Kelleher is boss

Alright I'm starting to like Carvalho again

this is the problem with preseason, you start to believe players you know aren’t up to it have a chance

in his case there’s a chance

 

[Modo]

I'm loving this formation

 

[binomial]

Can we fuck Ibou off now and get Sepp on

Wtf Ibou. Rusty as fuck...

 

[Markeh]

we’re looking suspiciously cohesive for preseason

harvey better start the season in this form

 

[StevieM]

Good goal - Big Ibou looking a bit rusty with his passing.

 

[Modo]

I'm not liking Jones in the no 6 role. He takes far too many risks.

 

[binomial]

Kostas looks good.

Jota anonymous

Utd really spent 50m on AWB, damn.

I'm not liking Jones in the no 6 role. He takes far too many risks.

Agreed, but Jones is coachable and has previously been able to make decisions quicker and better. Whenever he has been out a while, he goes back to his instinct of too many touches and trying to do too much.

 

[Markeh]

to be fair on wan bissaka he’s a decent defender, he’s just shite at everything else

 

[binomial]

What are you doing Jones, pass the fucking thing.

This is true.

 

[Markeh]

i slot is the man to get something out of these tricky young number ten types things will be good

 

[ibromurph]

Jones and Konate have been shite so far.

Jones in particular was excited about Slot ball, but yet he's been largely average in possession in all games.

 

[Modo]

What are you doing Jones, pass the fucking thing.

Told ya

Class Bradley, class. Book the cunt ref, this aint no mother fucking friendly.

 

[Modo]

Surprisingly Gravy has played quite well.

 

[Markeh]

mon bradders i have you down as the next stevie g, get up and two foot somebody

 

[binomial]

Utd on top the last 5mins. Front guys all anonymous.

 

[Markeh]

you can see lots of the third man runs going on

 

[binomial]

Fucking Jones man

Can we leave him behind in South Carolina?

 

[FreshRed]

Agreed, but Jones is coachable and has previously been able to make decisions quicker and better. Whenever he has been out a while, he goes back to his instinct of too many touches and trying to do too much.

I take it back. Jones does my head in.

 

[Modo]

Once a ballhog always a ballhog

 

[Markeh]

when do we coach him about players catching up to him from behind?

 

[binomial]

Good running Fabio, good persistence too.

Gillespie slating him but there was literally no one up in support, is he ok?

 

[binomial]

Kostas doing really well out there.
