We are terrible. De Vries is pants, Payne is pants! Extremely average and there's not a chance we get out of group stage!
This game showed exactly the difference between a championship level player and a decent Aleague one.
De Vries may have a good cross on him and that works when you have Wood in the middle, but defensively De Vries is gobshite. Too slow, and immobile. Fiorst goal was all his error for letting the striker get passed him and then not even leaping for the ball.
Second goal showed why Crocombe really shouldnt be our #1. He lost his temper/focus in the first half and never regained it, their second goal was a simple one to stop and he barely moved! Paulsen stops that all day everyday.
On the positive side, Randall and Bayliss looked decent, both troubling the Finnish defence - even if they were on tired legs. Just the finishing was lacking.
