Great game of football for the boys today.

Every single one of them where brilliant.

1) Blake.

Was doing really well defensively, but was set a challenge to have 3 touches of the ball everytime he got it, this lead to him getting on the ball and being brave in possession, and ultimately led to at least one of our goals.

Man of the match for workrate and for taking on board a challenge and giving the challenge 100% 👏

2) jaden

Brilliant work rate and he kept making really good runs into space between defenders, on another day he gets passed to loads in those spaces, did well to keep making the runs despite not getting the ball there.

3) denys

Absolute brilliant performance, felt like something would happen every time he got possession, worked incredibly hard getting back to defend as well.

4) elliot

After last week's passing masterclass he decided to spend the whole game dribbling and taking players on, showed some great skills, unlucky not to score.

5) liam

His best work today probably went unnoticed, dropping into defensive holes and helping protect the goal, looked good going forwards as well. As usual could have a highlight reel of skills to himself.

6) james.

Bagged himself a brace, worked really hard, another who took on a coaching point well during the game about pressing/gambling on players missing the ball or making mistakes.

I will send a thanks to the opposition for the loan of harry and will who went in goal for us, both seemed really nice kids.

Lots of positives to take from the game.

The next 6 weeks of training we will be focusing on ball mastery, so we may find they will have a tendency to dribble lots and possibly lose possession a lot in games. This is nothing to worry about. The more comfortable they get on the ball the easier the game will be for them in the long run.

Let's go arlesey
