Let’s have a party!

Allasani nets a delightful goal

4-1

We may as well let Real buy Hazard now.

wow a midfielder scoring a goal....whats that all about?

 

[Otis]

Let’s have a party!

Allasani nets a delightful goal

4-1

Or even 1 nil up.

 

[Paxman II]

Ideally then with all back and fit what is the side Robin's hopes to field? (Given we have Chaplin or AN Other by then)

 

[luwalla]

Let’s not forget that they will be top end championship and they do look it, however we look poor, CB , CM

Same as derby though, and we never looked like getting hammered by them... or is there a big gulf between West From & Derby too? r maybe Derby just weren't committing like West Brom are ?

 

[Liquid Gold]

What has happened to the McDonald that was so immense at the start of last season?

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Don't WBA know it's a Cyrille love in that should end 4-4 with kisses all round?

Perhaps WBA have remembered!

 

[east_midlands_skyblue]

4 or 5 of these won't start next week so I'm not too concerned, friendlies don't mean anything anyway.

At this stage of preseason I'd hope we might have the core of the team starting together. Bit of a waste of time for fitness, they might as well have just chased a ball around Ryton.

What was it like

[Garryb80]

Very good finish. Edge of the box curled in the corner

 

[Otis]

Stuck a few virtual pounds on over 4.5 goals !

OTHERS: STERLING? ANDREU? BIAMOU?

What say you?

 

[sw88]

What was it like

Brown throw in to Allasani, takes a touch before dummying his way past his market, cuts into the box from a tight angle and finds the far post with a low effort

Shipley at right back?

 

[sw88]

Looks like we have a new coach. Either that or Andy Young’s eye sight is detiorating and he’s started wearing specs.....

 

[sw88]

Looks like wholesale changes

Burge, Davies, Mason, Bayliss all look they’re coming on Atleast

What say you?

I say why would you dispense with last season's RB and a young Prem RB with a player who played 90% of his matches last season on the left wing.

Is that Chaplin of Pompey? Are we signing him? Someone should start a thread.

 

[sw88]

And Tone (Andreu)

 

[chiefdave]

Is this Richard chap replacing Stuart Linnell or will he be back next week?

 

[sw88]

And Biamou

 

[chiefdave]

Apparently we've just brought Tom Baker on

 

[stevefloyd]

And Tone (Andreu)

Thats set the tone for the 2nd half...well that and Alasani going past a market

That was a mistake wrong name. But what's your team look like given our signings and players coming back to fitness?

 

[sw88]

Burge
Grimmer
Davies
McDonald (how is he still on?? Friendly or not!!)
Mason
Doyle
Maycock
Bayliss
Allasani
Andreu
Biamou

I’d say bar Maycock and McDonald that could be our preferred line up

 

[east_midlands_skyblue]

GK - Burger
LB - Brown
RB - Sterling
CB - Hyam
CB - Willis
CM - Kelly
CM - Agogo
LM - Allassani
RM - Bayliss
AM - Andreu
CF - Biamou
My team for Saturday based on what I've seen (or not seen in the case of Sterling, but Grimmer is looking out of sorts)

 

[chiefdave]

 

[sw88]

wba get a cross in the box, put a sitter wide

 

[IrishSkyBlue]

biamou overhead screamer start the come back id say lol

 

[sw88]

5-1

Cross box pass easily converted by Jake Livermore

What say you?

Shipley is a left footed midfielder, McDonald has gone awful, Davies is suspended, Ogogo is a defensive player and Chaplin doesn't even play for us. Apart from that you're spot on.

 

[sw88]

Sterling looking ready to come on

 

[lord_garrincha]

That was a mistake wrong name. But what's your team look like given our signings and players coming back to fitness?

Tough one if I'm being honest.

Do you remain loyal to players who played and scored at the business end, e.g. Bayliss, Shipley, Biamou. I say yes.

Was Sterling signed on the proviso that he starts regardless? And will he be a RB or RW or a RWB in a 352? Personally, I hope MR doesn't go 352, but that is his prerogative.

More questions than answers, but then I'm sure that's the case for everyone else in this league.

What was it like

One of those keys on the table affairs I think
Lots of Spandex about .

 

[sw88]

Andreu shot saved and put out for a corner
