Dons boss Barry Robson was happy with plenty that he saw from his side in the friendly at Preston North End this afternoon.

“I was pleased with our speed and sharpness against a really good side. We missed a few things on the tactical side because we’re still a work in progress on that, but I was pleased with how we looked physically.

“It was brilliant to have Bojan Miovski back on the pitch after his injury, I thought Ester Sokler was really good as well, Duk still needs to get up to speed a little bit, but I thought we looked stronger and stronger as the game went on.

“When you look at middle to front today, I think we’re getting there, I think we’re exciting. We probably had four or five of the best chances in the game, unfortunately we didn’t take them, but we looked a lot sharper and quicker today, so we’re moving forward.”

The Dons are also moving forward in the transfer market, as the manager pointed out after the game.

“There’s work still to do with transfers, but we’re close to getting some things over the line. We know what’s coming this season, so we’re trying to double up on positions wherever we can, get some strength in depth. We’ll hopefully have some more news very soon.”
