Preseason 2024

[Paulie Gualtieri]

With the Euros and Copa now over, it's time to look ahead to when the seasons start again. Most players not participating in the tournaments have already returned to their clubs. Discuss anything related to preseason here.

I found this list of all the Premier League teams preseason fixtures here:

United kick off their pre-season today vs Rosenborg on Trondheim. United's official app no longer apparently shows the games for free so streams it is. Lot of youngsters. AWB, Casemiro, Hannibal, Mount and Rashford the only "senior" players in the traveling squad.

Then what happened?

Then what happened?

I didn't watch, I watched HOTD episode. I read the youngsters, mostly the ones from the crap U-21 team, were terrible and Rosenborg muscled them out and won the game with the last kick of the game.

How are we already doing pre-season threads... These players need more time off.

Did they really give up 20 shots again

Lolester United

I don't know but like I said, there were only Evans, AWB, Casemiro, Mount and Rashford who could be considered starters and they played like 45 minutes. Kids were apparently very poor and Rosenborg being in the middle of their season outmuscled them often.

The players playing in the tournaments usually get a three week vacation before joining their team. But yes, it's probably not enough.

 

[Chimaera]

Good to see United is up to the standard ETH expects.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Spurs are playing Hearts tonight. For some reason Skipp and Archie Gray are starting at CB.

Literally playing kids after a week's training camp.

We are seriously short on CB depth with Romero, Dragusin and Van de Ven out still...Need to buy some depth there asap.

Is Phillips injured?

Phillips is on the bench. Probably starts second half.

Davies is injured.

I think our depth is fine once they are back.

Jamie Donley is starting at left back too.

Of course (though there were a few regulars). i was more making a joke about him saying that it wasn't 'to his standard'.

That's the joke. It's been pretty shit across a lot of his reign.

I think Johnson can go from 15 to 25 goal contributions this year

Just scored from a nice team goal. Madders with the great run and pass after a give and go with Kulu

So refreshing to see a team that actually attacks

Emerson not helping his sale price

Spurs kids are showing up. Goals by Will Lankshear and Mikey Moore.

Bergvall to Moore. Hope to say that for a decade

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Spence scores. He's had an amazing game.

 

[HeHateMeFrisbee]

I've seen enough! We're winning the lot!

 

[spintheblackcircle]

I've seen enough! We're winning the lot!

That kind of hyperbole is not welcome around here.

......Mikey Moore is younger than Yamal! Southgate should have had him in Germany!

But please, stop the hyperbole.
