Zalaegerszegi TE 19/07/25

[whoareyaaa]

He is never going to start a team that he will want to play at this stage he has only been here 5 minutes, he will need a couple of weeks at least to work things out.

[brookfox]

Pre-season so still more about fitness. But that looks like a very Enzo line up; Choudruy inverting from RB, Winks as the pivot, Skipp and BEK as 8s. Let’s see how it plays!

[st albans fox]

BIt of an over reaction to an early pre season starting line up …….

Why are we giving minutes to Coady when he’s going to **** off in a few days?

 

His fitness should not be our concern 

Making him captain too. Sets a dreadful example. Being practically begging to leave since January.

[EnderbyFox]

The amount of deadwood in this squad, absolutely bloated with overpaid rubbish 

 

Rudkin needs to get a bloody shift on and get these turds flushed asap

Skipp 🤢

Ignoring his fee, he had a very successful season in the Championship with Norwich. Given the PSR implications of moving him on, I’d expect him to be a key player for us this season.

[Brainy]

Haven't seen that line up I hope we get battered

[Cropwellfox]

At least he’ll see very quickly why a new midfield and a striker are absolutely necessary. 

[Tommy G]

Nelson injured what a shock, he’s made of glass - and the thin stuff at that

Think itll be 4231, BEK as 10 - if he's playing Skipp as an attacking 8 then he might as well sack himself.

Enzo system had 2 x 8's, one offensive KDH, one defensive Ndidi, could be the role for Bilal and Skipp

I’d expect Hamza to be inverting to make the double pivot slot inside Winks, so Skipp will pushed forward more. Sort of a 3-2-2-3 formation with Skipp providing a high press. All guesswork really!

There are people in here that have a PhD in overreaction. They’re identifiable by the words “I’m done” or “state of this club” … usually as a result of the manager having the temerity not to pick one of  their preferred players.

[moore_94]

Always love when peope go OTT with reactions to line ups in friendlies against what are effectively "fodder" teams

[AKCJ]

Fatawu on the bench 

[Corky]

Such a dull line-up. We desperately need Ricardo, Fatawu, Mavididi fit and firing. 

[Foxes1]

Good to see Daka starting let's see what he can do.

By the way…

 

How does this game work? We’ve got a bench of ~15, surely not all of them can get on. Are we changing at half time? Is it roll on roll off? Is it 2 45min halves?

Half of em need rolling off the nearest cliff at half time

Yeah don't know if you got the news lad but Enzo went Chelsea, our manager is Martì Cifuentes.
