Dowman the new right winger! we need.

Every time the ball goes to him he drives forward and there is every chance he'll do something Different Class. :barscarf:

There goes eze if trossard injured as we won't be able to sell him. what utter madness playing these wankers in preseason. The result is meaningless but give them encouragement and makes many of us wet ourselves as we lose.

Not playing him in a NLD.

Friendly or not that is damning.

Very poor and disappointing performance. We never looked like we were gonna score.

I think we've all said it at some point...or at least thought it......the problem is the idiot in the dugout and he shouldnt have been given a penny more to spaff on players to join ohdeargod and co.......all those new signings mean nothing as the real problems of last season will remain, all be it with some new faces to shoulder some of the blame.

I can not see trophies from a team when the likes of ohdeargod, haverts and ben white are first choice 11!

Tbf teecee, it is well established that most of our attacks go down our right side - pele himself could be on the left, but if the ball is constantly going down the other wing, what difference would it make ?

The bigger issue again for me is our captain and our striker - around the 70th min mark white made a great overlapping run down the right wing but again that dithering c.unt didnt release the ball to him and this is an issue that needs correcting NOW. If he cant release the ball fast in a slower tempo friendly when there is less pressure, then what hope is there of him releasing the ball fast in a high tempo premier league game when opponents are all over you like a rash ? Our attacks are predictable to the nth degree and that is largely because we have a central attacking midfielder who spends most of his time on the right wing maybe hoping to benefit from the extra attention that saka is getting, but in the meantime our attacks have little or no balance - we could buy eze or rodrygo or have peak pires or peak ladyboy ronaldo on our left wing and it wont matter as long as the norwegian fanny is hiding on the right wing, and taking forever to release the ball
