Pre-Season 24-25

KIWIORRRRRRRRRRRRR the goat

just watched the highlights, Nelson made himself look very fucking useful. I’d like to see more of him in pre-season before we decide to sell, 15m ain’t that much even if people think he’s trash (he’s not).

Hein looked a bit flappy on the highlights but made a great 1v1 save and the comms made it sound like he’d made a few good stops, so fair enough.

Good strike from Fabio, be nice if he can actually build on a good pre-season this year and contribute something meaningful.

Eh? Jesus’ pen was a rocket and the only bad Arsenal one was Trossard. Good strike even then but obv hit the post.

Timber was low key great in this game.

Versatile as fuck.

Didn’t even realise we “played” :joy:

Can’t believe Arsenal geo-blocked the highlights.

Not the only place to find them :eyes:

From what I heard, Timber had a monster game.

Feel like he’s got that LB spot on lock this season once he gets to 100% fitness.

We now have 3 top draw full backs.

Tomiyasu + Zinchenko are on their last legs here, think they’re both out next season.

played CB though didn’t he?

Wouldn’t say monster game. He made a a hospital pass to Partey at one point under little pressure which led to a big chance for Bournemouth.
I’d say he was decent. I don’t think anyone looked amazing to be honest.
Which is expected mind you, they have a week of preparation under them.
I think that’s the most impressive thing here.

do we have any news on the US tour?

Any player joining the existing team in US?

Yes.
Havertz, Martinelli and Gabriel joined the team today.

I presume once Calafiori goes through medical(should be today in London according to reports) then he’ll join them too.

Rice, Ramsdale, Saka, Raya and Saliba will join once the group comes back from the US tour.

I saw a picture of Lisandro in Man Utd training gear and was worried the prick would be out trying to injure our players lik last year.
Thankfully it was just him training on his own.

Put a youth player to do that on him, and reward him by a senior contract

We found one use for Rekik.:rofl:

Make him out for the game, $10k as bonus.
Out for whole pre-season, $30k
Out for 3 months, $50k
Out for whole season, long term contract

Lisandro will not be playing btw. He was just out training in Ibiza on his own.

Plus, I don’t think he needs someone to injure him. He’ll get injured on his own like he has been the past 18 months. I don’t think he’s managed to stay fit for longer 30-40 days in that period.

Need to have an enforcer there.
You injure our guy, I retire one of yours.

Message has to be clear and firm.

Remind me to never make an enemy out of you.

Do you have kids??
It is different.

I’m more tolerant if people piss me off…
But if someone mess up with my kids… They are screwed.

It is just different.
