Dave Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 This seems utterly pointless. We start our season next week and he plays Ameobi and Jonas upfront for the first time ever. What crap use of a friendly. I don't mind trying new things but throwing people on in willy-nilly spots does seem like a waste. Shame Sammy and Ferguson are both injured (perennial little problems with a lot of our youth, vuckic included) as at least they could have had a proper run out and tried somehting new Ferguson played for the reserves today.

I'd misread that he was injured and left behind but obviously not. Cheers for that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Pretty embarrasing this, friendly or not it doesn't put anyone in good fettle for the Spurs game and gives the mackems something to cling onto aswell.

Revolution Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Worried about Cabaye. Such a key player with his ability to cover ground and get stuck in, I just hope the training ground "fitness work" can make up for the match practice he should have been having.

It's a bloody pre-season friendly. We got beat off Leeds this time last year. That affected us so badly that we only went unbeaten until November.

We should be putting the team out that is actually going to play. Aye, but failing that, it would have been good to have a few exciting youth players busting a gut to show they should be involved or add something different. Just a shame on that front. To be honest, I don't think there's a set formula to pre-season. Beating teams easily each time or losing badly each time is meaningless really as long as some physical fitness and match fitness are built up. We'll only be able to judge match fitness come next week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
