Pre-season 2023

From the line-up we appear to start with 4 CBs, a la Megson

If it was megson, we would have a couple of centre halves in midfield as well.

Suspected dislocated elbow. Ouch. That won't help those long throws which proved to be a rather critical attacking weapon in the arse end of last season. Very unlucky. Wonder if we will be looking for cover now.

When Yatesy scores, we're in the med.

Two up now.

Awoniyi sent off. What does that mean in terms of suspensions etc? How do you get sent off in a friendly!?

Violent conduct (swinging arm I heard, left Levante player with a bloody nose) in a friendly - if the ref includes it in a report, it would normally be a three-match ban.
But given it's abroad, that report reaching the English FA, who would implement the ban, is not a given.

Horvath! Powell! Boly!

No Johnson.

Still injured my son tells me.

Also, can’t pick Brentford players.

McKenna off with an injury before we even kick off, Freuler in

SSC really doesn't rate Panzo, eh?

Post reckon McKenna has been feeling ill all day, as opposed to injured.
