Put some decent crosses in, nice to see a couple of guys come through the ranks...give them a chance I say, shame we don't have a young striker knocking around.
As good a debut as you could expect to see from a young left back. Good first-time crosses. Got caught out of position a couple of times but very promising.
He kept it simple, never took risks and read the game pretty maturely for someone so inexperienced.
Pards was pleased with him - but said he would have liked him to get forward more, as that is a major part of Basey's game.
The important thing here, is that Basey is a left footed, left back playing in position.
Which meant that there is little disruption; Mills and others can then play in their own positions.
In our top 3 performers yesterday. For a debut, thats pretty good. Has a he got the consistency though.......? he'll need to prove that in the next few games.
i thought his crosses were crap, he had plenty of time and space and can't recall any of them reaching one of our players but that might be down to the forwards

His distributuion was first class - attitude everything - made myself and Large who bigged him up right to do just that as well.

LOL. Not sure 'young' is a word you could use for Mr Dickson ;-)

He's 22.
Basey is 18 with very little experience - and surely nobody expects him to be the finished article?
On the day, he probably played more effectively than Mills.
His technique of striking the ball was spot on and I have high hope for him - our very own Gareth Bale
PS - YES - he is a dead ball specialist but sadly will not get a sniff while Reidy is in the team
