Ramos made some surprising changes to the lineup with bent/defoe starting upfront and giving boateng his league debut(think he will be a big player for you lot).

Wasn't the best performance for you guys, but guess you have to take it slowly with a new manager.

Bent scored in the first half with a nice finish and there was some good link up play between him and defoe. But then early on in the second half luke young scored a screamer. Your defence is still very dodgy and dawson nearly cost you guys another goal with a slip near the half way line and then getting away with a handball in the box.

Will be interested to see how you guys progress and who ramos decides to bring in during the winter transfer window.

Unfortunately I missed this one. Couldn't get a stream for it. How did Boateng play? It's definitely going to take time for Ramos but the fact that he has pulled off a win in the cup and a draw here is respectable.

Not that great. After all it was his first start in the league.

But he has great potential, rated as Germany's best youngster.
