Lovely run from Gervinho. Everything I've seen of him makes me think he's a real prospect.
But then as usual suspect defending costs us.

Unsurprising. I swear every time Squillaci comes on we collapse.

FFS, you complete and utter fucking idiots.
What is the fucking point of trying to score when you don't bother trying to stop conceding a goal?
Just beyond ridiculous now!

And that is why Vermaelen is not the second coming.

Gibbs simply not good enough to be first choice this season.

Yet again shocking defending. Very lucky not to concede again there. This is going to be the story of our season I'm afraid.
Defense has absolutely zero organisation.

This is it though, it is the last friendly.
We were promised things would be worked on and changed. Clearly they haven't been.

Benfica made 7 changes at HT.
Really having a go at us, and we are rocking.
Anyone know if the team Benfica have on now is near to their normal first team?
