Didn't learn anything. We need a winger to help Lukaku shine and a midfielder to help Pogba shine. Mourinho knows that. This is fitness.
By GQman2121 Go To PostI mentioned that Mane was the bargain of last summer, but I think Bailly would also qualify for that list too. A top six club in England couldn't buy a defender his age and quality for less than £50m today.Kante?
Jones passing back to the keeper there instead of pushing it forward in a meaningless friendly is why he should be fucking sold
By Ciaran Go To Postyeah definitelyKeita is much more a finished (if still largely unfinished) product, no doubt. Still, with the signings of Douglas Costa and Bernardeschi, I'd say we could use a backup striker for Higuain more than we could use a 'punta mobile' like Keita. Then again, Schick's been playing all over as well. So, yeah, I don't know. I'd be happy with either, but have a slight preference towards Guarischick.
I mean between the two and if I'm being honest I'd go for Keita. He's one year older yet has 130 games under his belt for Lazio. Can play anywhere upfront too which is nice

Just look at how much trouble City have had. Fuck, we paid that much for Shaw.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostUSA vs. Jamaica in 10 minutes or so. Final of the CONCACAF Gold Cup.Wait, we lost to Jamaica? Fucking hell.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostThat was a sweet run. Who was that?Juanzebe.
By inky Go To PostWait, we lost to Jamaica? Fucking hell.https://www.clippituser.tv/c/edlbbg
In fairness, you were playing your C team.
Rashford was the standout. Pogba looked calm but too deep. Tuanzebe and AP15 looked good when they came on. Martial didn't get on the ball enough sadly and fluffed his chance in the final seconds.
Blind had a shocker.

By Bold 2 in One Go To PostStop aiming at the keeper ffs.Aye shooting was a big let down, but its pre-season
on that note, Romero is probably the best No2 in the world
By Perfect Blue Go To PostGood goal.
In fairness, you were playing your C team.
Yeah, and knowing our coach, everyone was playing out of position and together for the first time, considering he never repeats lineups. Can't say I care too much either way.
By inky Go To PostWait, we lost to Jamaica? Fucking hell.Inky please, it was expected.
So what improvements do we see from last year? Forward line looks more mobile, defence has a bit more cover and Lukaku offers us something more. Sadly though you cant say we look that much better, on paper or in practice, the last two signings are a must and then well have much more shape in the team, right now too many round pegs in square holes trying to fix it all together.
I think it's about finding the right formation and position for the players. I like what we have, although yeah, we could really use a DM and LW.

one-touch movement in the opposition box only clicks once in a blue moon, need better crossers (how can we have a team of giants but can't find a cross in a Catholic cemetery?)
Overall, we move better, look more confident on the ball - no Rooney slowing down the play to do his diagonals.
Need a proper DM - Proper winger - and maybe a cheap striker from the Dutch league or something.
Jose saying its good we lost, important not to go in having won vs all these good teams
Did some good things and some very bad things
Says no injuries

Clearly a conspiracy so that the game doesn't end in a draw and Slizz doesn't get his money back. Classic Rube.
By Grizzled Cola Go To PostDo think there is a real possibliity Linelof doesnt start the seasonThink it'll be Jones/Bailly that start.
It's like a state law that if enough people turn up to a sporting event in Florida that one of Pitbull or Florida has to perform during any intermission.
By Grizzled Cola Go To PostDo think there is a real possibliity Linelof doesnt start the seasonyeah. I like him, but he needs more work done on his positioning and integration.
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostPSG dancers twerking. Wew.The guitarist isnt actually playing anything
By Grizzled Cola Go To PostThe guitarist isnt actually playing anythingsome quality butts tho.
By Koko Go To PostI miss Di Maria.Ehh he had his off days more than on days.
I feel like Theo, our new LB, has a bit of Di Maria and Kungtrow in him.
By Frustrated_me Go To PostEhh he had his off days more than on days.Sure, but he still fun to watch.
