    Everything is off though. I know it’s pre season yada yada. But the season is only 3 weeks off.

    They should be better.

    Less than 3 weeks and a lot of players look sluggish, lacking ideas and just basically don’t look at it.

    I appreciate it’s a pre season game but some players can’t control a ball.

    Elanga has been awful. You expect more from a 55m player.

    On comes park so soon.

    Let’s see if it was all a farce or whether he can actually play.

    So park so soon actually does look a decent talent.

    Ha ha. Probably not. But we can only hope.

    I think there are more questions than answers after today.

    And the opposition. Give them some credit. They can only beat what is in front of them.

    It's just a kick about
    Howe has played half teams in all the games so far
    with a healthy smattering of under 21's

    Looks like another bad injury for Willock.

    So we need another midfielder.

    I think Willock has done his Achilles.
