals against teams like Moreirense and even losing in a game we dominated against FC Red Bull. I was not impressed with the defending however, I managed to give a few youngsters some minutes with the likes of Walkes, Winks, Onomah and Vickers playing a couple of games and they were great in their performances. Walkes proving that the crossing stat means nothing.

Assists: 1
Average Rating: 7.5
Good pre-season for his first pre-season with us. Might need to get more assists in future and the average rating doesn't say much. But 5 goals in 7 games you can't really argue with.
Manager Thoughts
Good start, some decent results there but at the same time some concerns. But I have complete faith in my ability to address these concerns. Some good performances by new guys and young guys, they seem to understand the way I want to play which I am glad about.
