I can't actually remember ever having a friendly post season start, maybe I got that wrong? I presume it is to 'up' fitness and bed-in playing team that has a lot of new faces.

Hopefully see many everyone play including Gonedoggin, Mendy and some kids.

Decent enough team for a bit of a run around. Glad to see that the proper lads are on the bench.
Could be a shop window job for Mangala.
I heard rumours we were going to invest in Girona as a club like we have with NYC, Melbourne etc., could cause some difficulty if they win the Europa cup and we qualify for Champions league next year. You can't own 2 clubs in same competition.

We're a bit second to everything here.
Silva is a great little player.
Danilo looks solid.
Sane a bit off.
Foden should be in the full squad and Diaz.
They are ready.
Mongala was a terrible buy full stop.

Not going to plan so far. Why are we playing a game like this after the season's started? Is it because we're not playing again until Monday night?

Maffeo is the best player in this match, by far. Should have stayed with us this year.

Sane as LWB does not work, but to be fair everyone is pretty awful today...except Mangala!

Ref is awful.

Was just going to say that about Maffeo, why haven't we got him in the squad as cover for Walker?

that was pretty boring.

Anyway, Maffeo will be a star. That's my only take from this match.

No.. Not really.
I bet we put a bid in for sanchez soon..

I have to say mangala was alright...
But it was to get the fitness of the players up who. Have not played so job done.
