The young lad that replaced Haaland looks pretty useful. Cherki and Reijnders look top class

 

[Xhavenjoe]

I think Cherki and Reijnders have just played themselves into the team against Wolves. Same for Bobb those three were incredible

You would hope so

 

[elbearos]

What was the score please

 

[I'm Blue]

Good run out and no injuries.
Looking dangerous going forward.
Liking our press and movement.
Now if we can get our solid defending back we'll be cooking.
We've got some great attacking talent again.
Loving the new kit, it's mint!

 

[beatmiester]

Apart from the obvious. Trafford looks good.

 

[heslops barnet]

Decent work out and some good individual performances. Certain areas look comfortable with starters nailed on, but I’m still unconvinced by the left-wing and goalkeeping slots. Some good players but nobody standing out.

You’re hard to fukin please…..

I thought it was black?

We played quicker with Gundo and Bernie :)

Excellent 2nd half with a fantastic performance from Reijnders.

 

[Gabriel]

You’re hard to fukin please…..

Certainly am.

Defence is the issue that needs sorting. If we go with those who started the 2nd half we will have problems. Watched the Chelsea game last night. They have pace all over the pitch

 

[ninjamonkey]

Don't agree it was a good run out, enjoyable enough watch but the opposition were far too inferior for it to be competitive, they'll be a tougher game amongst themselves in training on Monday/Tuesday.

Didn't see much change from last season in formation/tactics and approach, which for me needs to change if we are to be successful this season.

For all the moaning about not getting rid of Bernardo and Gundo this summer, they seem like comfortably the best options we have in midfield going into the season opener in the absence of Rodri and Kovacic. Reijnders who had a good showing im classing more of a 10 right now.

Not confident we are ready to start the season, especially when we have a tough start but we'll have to be.

Bobb and savinho both had positive displays, hopefully those two will drive one another to improve with healthy competition for a spot on the wing.

Superb that and a thoroughly enjoyable Saturday evening spent watching this wonderful team.

Trafford

Lewis/Nunes
Kushanov
Stones
Ait-Nouri

Gonzalez
Reijnders
Cherki

Foden
Haaland
Bobb

That would be my team for Saturday if I was Mr Guardiola.

Attack attack attack attack attack!!!!!

 

[calumdown]

What was the score please

do you live on the moon?

 

[borassic]

huge season for Savinho. IMO he’s the better player than Doku and I think it’s between them this season for who wins and stays.

Tijani has to play as an 8

 

[nisan5504]

The young lad that replaced Haaland looks pretty useful.

I agree..what is his name?

 

[City Raider]

Think Cherki started centrally then moved more to the right where he ran the show. Just as the Lyon fan said when we signed him. His best is on the right. Will Pep trust him defensively tbough.

Divine Mukasa.

 

[jimharri]

Not much of a trophy, is it?

 

[I'm Blue]

Khaldoon looking like Tony Montana.
