Nice line up, saving the big guns for the Community Shield. Love some Timber and ESR minutes.
Gabriel just got bodied
We are FLYING into some tackles
Ridiculous defending
Greedy by Trossard
Are we expecting someone to be in the box....? That's the second time I've seen a great cross go straight across with none of our players in sniffing distance.
He should have cut back, he had someone at the edge of box
Need a goal from open play here. I won't be satisfied by a set piece goal.
Coming On: Martin Ødegaard, Leandro Trossard, Kieran Tierney, Gabriel, Kai Havertz, Jorginho, Benny Blanco
Coming Off: Gabriel Martinelli, ESR, Jurrien Timber, Declan Rice, Thomas Partey, Takehiro Tomiyasu
These Spanish speaking commentators love Martinelli and Smith Rowe
As they should
Not a great ball from Havertz to Vieira ngl, bit too much spin on it, slowed things down
Havertz as False 9?
I think Trossard
Rice is wider and deeper than our usual left 8, if I'm not mistaken. Interesting.
Martinelli OOOF. Having a quality game until that moment. He's gotta make up for it now.
Tricksy tricksy
Is ESPN the one having issues lol
turns out yes, we have english!
Fabio needs to stop hitting defenders with the ball /lh
Rice as an 8 huh. Probably what we're gonna be doing Sunday, so makes sense.
Decent enough try for ESR there given how that ball was
Would've preferred to not lose a corner of course but eh
About to give up on English searching lol
Good save
Good ball steal (idk the fucking terminology for that tbh it was barely a tackle) from Vieira
Think the card on Saliba is fair tbh, especially given it's a friendly. Set the tone.
Always wonder how much it hurts for the players if the ball hits them in the wall, you've got the force of a pro player essentially all going into to you.
Felt like volleyball that
Martinelli looking up a bit more, not enough to grab a goal there though
