Wilson on ahead of Collins

Are they drinking or fighting the water?!

Maybe Eccles long range tester was so long range that it still travelling towards goal!?

No. And he didn't get a good run playing in a 4. He was carrying an injury for much of the season end. Maybe they feel he is suiting the new system better at the moment.

He is one of best in the air and for a centre back isn't very tall. This would suggest he has a good spring. He was our stand out player beginning of last season, albeit in a back 3. He is decent on the ball.

Massive chance for Obikwu to show he can be in the reckoning, building on what he has done so far.

Is Simms injured?

If he could get back to his Norwich days form, definitely. When he played against us he was at another level. Robins was also singing his praises.

Impact injuries are unavoidable unfortunately. However, considering we are now supposedly using evidence-based approaches for injury prevention, it is concerning that Torp and Rapha's injuries have been put down to being foreign players, not used to training demands of the Championship. Surely...

The fact that Robins has paired Latibeudiere with Binks again and knowing that Kitching will be suspended for Stoke game, I wonder if he sees Latibeudiere ahead of Thomas at this stage?

So far in pre-season Obikwu has 3 goals and an assist. Should have had 2 assists if Sakamoto's goal v Getafe wasn't ruled out. Must be great for his confidence.

What begins with the letter 'B' and rhymes with Furroughs?

Maybe Stevenage will look to loan Obikwu if continues to play well.

Also, whether they plan to loan out or not, they will also be considering contract extensions or not. I think Obikwu just signed a year contract. Not sure about the other two.

Great opportunity again for Burroughs to show Robins he is ready or not to step up. I imagine, there is more pressure when it's your boyhood club.

Okay. Second half team is stronger than the first. Hope that's better 🤣

Stronger bench than starting line up.

I hope we keep Burroughs around the first team (not loan out). Think he has shown enough over the last 2 seasons to suggest he is capable of at least being an understudy to MVE. Being able to play in a number of positions is useful too.

We represented the Championship very well. They did not do the same for La Liga. Quality and attitudes were shocking.

Encouraging performance. Kept shape really well and everyone looked comfortable with their roles. Pressed well and starved them of any good opportunities. Didn't create too much in open play but looked dangerous from set pieces, thanks to Rudoni's delivery. Burroughs went past the fullback on...
