David Kelly 1117 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Taylor has been dreadful here like. Desperately need another centreback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I'm not particularly happy mbemba has come on at fullback. Surely we need to get him set in the centre as soon as possible. I'm hoping he's there as an experiment, to see what he's like at RB. Not the most positive sign a week before the season but he'll be playing CB when it does. Could have done with another friendly as we're running out of time for experimentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 6098 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Pretty pathetic pre season all round really. Desperate for another CB, someone who can put a cross in and Austin. Also need rid of Willo, Gouffran, Obertan, Marveaux, Rivière et al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 6098 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 De Jong, Aaron's, Mitrovic, Winjaldum all need to start next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I'd like to see gini a bit deeper with maybe SDJ ahead. Colback and Anita have both been as good as anyone in pre season but neither of them create much at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 3646 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Been maintaining all along we need to spend big on an experienced CB or its going to be another testing season. Still massive issues at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 27667 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I'm not particularly happy mbemba has come on at fullback. Surely we need to get him set in the centre as soon as possible. It's all part of the masterplan, don't have back ups for certain positions, play players out of position to make do, ideally players who are still acclimitising to this club/country, ruin said players as their confidence goes. Loan them abroad for a year and then sell at a loss. Cheaper to just target under strength positions and pay the going rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFaul 35 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I turned oot and in general I was pleased with the performance. Better finishing would've seen a fair scoreline. Taylor was incredibly shite, the defence is a major concern, Haidara abysmal, but the midfield was very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even out of position he absolutely oozed quality. He'll be at Chelsea in 3 years guaranteed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFaul 35 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I'm probably just going into town to get pissed with a load of Germans, me. There was only about 120 krauts. Ended up in the casino too. Too well behaved for me like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
