We gather here tonight for a Woyo Coulibaly masterclass.

See him go up and down like a Woyo....

 

 

I'll get my coat

People getting carried away as usual. Next week will give us a better indication of the planned first team.

 

With the bench, he obviously wanted players to get 90 minutes in this game and the behind closed door games. 

Would've been nice to see certain players play in this one rather than the other, and vice versa but I guess there is probably reasons for the choices.

Are we 5 at the back or is Woyo in midfield?

next Saturdays game is a cup game not a preseason!

The league is the be all and end all for us this season. Next week’s game is the last one before the real action begins.

Yeah suppose so. Page ought to be nailed on starter but seemingly going to have to force his way in off the bench.

Injuries are going to happen and cream will always rise. I trust that Russel will pick the players that play his system best in the long run.

The reason is that this is the 11 he thinks are first choice. The alarm bells are ringing

Looking forward to watching g Josh Cullen run around

Out wide and bobby number 10?

[kingfox]

Looking forward to Russell alternating between BDCR and Cullen as “false 9s” for the whole season.

Why are they playing a friendly on the sly while selling tickets for this like it’s the only one?

Hamza is on his 7th Jagerbomb in a Nottingham club by now. He can't be doing matches at 19.30 on a Saturday.

I’d be more worried about it where Evans is considering his recent social media stuff, hopefully being loaned and not sold off

He’s on the bench?

I paid for this game a week ago on Foxes hub TV. I am pretty sure they pulled a flanker by putting the link up for the Genoa game when I was trying to pay for the Malaga game...

 

...ended up paying for both due to their fiendish website.

 

I am currently living in Hertford so was looking forward to watching local lad Carr - but this is a very disappointing line-up!

You paid to watch our friendlies but it’s this line up that’s the disappointing part?

That's no excuse I'm afraid, apologise

He did though?
 

Vieites; Aluko, Faes, Souttar, McFarlane; Choudhury, Page, Neale; Carr, Hutchinson, Opoku.

 

Aluko and Joseph is 50/50

 

Other than that probably Souttar (who is leaving) and Page?

 

They are the fringe / youth

Fair point, maybe not quite as bad as I first envisaged. I’m very hungover and I’d just stubbed my toe. 

[Aleksz]

Team I’m not bothered about from a football point of view if they’re playing two games, but a bit scummy they’ve been selling tickets on the sly for this without the fans not knowing they might not be seeing the strongest squad available no?

Then why not play the fringe players in the earlier fixture and go strong tonight? Players still getting the minutes. Seems a bizarre thing to do, to not try your strongest team in the final preseason game. 

Maybe this is what he considers his starting XI

 

Who realistically is going to start out of that XI from earlier 

 

Souttar? Leaving

Faes? Leaving

Aluko. Seems Joseph is preferred 

McFarlane? Just joined 

 

Maybe a case for Page but no one else.
