Then and there
Brentford are probably one of the worst teams in the PL, but Valencia did look quite bad against them. I know that the bottom teams in La Liga are nothing to write home about, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see Valencia amongst them fighting for survival after all their recent struggles.

Same team as Thursday. Could very well be the week one team, this is the next to last friendly. At least two of those three midfielders will start.

NLD is on right now. Spurs have had the best chance so far.

Nuno-ball hasn't convinced me yet. So little pressing. Also Son is poor as a lone striker.

Arsenal have been decent so far. Controlled the game and dominated possession but conceded counters against Pablo Mari too many times. Ben White looks surprisingly explosive, strong and good in 1v1 defensive duels.

Spurs win vs. these non-european minnows. They barely posed a threat.

Tanganga looked great at right-back. He should stay so I don't need to watch Doherty.

It was very fun to see Hojbjerg leaving Arteta absolutely rattled.

Andy Robertson just rolled his ankle. Doesn’t look great. Coming off now but was able to walk off.

T.A.
Liverpool front three were flying, but Athletic were really poor I thought. That said, as porous as they were defensively, they did have a few clear cut chances to score.

This is what Liverpool always look like without Fabinho and Henderson. It’s nice having the defenders back (and Virgil is still finding his legs) but without Fabinho and Henderson it can be open season at times. Still hoping that LFC goes back in for Bissouma but may be too late for that, and hopefully they don’t need a left back now too
