    This better not be our starting line up vs Newcastle. Yikes!

    Jeepers. Just looked at it.
    I really would have thought that tonight would have been about settling the team into the starting lineup and giving them 60 minutes tonight and maybe 90 minutes on Saturday.
    This is too experimental for me and risks going into the Newcastle game under prepared.

    Manning in midfield?
    That team is a shake down from RM for more money(if ever I saw one)

    I think Martin will have some starters for Newcastle in the team tonight and the others will start on Saturday.

    You would have thought starting them together would be more sensible.

    Can someone please post the team sheet?

    Actually I think most starters will be in the line up on Saturday. Which bodes well for Dibling.

    Jesus that is a shocker. Was about to lump on Lazio but their fans reaction to their line up is almost as bad as ours <laugh>

    I thought this was a prestige friendly, but the team selection says otherwise.

    Looking forward to seeing Edwards and BBD live for the first time. Will be keeping an eye on Charly as well.

    It isn't that much of a surprise really. If we went full strength today then we wouldn't be able to do so on Saturday. Fitness wise it is better to play a rotated side today then play the 11 that will start against Newcastle against Getafe.

    Thank goodness I didn’t waste my time going down tonight (350mile round trip) with that line up
    Feel a bit robbed having paid £5 for the official stream tbh

    It’s pre season, obviously they are going to give minutes to everyone to get fit
