All these Benfica technical fouls. Get a yellow card on one ffs.

Enjoyed that Lascelles challenge. Their CBs are kicking lumps out of ASM and Wilson.

Benfica leaving a pass on to Lascelles cos they know he won't do anything with the ball

Bruno needs to calm the fuck down. This is daft.

I wonder if this is Howe showing the board that we need to sign more players? Seems suicidal playing Longstaff and Anderson in a midfield 3 against Benfica.

What a save by POPE.

Half right.

What a freekick.

Yeah, it is major obvious. He can't have more than 1 or 2 years left in this squad - even as a back-up.

Your straw man is struggling with the tempo of this debate.

Wilson needs to do much better there. Even being offside. That was nearly brilliant by ASM.

You're not telling me that Lascelles is up to this level? Longstaff and Anderson (currently) as well? The point is that we are playing a CL quality team and some of our squad are lower Prem at best. There is no shame or ultra negativity in that.

That's amazing play by Almiron. Woof!

Yeah, I think that context doesn't need adding to every post though. Good sweeping by Pope.

Been anonymous.

I think 70% of the problem is the player quality. Some are never competing at this level.

ASM failing a very simple pass...

Bruno now getting utterly beasted.

This might end-up as a complete schooling cos our obviously below standard players are really starting to struggle.

Fucking Lascelles.

That's woeful goalkeeping.

Could you imagine this game under Bruce? We'd be camped on our 18 yard line and 2 goals down already.

Crap challenge and no need by Bruno. Pretty dumb to be on a yellow so early.

Wilson absolutely loves the battle here. Can tell he really wants to make a mark in this stadium, even with it only being a friendly.
