Hopefully not a sign of things to come. He did 2 things in the whole 35 minutes he was on the pitch:
1. a stupid tackle within the first 20 seconds that on another day might have got him a straight red card
2. he actually only touched the ball just ONCE in 35 minutes - picked up a decent pass, cut inside and hit a weak shot at the Yam keeper.
Most of the time he ran about like a little laddie trying to join in an adult match. I was really expecting the guy - coming from a top English club - might be a bit more composed, intelligent and influential in his running and general play. Then again, I was also hoping the same from Osbourne, who looked lost and disinterested throughout the 90 as the game raged on around him.
Sure they will both improve, but very disappointing in both today.
