Pretty good half. Lazio had to get a bit dirty to drag themselves into the game - but our kamikaze keeper is a big worry. Alcaraz, Charles, Mara and SAA look particularly good. BBD looks dangerous too.
Whisper it.. but I thought Mara actually looked quite good that half. Most interested I’ve ever seen him
This is a good test against a right bunch of dirty bastards. Half of them would have been off by now in a PL game, as it is 3 yellows in the first half of a friendly is pretty funny.
Yeah, I've enjoyed it from the stands. Charly looks bright as well. If he's struggling to adapt to Russball then that's news to me based on that first half.
Hate the Barbie strip. Impressed by Saints first half, considering it is an experimental side. McCarthy’s distribution is a bit iffy but if there are no options, he is a bit stuck. Manning a bit wayward in his passing. Nobody has been poor, bonus!
In the playoffs he simply played long in those situations and it made us a lot more unpredictable. I hope when the season starts he reverts to that.
This Italian commentator is so good I could be listening on the radio and still have a pretty good idea of what is going on McCarteeee
Say it quietly, But Mara has been quality... the amount of Yellow cards Lazio should have had today from the bad fouls he's drawn.
