I think you're being very generous. He might have seen Real Betis play on TV once. He got his feet in a twist on the first backpass, & nearly let it over the line. I thought OK, nerves, give him a chance. He couldn't take goal kicks, could barely reach the half way line kicking it from his hands, and the highlight was when AD told his girlfriend what he wanted him to do, & she went & shouted at him in Spanish. I saw him drive away with a guy in a big BMW; his agent, I presume. Good luck to him!
As for the rest - what a brilliant display - on the floor, passing, moving, & keeping possession. There was a period just after the start where Chester seemed to go a good 5 minutes without touching the ball. Clever little through balls for Mangham to run on to; he must have been dissapointed to only get three. It was like watching Arsenal, but with a dodgier keeper.
For those who say N'da is class - well Foyle is classier. Short passes, long passes, row Z (sorry, row H at the FES) when neccessary. With a keeper who didn't speak English, he organised at set plays, and when the young lads came on later, made sure they kept the shape. Really good display.
