Indeed.Agree with this. For all that they didn't round things off, the football he got them playing was pretty excellent. Honestly it's going to be difficult to give a proper assessment of where the team, and Hogson, is at before we see them play against a few different kind of teams in this tournament. A bit early to be taking out the knives in any case.
The play was well structured, we kept possession well and created chances. We lacked a bit of luck and should have taken more of our chances.
The fact is, had we won the game Roy would be being praised and a lot of those fans blindly complaining about it would be convinced we were going to win it. It seems to some fans there is no middle ground.
Whilst obviously disappointed, I'll take the positives. A good performance, a young team and hopefull a bright future overall, as well as a few better results in this tournament.
