Home run…Milan

 

[Crooked_rain]

I thought Philips could have let that drop onto his left foot and hit it first time rather than controlling it with his right

 

[Kamaro011]

This tour has ben a total waste of time for Pep and his coaching team from footballing point of view.

What a weird post, this tour is important and not just financial point of view.

Carson got a touch at least.

Do Milan realise this is just a friendly and nothing actually riding on this game ?

 

[Vester]

Positives:
Haaland scored
Bobb looks great
McAtee scored
Good assist from Hamilton
Lewis looks like a first teamer

Negatives:
Phillips
Our academy lads in defense doesnt exactly look like challenging for a place in the first team squad anytime soon

Suppose we should take it as a compliment that AC and Celtic have gone bollocks out to beat us in pre season friendlies.

 

[Mancity1980]

We wont be getting rid of him hes on 150k per week. No club is taking him even if we give him away.

I have just checked, he signed a SIX year contract until 2028! Poor business, especially when you consider all the good business we have done for last 10 years or so.

Friendlies years ago players stood of now there is 2/3 players up your arse playing it like there life depends on it

It will be nice if some of blues also treat this game just as that a friendly match.

Yet some on here treat it like freaking champions league final or something

 

[jollylescott]

The Italians can't help themselves. Even in a friendly they play for time.

It's been utter shite imho

We are a big scalp. Lot of kudos in beating City for their fans.
Even in a friendly.

Has it? Played the 1st team players available minutes and watched a load of kids and probably started making some judgements.

Win both games 5-0 and above still applies

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Losing is the new norm now we are in league 2-:)

Shame no one was running there. Good from JWE

I think Doyle has looked good in the second half

As a group, yes. But to be fair, throwing one of them in with established players probably would yield better results given the support around them.

Wilson-Esbrand has looked better in the final third compared to last week.

Red has been poor clearly had a brief of Webb
