Yeah decent enough first half, were the better side and made some good chances

Stokes looked very busy if not that much came off for him, but encouraging enough

The ref is taking it seriously, lecturing the bench.

So they’ve at least mended Malife then.

Was he even hurt? Or did he take a few days off before joining the squad?

Still going to be relying on Marriott and Wing for the goals this season judging on some of the finishing I've seen.

Good first half, not so good second with all the changes.

Still can`t take a decent corner Savage.

The Rino/Wing midfield looked generally a fair bit better than Savage and Fraser imo

Lisbie looks a handful

Overall pretty good I’d say, generally played pretty well

Yikes. Terrible attempt at control from Lisbie in the Getafe box.

Far better finish, but offside.

Triffic ball from Savage to Kelv though.

Good test ends in defeat, thought we did well, did they only have one shot they scored with?

Last ten we created a lot there which was good. Not sure about that offside? Lots of pace and power up top now which I like

For most of the game I thought that we were good, created plenty without giving up many chances. The only thing missing was the finishing.
The increase in pace in the side seems good.

Sounds positive guys, thanx for your updates.
Getafe are La Liga ‘premier’ team, so regardless of whatever team(s) they put out, a decent work out
