Yeah Giovinco's a quality player, no doubt he'll be a danger. Technically we've named a strong side but having endured last season I know full well it ain't that strong. Going to look so much better against Doncaster (my hometown, unfortunately for me) when the new signings are starting. I think I'd prefer Matthews to Jones from what I've seen of him but Jones is alright. I think Matthews is probably his equal in defence but seems to be more at home going forward.
what a save Pants! Toronto took their first team players off after half an hour. Their second team is still all over us.
I know it's pre-season and the new lads ain't there, but it'sworrying how little cohesion and ball retention we have. Look shockingly bad.
The worrying thing is they actually look like they're trying as well... Complete lack of quality based on this evidence.
We came into it a bit more, very direct and through the middle. Don't seem to be using much width. Toronto missed an open goal just on half time, they probably should be just edging this. I've only watched about 15 - 20 minutes though. We will win this match and Watmore will score
It's been a farce this trip. Half the squad missed the first half of the tour through visa issues. Our new signings were unable to get there on time to take any active part and the performances on the pitch have been woeful !
Dick better get O Shea and Larsson of in the 2nd half. This team is looking very bad at the moment, that is a Toronto reserve team now. They cannot put 2 passes together outside the pen area just panick and shoot, Defoe and Fletcher should have scored. Charlie Austin and Borini needed now.
But we know already it is a line up who can't play football . We've got windows of evolution ahead, this team really brings home how much work is needed.
We really do need a lot in midfield. Lens is a start but Pecker has historically used him as a striker so for me we need at least 2 more. A CAM with some ****ing composure and a winger. If we can get Januzaj on loan we should bite their hands off.
Hats off to you lads for staying up to watch this ****.......which is even worse than the commentary. Those reading your comments in the morning will think you've been harsh but I'd say you've been restrained.
Was saying similar today on twitter fella, a left back too if possible. Don't fancy three fullbacks with jones being one of them. Injury prone and scared ****less of a forward pass, even when it's on, always back to O'shea.
