Damnit. I wanted to see Faour in action, but missed it...how did he do? Could someone describe his playing style?

Did Brahim play?

Did ok,a few things didn't come off.

Cross between Ibra and Negredo.

But with less facial hair.

Did Brahim play?

Yes, wasn't on very long though. Didn't have chance to do much.

Again, not on for very long so hard to describe his style. Did score two goals though, first made it look too easy, and the second was a lovely free kick. Clearly got skills but you can't extrapolate much about either from today.

Very short cameo and didn't have much chance to show. But he did almost dance through six Chicago defenders, so you could see he was trying to contribute. He has just come to the team and you could tell.

Faour looks a bit more useful upfront than Buckley! Looks a really classy player. To be fair to Buckley, he looked an awful lot better out wide

Completely different when coming in off that left hand side, two goals very quickly and should have had a hat trick.

Was not expecting that to be half as entertaining as it was. The club could really push attendances for U16 and U18 games if this is going to be the quality on display regularly.

Highlights for the goals coming next if you missed them.

Need to play these or EDS games at the mini-stadium before home games I reckon, kick off at say 11-30am or midday.

I had actually though about Winnie the Pooh.

My first reaction was Kaka! Only 10 minutes though.
