Cavalieri looked unconvincing at times, lucky we've got the best goalkeeper in the world as first choice
Kelly will prove to be a handy utility player this season and a more than able deputy to Johnson. Jovanovic looked much better this time around, he really is the left sided Kuyt isn't he. Pacheco I thought tried a little too hard to bag himself a goal but to be fair, in his limited minutes he's had this was his worst performance by far and there was still so many positives to take from it and he's only just turned 19 a few months back so he's got a bright future ahead of him. Cole looked great.
Generally speaking, I thought the team worked very well as a unit, especially Cole who has only been here two weeks and Jovanovic not much longer. Really seemed like they were starting to gel, which is certainly most promising. MotM for me was probably Joe Cole, although I think Jovanovic deserves a shout.
edit: Really hope N'Gog rises to the challenge this year, he was very 50/50 - he'd do something brilliant then F**k something else up.
double edit: While the fluidity of play was pleasant, I hope we show more respect/discipline/caution against stronger sides who will exploit this and severely make us pay.
