Pre-season friendly thread

[Kenny]

I think we will see the first team get 45 today and 45 tomorrow. Kids playing the rest.
Might see Sa/Ruddy play a full game each.
Might see Raul play a bit longer in one game and left out the other.

Today will be a really tough one - it always is when it's a championship side's last game of the pre season.

I wonder if it will be first team today, U-23s tomorrow, or a mix and match affair

Plus it's flipping stoke, we never beat Stoke

I've always despised Stoke. Their fans aren't particularly bad, it's probably just my perception of their (legacy) style of football

Anyone going on the train:-

@Wolves please be aware that due to an incident there will be no trains in or out of Stoke-on-trent for at least 2 hours. No further details at this time.

Trains are fucked, apparently.

3-4-3 unless one of Saiss/Coady is in midfield, ha

 

[jlo]

Well it certainly isn't 4-4-2!

Is it that unlikely? Marcal over RAN at LWB is an odd choice for 343

........Sa

Semedo....Mosq....Coady.....Saiss

Trin.......Neves......Mout........Marcal

.............Traore......Raul

Well we have 2 LB's and 2 games in 2 days, so at some point Marcal is going to play. If the thinking is now towards the 3 at the back, then he has to play there right now. As a standard LB under Lage he has been higher up the pitch anyway, so not much of a change for him.

Sa
Semedo mosq Coady / Saiss Marcal
Neves Saiss / Coady
Trincao Moutinho traore
Raul

If he plays that shape then I might be slightly worried tbh!

 

[Dire Wolf]

Hopefully there’s some good updates on here about the game since my usual source for watching doesn’t appear to be streaming it today.

 

[Wolfmania]

Anyone having issues with the Wolves player?

 

[Dire Wolf]

I was wrong, normal service has it just with no commentary.

 

[Throbber3]

Big Chris Iwelumo does talk a hell of a lot .

 

[Deano]

Honking defending

 

[slink]

Not great defending but Fletcher looked a yard offside infront of Sa.
Back in it straight away, the front 3 and Semedo look a threat.
