Hate to say it but Kev looking twice the player Sandro is and that's not a compliment to him

 

[Ring master]

The Bury goal

Lookman will change this frown upside down

At least this should serve as consolation that we are, in fact, in need of better players this summer.

I repeat: how the actual hell are we losing to BURY?

Jesus Christ this is embarrassing. Btw who's the keeper? Is it Pickford?

 

[dannyboy]

Schneidercrab is just too ponderous. He sees most of the ball so he dictates tempo yet he just shifts it from side to side and ambles around.

Davies and all. If we swapped our centre mids for Bury's it wouldn't have made any difference.

 

[Ash Woods]

I think for all his faults if we are honest Mirrallas has lookd very good in this game, i think the weak link is Sandro tbh and it sucks because i really wanted him to come good, Dowell has flashes of brilliance but gets lost and gives the ball away... ala a young ratface barkley

 

[CrustySack]

Davies, Scheiderlin, Dowell and Sandro offer nothing. Surprise Surprise!!

Mate why the hell would it be Pickford when he was still in Russia at the weekend??

 

[ilikecheese]

I knew it was gonna be all downhill after that first match.

 

[ProZ]

I think Schneiderlin Baines and Mirallas have been fine to be fair, Dowell Sandro Davies and Coleman not so fine.

They should all be looking good. It's a League 2 side we're playing. Team is crying out for a new forward line unless Silva can work miracles in training.

Never replaced Pienaar...

On repeat

 

[ricer10]

We'll go with what we've got ..... Can't wait for that rally cry in 3 weeks !

Sandro did hit some really good corners.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

We should be coming out in the second half looking to absolutely tonk these.. otherwise what's the point? Losing pre-season games to lower league oppo just isn't productive to be honest.

Or Mikel Arteta.

Or Joleon Lescott.

Or Marouane Fellaini.

Or Romelu Lukaku.

Best we've had in years. Brightest point of the half.
