Rose bitched to the press about Benny, which was at best unprofessional - and he has proved absolutely f**k-all in the past 2 seasons since. Just watched him screw up again to let in Madrid, proving that he has appeared to have nothing in the meantime - cos he did the same on many occasions last term. £15m? Grab it and run.......
I don't think you should complain about your left back fouling up on the right of the goal area. I might want the right back to be involved a little or even the centre backs.
He's not, Spurf. Rose was close to Hamas (James) and totally lost him, which gave him an easy header.
Rose's marking. He's right about that being poor. I think that the defending of the cross was much worse, personally. Vorm didn't cover himself in glory, either.
OK but my point is where is the rest of our defence. It seems to me Rose was covering for a missing colleague not playing to his strengths. Having said that it's a friendly and no one should be going flat out anyway. I don't think we should be making too many judgements based on today's game but if we are not at the races on Saturday that will be a different matter.
I think that Wimmer was the centre-half that ended up marking nobody, but you can understand the lack of communication between them. He's new to the squad and he's quite young, though his English is certainly not an issue.
Just watched it on YouTube. Looks like completely lazy defending all round. Walker should never have allowed the cross to come in that easily, the CB's are nowhere, and James loses Rose too easily. It was a good cross, but he was given far too much time and space to put it in.
Good grief - have I wandered into some care home's message board here? Should I have brought someone a cup of tea and a biscuit with their afternoon pills?
Reports say that Modric and Bale failed to return to Los Ladrones' team hotel last night. Witnesses say that Levy was seen loading a couple of large crates into the back of a lorry headed to N17.
In years to come, investigators will discover that all of the chaos at Calais and Operation Stack were just ploys used by Levy to kidnap Modric and Bale and spirit them unnoticed across the channel.
And there was I thinking they were all the youngsters that Chelsea had been loaning out across Europe.
I'm afraid I've heard very little on ins or outs. Adebayor and soldado are both done supposedly but then they've been done for days according to some. Some itks saying werner will be at the united game and that berahino could be signed by saturday I don't really believe any of it now tbh - not after all of them saying berahino would be signed in 48 hours... a week ago
