Assume Isak is no.48? If so this kid knows how to play the game. Ok it’s against Bromley but he reads the game well and is very cool under pressure and can pick a pass very nicely.
If the number 40 for QPR doesn't make it in football, he's a shoe-in for the next Lions tour!!

Without sounding too much of a negative grump but I'm pretty sure Bromley have their reserve team out, with their first team playing tomorrow. So I wouldn't say it's a gap between Champ and L1, moreso Champ and L2/NL.
Still very enjoyable though
Bromley have said that they are doing the same as us.
Half first team tonight & half first team tomorrow.

Bromley were my local side as an early teenager. Watched either them, Welling or Cray Wanderers most weeks when Rangers were away. Nice ground. Pain the arse to get to as 61 bus stopped at the wrong end of Hayes Lane.
I too watched a charity match there c 1983. Still have Ian Dawes sock ties in my self store unit in Brecon. Not there tonight the ouzo in Rhodes is more appealing.

I don't want to be premature but, so far, in pre season, we've won 4, drawn 1. Can we complete the set against Wimbledon, tomorrow. And carry on against Millwall and the first few league games.

He is very slight. Football wise he's the best player on the pitch,moving the ball quickly. Faurlin vibes.
However, he'll get steamrolled in the Championship. Fully expect us to get a CM in and he goes on loan.
I've not seen enough of him but would he definitely faitr badly in the Championship if he can move the ball quickly, read the game before others etc?
It feels like we should have a look at him this season, especially if Madsen is out for a periuod of time, and if we think he does need more he can go out on loan later in the year.
He’s the best player on the pitch, playing against league one oppo who would you loan him to?
Sometimes I'm amazed at posts. He was head and shoulders our best player tonight and that includes a midfield of Morgan and Chair
The lad as played European football and I think he as a very good chance of forcing his way into the 1st team this season, certainly into the squad
Yes it wasn't to testing a game but he looked really good...
That was a pretty good workout for the lads... I commented about Charles and Ward ....saying that I thought Ward was hard done by not being 1st choice... think I will take that back... Charles looks a class act
Very enjoyable that

If Alemayhu is the bolter from this preseason and he genuinely becomes part of the matchday squad that would be a huge, unexpected positive. And fair play to Nourry/Belk for identifying him 12 months ago.
That said, pre season is very different from the Championship. We shouldn’t expect much from him, given he has one appearance in the Championship in a dead rubber. It’d be great if he plays a big role, but let’s see it as all upside. There is still a big valley to bridge between Bromley pre-season and Millwall away in the Championship.
It would be prudent to bring in an experienced central midfielder still. But fair play to the lad. He appears to have stepped up and taken his chance.

I'm not a fan of all this long travelling for PSFs nonsense, but to go half way round the world, hand down a thumping to Bromley, and then fly back to give the rest of the squad legs time and chance to emulate tonight's performance, that's impressive!
Tonight Alemayehu was truly eye catching, and not only due to his beautiful over head kick goal.
I've been trying to keep a lid on my enthusiasm for him for some time now. I've seen too many false dawns when it comes to youngsters at our club. But I really do think this lad is a rising star. He's not 100% ready to start in the first team, but he should certainly be included in the senior squad.
Keep an eye in Isak.

Isak did get caught in possession early in the game and was lucky that Brom didn't make more of it.
But from that point on he was probably the best player on the pitch and, along with Illy, absolutely ran the show - and just a bar width away from scoring a second worldie!
Machel (From Bromley with Love podcast) was extremely positive about us in his verdict video tonight:
