[Sir Joe Aguero]

Why are we playing Atletico next? Never want our lads on the same pitch as them again. Perfect recipe for unnecessary injuries.

Grealish vs Savic, part 2.

Half and half hair bands for sale before the match.

Watching this Arsenal vs Barcelona and you see it CAN get quite violent in these friendly matches. Most notably Araujo vs Havertz. I hope it’s not the case for our match

 

[Goater=Legend]

Just hope theres no injuries after playing the thugs.

It'll be nice for some of our lads to renew old acquaintances.

I'd start the game with Palmer, Lewis, Phillips, Perrone, Bobb, Mcatee etc and leave them on for as long as possible. I guarantee an injury or two is happening in this game

Given how it went in the CL, I'm kind of surprised that the club agreed to this “friendly”.
I couldn't give a monkey's about the performance, or the result. My only concern is with coming out of this injury-free from these thugs. It would be incredibly stupid to be going into the new season with an important player out for a month because of these shenanigans.
