Pre Season Thread

[Legohamster]

So one proper match before the season starts? Interesting prep. You open yourself up for criticism with stuff like that.

Always difficult on the back of a World Cup.

Think the club has done well managing minutes/injuries with a bit part squad

Everyone is in the same boat

Be interesting to see if Solomon is in 2nd game.

We playing west ham

Who's idea is it to have the teams in shirt number order rather than keeper, defence, midfield, attack order.
I do not like that...

Berg seems careless with the ball

I want them to list it alphabetically according to their height.

 

[Yiddo]

Do we know if thats Getafes “first team” we are playing?

 

[Legohamster]

Tonali is class

 

[Zavod 311]

sounds familiar

Rob Daly said on commentary they played Monaco on Thursday and have made wholesale changes for this, no clue which team is their strongest or if both were a senior/youth mix

 

[Legohamster]

It's all very promising till it gets to the forwards.

 

[Chrissivad]

Grey is having another good game. Just wish we could see him at cm more

From what I've seen in preseason, Moore looks miles off the first team

 

[Yiddo]

Richie is fudging shocking.

It's been said before, but he is miles off being a PL footballer currently.

Of course he's young and can/will improve, but those banging on last season (and even the season before) about why didn't we just play Moore and what not - there's a reason why, he's nowhere near good enough yet, if he ever will be....

Richie seems to be one of our better defenders of set pieces.
That seems to be his primary purpose, as it sure as hell isn't link up play or striking.

 

[Legohamster]

Richie is fudging shocking.

There is zero movement from the front players, the midfielders are stalling because no one is making runs/dropping to make space.

It's so easy to defend.

 

[Bullet]

These La Liga players just throw themselves to the floor or foul us or dive or foul us or scream or fall down or foul or punch.

You can see where Gallagher got it from, he also screams and collapses when touched.

 

[Legohamster]

That's good by Moore.

In the PL that goes to VAR and a pen

 

[Bullet]

Stroke of half time, Davies gets a free header but expertly picks out the keeper's face

I don't think he is looking out of place here. Was hoping to see more from him. But this is a back up attack.

Another loan would be good for him.

Should be 1 up
