so glad this ain't NBC sports with their insipid crowd noise piped over top of game.

Great start so far.

Is Barnes wearing cloggs today? 

[Brooksy]

****ing hell Barnes

[trabuch]

Left trigger Harvey

[UniFox21]

Need to be taking these opportunities 

[FLAN]

Barnes first touch poor so far 

[NewEnglandFox]

Can someone explain why we're trying to get the ball forward so much?

[coolhandfox]

Barnes looking rusty....

[That_Dude]

You must work on that first touch, son.

[Leicester_Loyal]

I think one of our main issues is that we don't play the ball forward quick enough. We always seem to take one or two more touches than needed, this allows the opposition to get back to to get someone on the ball.

 

Good start though.

[Sampson]

We could be 3-0 up already if Barnes could control a football.

[themightyfin]

Youri looks on it today.

[ALC Fox]

Barnes now three times lacking a good first touch. He was in such good form pre-lockdown as well.

 

I wonder if he's the kind of player who needs time to get settled in to a season, a bit like the prevailing opinion of Harry Kane?

[ozleicester]

good mugging by youri

[whoareyaaa]

Barnes does realise there isn't a 2m distance rule with the ball right 

[foxile5]

Barnes not looking good yet. 

[Vacamion]

 

We are pressing them really well.

Shame Harvey’s touch isn’t there yet this afternoon as he looks to have Emerson on toast! Got to score 5 before they sling Alonso on. 

[justfoxes]

If Ayoze only put it down the middle to Vards
