Youngsters you say?



What all 2 of them?

Surely you've not gone early this season making excuses up!

A bunch came on in 2nd half. Anyway of that starting XI only White and Odegaard are 1st XI starters. There's still 3 U18 players in that starting line up and more came on in the 2nd half.

No need for excuses as despite that we still beat a near full strength Rags anyway lol.

OK then.

OK then.

As an aside that Arsenal side had both Jesus and Heaven in the starting XI.

And Jorginho, Zincenko, Trossard.
Timber and Nelson aren't exactly youngsters gaining 1st team experience.
Add to the fact all the 1st teamers that came on in the second half and it's a very strong team.
Just saying.

Yeah, it was pre agreed that a penalty shoot out would take place regardless. Suspect that's for the American fans.

First trialed in the FA Cup semi vs Coventry

Its crazy mate, its frightening what they could do to the game to make a match last 5 hours or so

I reckon it won't need the yanks for that.

They will come out on motorbikes announced by retro Midi soundtracks.

Naturally didn't watch anything of their game but just checked the lineups, they've got a lot of their squad fully involved already, they're going to be significantly better equipped for the shield than us.

Add to that pep doesn't take it seriously

Looks like Tron or The Running Man.

And that's enough reason to not play friendlies or any games in that insane country.
Don't fuck about with our sport and we won't fuck about with rounders or rugby with shoulders pads and no rules

Bragging rights in August are essentially worthless unless they pertain to the previous May.

It’s not how you start; it’s how you finish.

There’s a muppet of a Swedish united fan on X, called ‘swedishRumble’ playing off the name of ‘SwissRamble’, who is a complete blinkered biased KFA pretending to be a ITK, with a smattering of financial … err… acumen.

He’s also a Private Eye fan, as he’s clearly into ‘log rolling’, albeit himself rather than a reciprocal with someone else

Perhaps he’s just copying his idol at sportingintel and has messed up which account he’s meant to be posting from in support of himself.

It’s headline news on Sky Sports that they’re going to build a new stadium near The Swamp with a capacity of 100,000.
