    Jesus Getafe are even more **** house than Lazio.

    Hard to read much into it so far. Fairly predictable. We really don’t create very many chances

    Bit of a mixed bag.
    It’s good to be against a team that presses hard, it’s making the players work harder to retain the ball.
    Passing is a bit hit and miss, in accuracy and pace and as I said recently, we will be getting a few red cards this season for double yellows, simply because our lack of pace makes the players pull one of theirs back, once they are goal side.
    Wouldn’t it be good to have a target man.

    Spot on. We're really missing those couple of players who can worry opponents. Need a quality player in the wide areas and a midfielder who really pushes on and scares opponents by threatening to play the final ball or threaten with a shot...

    Just a typical pre-season friendly and the oppo are making it hard for the game to flow, difficult to take too much from the game really.

    Ref needs to see this as a non friendly perhaps! Someone’s gonna get hurt!

    Getafe will really kick off if he comes on and starts nutmegging them.

    Going to struggle for goals this season. Really need to add a couple of attacking options before window closes.
