Gordo hasn't been at it so far. He reminds me of Barkley, for better or worse.

Aye, thought he was a left mid rather than a right sided CM though?

Is this also supposed to be a 4-3-3? not a huge fan of that given we’re not strong out wide.

Unknown 19 year old French left back having a stormer?!

Niels is a joy to watch. An under the radar signing looking very good.

Fair play they made the change and it started to work better and that is what preseason is all about. The website i mean. As for the game they seem to have gotten worse as it has gone on.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Left back spot potentially sorted for quite a while...

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Game means zip as not even close to our starting 11 but niels looks the business

Heavy touches all over the pitch.

What was the goal like?

 

[tommytowne]

Looks a good player our new left back.

Have I missed something?
What happened to our old one.

Sigurdsson showing why he's gone.

Not sure why DCL is playing into the yard dogs hands by wrestling with them. They've shown they cant deal with movement you don't need to battle them all game

 

[bigboy]

Seriously impressed with this young left back. Moments of sloppiness but everything points to a very good player, shame he isn’t a right back

 

[RomanReigns]

we seem to get countered very easily

2 or three times our keeper has been put in a 1 on 1 situation now

We played around with at the back, eventually made an arse of it before getting the ball back. Commentator says ‘good recovery’. There should never have been a need for a recovery ffs.....
