That midfield trio will catch teams out, but specially ones with less pace or older players. People might not see us coming early doors and we’ve got great early fixtures.
I’d like to see more of Roberts stepping central when he comes on, he was insane v Shields and was magnificent inside in the playoff final.
You can see he has a great “footballing brain”, sees passes other players don’t. The others probably don’t have that but possess the physicality to compliment him perfectly.
These new lads mind, you can tell they are a level above. I think Talbi’s best stuff will come from the left but still looked canny. That midfield 3 is full of energy and so fluid. Will be massive for PL football. Adingra is a proper livewire aswell, love his runs
Pre season but encouraged skill touch and aggression new lads look good Still look a bit lightweight and would love a target man but enjoying this. Oh and if we had paid 20m for Huggins would be happy
I think Talbi is clearly a winger that will thrive from the left. You can tell that’s what he wants to do but he’s a right footer
Class how there’s still Reinildo & Lauriente to see as well as these new lads, not to mention others who will join later. What a ****ing difference from a few years ago this team is. Absolute full credit to everyone involved at the recruitment level. This promotion to the prem is massive.
Impossible to tell after 45 minutes of a preseason friendly, most of the play was down the opposite side He worked hard and doubled up with Hume so that's a good start for me
