SUMAS BOSS PRAISES EXCELLENT EXECUTION IN AWAY WIN

- By ANDY PRESTON apreston@wokingham.today

WOKINGHAM & EMMBROOK manager Eliot Whitehouse praised his team’s execution of their game plan as they picked up their first away win of the season.

“From our part it was a really good game and we got the result we wanted which was really pleasing,” said Whitehouse.

“In terms of the performanc­e we set out a game plan that really worked for us and had a plan b that we had to adjust to.

“Unfortunat­ely our captain and centre forward Jake (White) suffered a severe injury in the first 20 minutes of the game which meant we had to change the shape and personnel but in many ways worked really well for us.

“It was our intention to go that route if we weren’t successful in the first 10 minutes so in general the boys did really well, followed the game plan excellentl­y and got the result we wanted.”

Whitehouse highlighte­d the impact of Alan Bossman, Charley Tuttle and Nathan Mindomba as they picked up three points on the road.

He continued: “We felt Alan (Bossman) had a massive input when he came on, he’s played at a higher level and will really make a difference if we can get him in a good physical space

“We also felt Charley Tuttle was excellent and dealt with their right winger who we knew would be a threat.

“He showed his quality from dead balls and in possession he was outstandin­g.

“Nathan (Mindomba) always gives us an excellent workload and his physical capabiliti­es are outstandin­g.

“He did really well with that and we’re just trying to develop his quality in the final third.”

The Sumas are back on home territory this weekend when they host Windsor in the Combined Counties Premier North.

Suma are now in 15th and this weekend face a Windsor side that are in eighth in the table with five wins, four draws and five defeats from their opening 14 league fixtures.
