Smal

Murph has done so well in the Trippier role, like . Totally different player to when Bruce used to sling him in at right back.

Has carried the ball on transitions really well when he's had the chance. Done a pretty good job at replacing what ASM brought to the team in that regard.

Barnes hasn't gotten involved that much but he's been pretty great when he has.

Fantastic from Bruno. Barnes really should've scored...

haha, diving around like that in a friendly, man.

No need for Livramento when we have Murph

How's that a yellow for Longstaff ffs Joey's definitely getting sent off if this carries on

Lascelles used to be awful with the ball, but now he's all right.

was bobbly as owt yesterday as well tbh

This midfield 3 really are class together, like. Wilson's pressing really helps to set the tone too

3-4-3 today again by the looks of it edit: Maybe not? Fluid as fuck already

LCM / Willock role

Anderson is ready

AG is pretty much always late with his press afaict so far.

Really like how Anderson plays. Lad's got proper drive with everything he does.

you can tell Targett's barely played any football for a year

Let's go Livramental, let's go Livramental, nah nah nah nah

He's 21 in November. Needs to be in and about the first team now, and he's looked good enough to compete with Willock and Joelinton in pre-season so deserves a chance. If it's true that he came back fitter than anyone else then even more so. It's kind of a make-or-break season for him really imo.

It’s been like watching Newcastle when we’re ahead tbh

Enjoyed this Colombia performance a lot. Ramirez just been bullying Germany all game.

yeah, his first 45 minutes against Villa he gave away about 10 fouls and would’ve been sent off on a competitive game . Looked miles off. He will get back to it though.

Once he gets a bit stronger he’ll be PL-ready imo.

Gallagher is poor

their goal comes from the same issue we had vs Villa. Huge gap between midfield and defence to exploit.
