Lens away - Saturday

[DezFox]

That is horrible. We just don’t have a midfield. Daka will forever start 

[phoneticerror]

I get that Coops isn’t a fan of playing Cannon, neither was Enzo… But starting Mavididi and Ricardo on the bench? F**k off Stevie

[Quorndon_Fox]

Classic Daka. 19 passes… 1 shot 👌🏻

[adam]

Horrific side that is. Surely he isn't gonna go I'm to next week's game with a midfeld like that. Hamza ffs as well.

[Jobyfox]

We desperately need 1 or 2 midfielders or creative players before the window shuts. I hope Goodnight is just the start.

 

That team looks like something we should only be starting against Grimsby in the early rounds of the League Cup. Not for a Premier League campaign 

[Pliskin]

Starting to think Coopers not got a ****ing scooby…….

You’re support is ****ing shit!

[honeybradger]

Is this our last friendly? We're seriously wheeling out an Ndidi, Winks, Choudhury midfield? This is supposed to be us testing the starting lineup for next week and it's not looking good. With Ricardo on the bench as well I wouldn't expect Cooper to be here very long sadly. 

[Cropwellfox]

You’d think the new lad would play instead Hamza if we’d had enough about us to get it done quicker this week, but even then, Daka starting as CF is dreadful and the attacking depth on the bench is woeful. 

[coolhandfox]

Pretty obvious that we will be looking to replace the likes of Daka and Hamza in the line up before the start of the season.

That midfield trio and strike force of Daka is the stuff of dreams. 

 

No seriously, I wouldn't even be that confident with this team in the Championship. Grim. 

[ozvaldo]

There’s no way Cooper can seriously consider that midfield 3 as our strongest options. 
 

I cannot believe how far we’ve fallen by appointing this clown as manager. 

[Cropwellfox]

Wouldn’t mind a hammering today to try and shock Cooper out of this nonsensical set-up. 

[Dahnsouff]

Buonanotte will be here to get to the know the squad. Doubtful he would start.

[Sunbury Fox]

Surely we should be playing our strongest XI in the final friendly before the season. This is clearly not the best XI we could field.

It’s a worse side than last season. 
 

I said just said what we are all thinking.

The worry is that SC thinks it is! 

[Paninistickers]

Am I the only one open minded on this? 

 

Could be we as underdogs are gonna need Hamza's fitness and use Ricky as a 'finisher' ? Foothold in games etc and build from there? 

 

Ditto rotating Stephy and Abdul? So we get hard hard running all game? 

 

Daka he simply has no choice. So unworried by that. 

 

Biggest concerns for me are the centre half and VK. Both looked woeful in Germany.

Has this kicked off?

0-1 again incoming. State of that XI the week before the season starts - no goals in this set up at all  

Cooper's not a magician, these are the players he has to work with.

[AKCJ]

Is the squad really this bare by the way?

 

Only 18 outfield players?

Who are we replacing Daka with

[studentofthegame]

We are absolutely finishing bottom even without a points deduction
