    I don’t know much. But if he is a step down from Bulka and petrovic it was obvious that was always going to be the case. Those two are top keepers and maybe they were the only two we stood a chance with

    He’s still going to be a major upgrade on what we have, and he’s at a good age to keep improving

    I'm hoping it's just a case of him taking a while to get up to speed, but Talbi has been poor in every game so far.

    I mean, pretty much everyone has been ****e in this game, but if Talbi doesn't get up to speed soon, we need another starting right winger.

    I actually disagree and think he looks good but adingra looks wasteful. I’d like another winger who can play both sides like talbi. Preferably left footed. Gives you options

    Talbi has fantastic defensive work

    I thought we needed one when he was announced anyway, but he's been better than adingra.

    We look so much better without Dan Neil in this team which is sad to say.

    Sadiki and Diarra seem to have a better understanding.

    I wonder if selling Neil might be better for the player and the team you know.

    IMO we should only play pre season games against sides who won't tackle or attack our goal to show how much work we still need before the first game of the season

    I get it’s pre season like but today has looked really bad like. Worried we have a premier league game in 3 weeks time. Hopefully we have a better showing against Hull

    Defence needs serious work. I’m happy enough with the midfield. Id like a winger and CF

    Not bothered about the result I’m more worried about the sloppy passing, the players getting caught out of position etc just seems very sloppy but that’s what pre season is for

    I think it’s 1W - 1D - 2L so far

    I'm just hoping it's now about fitness.

    First couple of games are working out where we're short.

    Next couple of games (this one included) building fitness.

    Last couple of games is drilling into the shape and final touches.

    Yes if we play like this in our last pre season game I’ll be worried
