Pre-season friendly thread

[YoungWolf]

That was very poor. Worrying lack of identity. The back five is not ideal but you can still serve up a lot better than what we just witnessed.

at least we can’t be under any illusions that signings are badly needed

It was really poor. There was a lot of rhetoric on here about how the football was too dull and passive before but that they would take 10th if it meant more exciting football, that was a worrying indication neither of those two things will happen! I get it's been a fragmented pre-season, but my concern now is Bruno is trapped, can't do what Nuno was successful at but hasn't had the signings or opportunity to transition away from it. Like a lesser De Boer at Palace (as to Lage's credit he has tried and tinkered with different things)

That wasn't much cop. Don't think we even had a shot never mind one on target.

No-one has offered anything going forwards other than Traore but he's still too wide to have any real impact. Trincao disappointing other than a couple of pirouettes.

Not sure why he's playing Marcal at LWB as he's offered nothing going forward. Get RAN on. I'd rather see Donk at RCB than Kilman too.

Neto and Podence are sat in front of me, which has been more interesting than the game. Neto not bothering with a mask.

Dendonker on and Trincao off please . MGW as a 10 and go 3412

 

[Throbber3]

Moutinho and Neves as a two in this formation suck
Who would have thought it?

 

[The Bear]

Donk on for Joao

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Didn’t realise Trincao was on the pitch until midway through the half. No pattern of play, nothing to get excited about. If everyone is fit only Coady of the back five starts which isn’t helping. Hoping for a better in the second half.

We had the freekick rolled to Neves, that's the only one.

 

[Del Woppio]

Ooh, intent, and penalty!

 

[The Bear]

Jon Moss really is a prick.

 

[Del Woppio]

Is it? Oh, no it isn't!

 

[Throbber3]

Jonathan Moss is an abysmal excuse for a referee.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I can't explain any of that. What on earth is he doing?

 

[Freddeno]

Fucking great from Adama there..surely we must score

 

[Freddeno]

And no pen before that, what happened?

 

[Freddeno]

Saiss with a pretty nasty tackle there

 

[Throbber3]

Saiss having a stinker today.

 

[Del Woppio]

How much better is this?!

Also, 10/1 the wolves win atm...

 

[Freddeno]

Thats a very good attack, staring with hoever, then raul handles it beautifylly and lats it of to donck who shoots over

 

[Bertiewolf]

Clearly a bit of a bollocking at half time!! Go Bruno!!
