We’re treating this as a pre-season game and an opportunity to get lungs expanded and legs stretched. No point wetting the bed over performances, collective or individual.
 
Dinho having the shocker of shockers (not for the first time). But I'm supposed to believe his absence cost us the final.

Gundo really poor as well, bar that free kick. Shocking pass to Edozie when 2 on 2. Offering Mendy no cover whatsoever.

Ake has done well.
 
Edozie having a mare and Mendy is absolutely pitiful. He looks a stone overweight. I’m sure the occasion has just got to Edozie rather than anything else.
 
I think people need to remember this is pretty much the team Leicester will be using next week while half our team aren't even back in training and we have two kids on the pitch.

Mendy reverting to masquerading as a comedy defender again.
Midfield is non existent. Passing is shocking and movement off the ball poor.
At least it’s our reserves with a couple of the usual suspects.
 
Makes you think what the team against Spurs will be. I Only expect a few additions to this if I’m honest.

our pre season will take us till end of September at least :-(
 
Palmer has been ok but Edozie looks way out of his depth, which isn’t really surprising based on his EDS performances last season.
 
  • Considering the teams both sides have, we've done ok.
  • Steffen, Ake, Dias have all done very well in defence, for the most part
  • Mendy looks very good in possession. Looks like he's playing the Zinchenko role too
  • Palmer and Edozie have been a bit fazed, but have both had a couple good moments
  • Torres struggling to get involved
  • Fernandinho hasn't been at his best with the ball. Still good without it though.
