First game was a little pedestrian and they've chucked in Rio, Dunne & Hill this time. We shall see but that looks slow. I'd like to get a good look at Granero as he did look keen and moved the ball well last time out. - WTF he selected a back 4! so much for the 'New System'
Why do we always struggle to get good pre-season friendlies? They're not that bad this year but could be better. Brentford have a better set of friendlies, including one premier league side!!!!
I realize that this an experimental friendly, but we're looking horrible in defence and everywhere else. I realize the rain is coming down in buckets but same for both sides.
I'd have thought that it was the wind that is causing more trouble than the rain; we are having difficulty moving the ball forwards, they keep passing too long.
Early HT break - yes I think you're right about the additional wind influence. As Danny Murphy says - no football being played whatsoever in these conditions. Hopefully this storm passes over during the break and we can watch a better 2nd half with some positional changes.
