The pre-season thread - 2024/25

He’s a ****ing disgrace tbh.

Unbelievable waste of money.

 

You're welcome.

 

I may be wrong but looking at the pre season line ups there doesn’t seem to be any indication of a switch to a back 3?

 

If we're serious about an academy pathway (and I'm very doubtful on that right now), we simply have to include Dibling & SAA in the 1st team squads regularly this season. None of this going out on loan bollocks, none of this preferring Sulemana or the like.

 

Hundred percent agree. I’m actually starting to get wound up by hearing many people say “they are young and have a lot to learn “ Sam Amo was brilliant from his first appearance in the first team against Liverpool in the relegation season. They are simply miles better than the likes of Sulemana, Mara and Edozie. They must stay and play!

 

I thought this too.

 

We've played weaker opposition so far. Maybe against Lazio and Getafe we might go with 3.

 

I think now Bednarek is back we will start seeing a back 3 soon.

 

My bad, turns out I can't read!

 

What about TD?

 

Alfie said he didn't know for certain but that Tyler had voiced a preference for staying around the group, at least until January

 

I see our allocation for the Oxford game has sold out, but can’t see anything on the official site about streaming the game.
Anyone know if it will be streamed?

 

I am assuming it will get streamed, but that they've agreed with Oxford not to publicise it too far in advance, in case it impacts ticket sales

 

I’ve never noticed before but does Charly have vitiligo? Looks like it in that picture

 

It's not unusual, lots of people have a fear of heights.

 

Either that or the toothbrush slipped.

 

Hoping we'll see a team that looks like it might be a starting XI for Toon at some point tonight and that Mara and Sulemana are off of penalty duty if they play.
