Woow! What a game. Harrassed well, pressing the defenders. Great assist for the first goal of the half. Then a cheeky chip of the keep from 25 (?) yards out. Then a an attempted bicycle kick which made the keeper pull off a great save.
The dude is also a giant! I hadn't quite seen him out there and has obviously spent some time in the Sumner .

We changed the whole 11 at half time, it was obvious immediately as the entire first half side did a warm down at half time.
Sinclair therefore got 45 mins under his belt. The oppo were poor but you could argue we were 6-0 up at half time and he was playing in a much weaker squad. No Chair, Field, Johansen, Paal (who looks decent going forward) supplying him. Instead it was Niko, a young centre mid, Bettache who also played well and Uncs. Bonne did well up top with Armstrong.
Armstrongs pace, strength, work rate were excellent. He demanded the ball, had a good first touch and awareness. Very unlucky not to score a couple but did cause havoc and assisted Thomas goal early in the second half. He puts himself about and is hard as nails. Looks fair in the air but hard to work out off 45 mins as we played most our footy on the floor which was good to see.
Kid is going to be a very special player I believe.

If we play him he won't get kicked off the park; he will just appear as useless as Dykes. As John Hartson said once, he was more nervous making his debut for WBA at 30+ than he was making his Arsenal debut at 19.....!
