[Kompany is King]

Anyone know who are subs are?

 

[taconinja]

It's easy to slate the defenders because they aren't first choice but could any of our defenders play that high a line effectively?

No. Try telling people here that though...

 

[ACMilan]

Going forward we look great but the AC boards are probably going ape about their back four.

Ya and no. Not one of them is a starter - though constant does get a share.

Zaccardo didnt play once last year. Vergara has never played in europe and is 18, and antonini flat out sucks.

Gotta take it for what it is... Sucks, but thats what we got out there.

 

[Kompany is King]

dzeko's second was world class

fully agree

 

[Rösler von Stretfordbömber]

Eeesh. Javi Garcia. Didn't look too terrible filling in there once or twice last year, but clearly too slow and clumsy to do.... much of anything, then?

Cant believe we put 5 past AC milan 1st half..

As the commentator said, 14 years ago, we'd just struggled out of the 'third division'.

Who'd have thought?

Excellent 45 mins work out with us showing some excellent pace and understanding upfront.

Result matters not one jot and a few on here need to relax and accept games like this for what they are......friendlies!

I've even stopped calling them friendlies now, they're just pre-season training matches. It is simply souped up training in the form of a full match against another team. It's all about trying things out and mostly about conditioning.

Ray Winstone giving us the live betting odds "Final Score 7-5" lol

Replace Garcia with Kompany and this would still be 5-0

Where's Zab? On the bench? Bring him and Kompany on, shifting Micah to CB. And what about Clichy?

 

[BigOscar]

Replace Garcia with Kompany and this would still be 5-0

Not if Kolarov was still playing
