    I don't think that each individual friendly needs it's own post, so I'll lump them all in here.
    We commence on Saturday with a visit to Reading's horrifically named stadium.

    Saturday 19th July 3pm: Away vs Reading.
    Saturday 25th July 3pm: Away vs Luton.
    Thursday 31st July 12.30pm: In Hong Kong vs the filth.
    Sunday 3rd August 12pm: In Seoul vs the Geordies.
    Thursday 7th August 5.30pm: Away vs The Harry Kane Team.

    We also face PSG in Udine for the Super Cup, but I'll give that the usual treatment.

    Saturday 19th July 3pm
    Select Car Leasing Stadium, FFS​

    TV: Spursplay. Not televised in the UK.



    Haven't watched it, but they appear to have cut his short tribute to Diego Jota and Andre Silva.
    Very strange decision.

    Don't suppose you can shift the pre-season squad numbers over from Club Watch...?

    TF has said there will be two teams for this: the team for the first 45 will be captained by Cuti, the team for the second 45 captained by Sonny

    Robbie Savages son playing for Reading. That's one bloody good reason to remove the 'Friendly' title to the game! :emoticon-0183-swear

    Porro and Danso looking bright and very assured. Kinsky less so. And Johnson looks like he may still have some sobering up to do after the Europa League celebrations! <laugh>

    Welcome to my world of IPTV coverage with club based commentary teams, this Reading pair not the worst by any means, though the co-commentator could easily get annoying with his rather blinkered view.

    Vuskovic looks handy already, a goal an assist and in the right place at the other end

    Spence not covering himself in glory...helped set up the 2nd, but has since given the ball away in dangerous positions and has given away a stupid freekick, before sparring with a Reading forward ..<doh>

    Vuskovic on the other hand is looking a great prospect! :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Kudus has started well. Set up Vuskovic and has been putting in some really decent crosses & corners.

    Bergvall having a bit of a mare tbh - and I was really looking at the guy developing fast this season.

    Sonny doesn't seem that interested...

    Kudus however, is absolute quality!! <cheers>

    2-0 final score. Early days, but Vuskovic and Kudus were very impressive. <applause>

    Decent work out for 22 players, result not important really and a few pointers as to how Frank will set us up.

    Spence and Bergvall were both error-prone and made some very poor decisions between them.

    Most others gave a decent enough performance.

    But it's only Game 1 of another long season.
