Pre-season 25-26

[Kenny]

So today's training lesson is - Good players make you better.

Great to see Mosq back in action as well. Huge positive.

 

[YoungWolf]

I quite like our first eleven if we sign a decent right wing back. But we desperately need a centre midfielder and another forward too

 

[Kenny]

Full time. Another set of minutes in the legs of the players and the manager with a better idea on the squad.

Good stuff Jinks. I have subscribed to your postings.

He'll score goals in the PL. Nice acceleration, lovely balance and a bit of composure. We need a mature player like that in the team

 

[Celtiña]

I did wonder what you were on about in the first half.

Yea, i not view that guy Hoever the last seasson, and think he are P.Lima.

Same H. Bueno and S. Bueno, and seem H. Bueno worn on Vigo. Seem they returned of cesions.

Hoever look nice, but he fail a lot center actions, if improve that seem a good player. And H. Bueno play nice too.

I think Yerson walks into our 11 if he can prove his fitness and stay fit. Absolutely love how he plays on the edge. And that’s one position where we actually have a back up that can be relied on should he pick up a suspension (in Doc ).

State of that trophy and how have we been given one for losing?! Doc’s face says it all

 

[Lycan]

Lots of positives to take from that. Santi Bueno being utterly shite and some kid curling one into the top corner from 20 yards isn't enough to put a dampener on a decent pre season performance where we were in control for large periods against a very good side.

I liked what I saw from Arias. Hopefully we add another forward and Jhon can give us enough of what Vítor likes about Munetsi that we don't have to see him in that position much this season.

Of the players that have had significant minutes this pre season Hoever is a clear weakness, we need that RWB in before the season starts.

Whenever we don’t win friendly or not it’s going to draw criticism due to the squad issue but i don’t think tonight was that bad. Played well first half without creating too much but then quality dropped right after half time much like on Wednesday. Johnstone was appalling, punch was unnecessary just before the first goal and his attempt for the second was interesting.

Changes worked with particularly Mosquera and Arias looking good. Loads of work still to do but in terms of on the pitch don’t think we’ve learnt anything about the players and we’ve got to wait to see what Teti and Jeff do with incoming players.

Which of the two Pedro Lima's played better?

 

[Loki]

I would have liked a few more high crosses into the box seeing as we brought the big guy on.

Pedro Lima

No, disagree, it was Pedro Lima.

 

[Jinky]

Yerson also adds a threat from set pieces.

I hope we don’t settle for Doc as the CB cover across all three positions with Santi as the second back up. We need another LCB.

A quality RWB is absolutely imperative. And a back up goalkeeper to Sa.

Arias and Fer both like playing off the right, if I’m not mistaken? So we still need another attacking player who prefers coming in off the left and obviously a back up midfielder or two.

The reality is, we still have absolutely loads of work to do with the squad and they need to get a shift on.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

The one positive about our situation is it is pretty clear what we need to do to make a big improvement. There’s clearly money available so we can only hope they sort it out asap. RWB and a left sided 10 before the season starts please Fosun.

 

[prawnking]

We need another LCB

I think VP has indicated previously that he wants one too (obviously, whether he gets one is a different matter, but you'd presume that Teti is 'his man' so there's a decent chance?)
