    Sadiki continuing with the sloppy passes. It’s just a bad day at the office.

    Been a bit of a reality check today hasn’t it, level was so high in Portugal I’m surprised we’ve looked so poor

    Do we have a timetable on Rigg playing? Don't want him playing catchup when the season starts

    And just because I’m being a bit of a dick, that was exactly the sort of ‘slowing the game down’ that DN has been getting pelters for all afternoon:emoticon-0105-wink:

    The commentary just mentioned it so i presumed it was recently.
    Either way this performance is not acceptable is it? Hopefully this is the wake up call we need going into next season. Shamenwe dont have a LB available because Cirkin probably has an ingrown hair or something

    Bit unfair on Cirkin mate, he’s worked hard for our side when fit to be labled soft

    Guess it depends on how intense the training has been this week. If they’ve been pushing loads of sessions they may just be a bit gassed. They’ve certainly played like that.

    He’s pelted cirkin all pre season, despite the fact cirkin played through the second half of the season after a bad surgery that he’s now had to have fixed

    Its not harsh at all. Yes hes been integral when fit but ill let you do the maths from how much he's contributing vs his unavailability.
    His recovery time is shocking, he reminds me of what Sturridge was like at Liverpool when Klopp called him out for not being mentally strong enough to play through pain.

    Cirkin currently has a bad wrist ffs

    Just write it off. It’s just a day where they’re at a much higher intensity. No conclusions to be drawn imo
