Went to the game last night and had a great time...even tho Everton looked pretty shit honestly. lots of passing it back and forth along the back line but never advanced the ball very far up the pitch
the Union looked the better team the whole game, and found ways to advance the ball into the final third much easier
I think we missed the creativity and running that we would get from Osman (still getting used to him being one of our best players, who was at the practice i saw Tuesday morning but not at the open practice the same afternoon. moyes said it was a groin strain when i asked him.
Vellios looked very class and composed around the ball, and i can distinctly remember him tracking back into midfield and winning the ball at one point
Overall the team looked tired, probably attributed to two-a-days in this heat we have been having
Still great to see them for the first time tho...and excited to see them play again Saturday we are driving down to DC for the game.
Also,
Asked Rodwell after the open practice and he confirmed he is changing his number to 4
Asked Coleman if he is moving to the back and he says he doesn't know its up to the gafffer
Asked Barkley how his leg was feeling and he said alot better
