David Edgar

I don't want to see Lascelles play another straight 40 yard chipped ball to nobody again.

Is 2-1

Missed the goal. What happened?

Looks like a different player. Revisionists incoming.

He's saying it reflecting on how he normally used to play. But then, if ASM played like this regularly, we would never have signed him.

You don't think he looks massively improved? Or what?

If Joelinton can get Fabinho levels of referee protection, he's gonna have a monster year. Probably won't and will get a yellow every minute of every game.

Will be amazing if ASM can deliver this kind of performance consistently. Like a new signing.

Took that brilliantly. Was convinced the shot was gonna roll wide.

That Lascelles hoof to nobody is all too familiar.

Lascelles making Dubravka work

This was Joelinton v Benfica but people were laughing about it.

Wonder if Lascelles and Dummett look fine here cos they aren't being pressed too quickly. Probably have that extra second to control and play it safe.

Good positioning by Dubravka. Even if he did leave those legs wide open for a nut meg. That was sloppy by Bruno to give that away.

Y'know who doesn't look out of place? Dummett.

The players are nibbling away at our friendship

Odd yellow card.

Ritchie's idea of team pressing is wastefully sprinting about on his own.

This is light years away from where we were at this stage of the season under the cabbage.

I don't think the people who rightly called out ASM's shite performances will call out many performances if he manages to play well consistently

Rash charge out there.

Wilson finally making his mark in preseason. Hell of a goal.

God, I hate Liam Gallagher's new music.

Wood's lack of movement when Anderson had the ball is damming. Useless.

Being played at an unusual tempo
