JMD very ineffectual in the first half and his first two contributions in the second were a mishit corner and a ballooned free kick. I thought he was lucky to get as much time on the pitch as he did. I thought Clay enjoyed having Wright with him; Brophy had his man; the 2 young central defenders got up to the pace/expectancy of the game as it progressed.

I was very impressed with the control and ability of both strikers - Angol in particular. With backs to goal, both command the space in front of them well. Time will tell if that translates into goals, but it was also good to see them link up for the disallowed effort.

What disallowed effort ?
You mean the one that hit the side netting in the first half?

42: The O's have the ball in the net through Lee Angol who finishes a good move off but the offside flag cuts short the celebrations.

0-0 #LOFCLive

Ling 8 best game from him I have seen. Defensively very solid and above Judd's level. Actually looked semi competent going forward too.
Ekpiteta 7 slow start but grew into the game. His recovery and tackle against the speedy dwarf fella was brilliant.
Coulson 7 won't have too many easier games
Happe 8 going to excel this season.
Brophy 7 needs to release one touch earlier at times

Clay 8 my MoM. Continued where he left off last season
Wright 8. The Wright from Gillingham rather then Bradford. Calm on the ball, not just sideways. If he gets into the box like that will end up with a few goals too.

JMD 5 our weakest player on the day which surprised me. Think Dennis will start over him before long anyway

Angol 7 looked like a real asset. Brilliant touch. Him and Wilkinson are going to be a handful once they have had s few games together. Finish for his disallowed goal looked excellent.
Wilkinson 7 ditto above with his touch. Strong lad too.

Dennis n/a no time to impact, but looks quick
Alabi 6 not much time, but made a nuisance of himself
Seargent 6 nothing to do, one dodgy kick. Defense looked assured with him behind them still.

Think they're probably the fairest marks so far

If you think that failing to hold the ball in the corner and missing from about 5 yards out is a 6/10 then you really are as stupid as you sound. Do you fancy Alabi or something?

I notice you out Alabi in quite a few threads Isaac maybe it’s you who has the man crush on him but your in denial
