Paullow Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Assuming Howe does the same as last year in the b2b friendlies with the strongest back 5 one match and the strongest front 6 the other (or at least what he intends to play vs Villa) and with Schaar a doubt, but not ruled out, so an extra day won't hurt - do you reckon we might see something like the below over the next 2 days: Fiorentina Saturday: --------------------------------Dubs--------------------------------------- Manq---------------Dummett------------Lascelles---------------Targett ---------------------Bruno--------------Joelinton------------------------- ------------------------------Anderson------------------------------------ Almiron---------------------------------------------------------------Barnes ---------------------------------Isak------------------------------------------ Villarreal Sunday: --------------------------------Pope---------------------------------------- Tripps---------------Schaar---------------Botman--------------------Burn ---------------------Tonali-------------Longstaff---------------------------- -------------------------------L Miley---------------------------------------- J Murphy------------------------------------------------------------Gordon -------------------------------Wilson----------------------------------------- Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Edgar Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 The club seems pretty desperate to shift more tickets for the weekend. They've got "See Barnes and Tonali..." as the banner story on the latest news page but it is just a link to the ticket page. Feels a tad unscrupulous.

Coffee_Johnny Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Bruno, Tonali and Joelinton must have a couple of halves together in these next two games. They must be starters and need some real game time to work stuff out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 It looks like that's the plan for one of the games, based on the training video from a couple of days back. Longstaff, Miley, and Anderson the other trio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Just had a look at tickets for today. Unless I’m missing something it looks close to a sell out in the lower bowl. Level 7 closed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the fact even though we've got £150m worth of CMs, that we've still got an Academy grown midfield three that would probably still hold its own in this league.

Is there a reason for this? Are they still installing safe standing upper leazes or did they know there wouldn't be full demand to open level 7? Surely reduce ticket prices by a fiver and you fill the stadium? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
