    Twitter/Facebook is mainly kids finding a new freedom, it’s 80% knee-jerk loud mouths with short sighted and immature judgement. That’s why I don’t even enter the conversation on those platforms and enjoy these forums. Every club has them, all the silly tribal stuff such as the Leeds and recent Arsenal sniping is stoked up by these boneheads, it’s embarrassing to read.

    He is 28, don’t know much about him but if he starts at PSG he has to be pretty handy. Does the profile fit what we are looking for or just someone being touted around the buying clubs as they want rid?

    Why the sport on these, all the calling out drama, just wait and see? If we sign some Monday/Tuesday (or even Wed/Thur)is he legit? I am sure there will be plenty saying “its transfer window, there was a 50% chance were going to sign someone, I call BS”.

    As good as Buendia might be, he isnt anywhere near as good or influential as Jack. I think Jack is on a knife edge as to what happens and we could be set back by a couple of years if he does leave.

    I think thats why we bought Sanson. Even Chuck will make a claim this season, but Smith seems prepared to give McGinn plenty of slack, I guess he's earned it during his time here, although there is no room for sentiment.

    The clubs ambition (if it is to retain the best players) must be Europe this season. As we have only replaced Barkley I think there remains a lot to do as Arsenal, WHU, Spurs, Leeds, Leicester, Everton all finished above us and will improve and strengthen, and Brighton wont have the bad luck they suffered ast season also. We have a big task ahead of us - we need a strong start and can't go missing mid season like we have done for the last three seasons.

    Turned up a week early apparently. Good man.

    I agree, but I was suggesting why some views might be as they were. vs Walsall however there were periods of slick interplay and clever running, the goals were also well worked. Thats wasnt present today, even accepting the better opposition. I am not sure they learned much today other than maybe what or who doesnt work. We do need a general improovement in quality, and I know we are missing a few very good players. Unlike Walsall I did think that Freddie tried to impress, and probably did..

    Hahah, here we go.... I do agree however that there are a few on this forum who think we have a top 6 finish in the bag already. We are way off that at present, all we've done is replace Berkley so far, we need another two first team starters and Jack to stay. We also need Championship McGinn to turn up, Luiz to find some form, Sanson to deliver, and hope we have no injuries.

    Did you watch it? It might be because it cost us £5

    I disagree, how can 45 minutes of a friendly be all about fitness? We should be taking much much more from friendlies, we can do fitness in training

    Powell appears to stand on his foot and lean into him as a bit of afters to the challenge before. No excuse though

    Could have been a cracker that

    Carney could comfortably be in the first team squad this season, he looks so comfortable and mature

    Well we’ve learned very little today, other than perhaps we have a lot of work ahead of us. We are defending poorly as a team, and ball retention is also poor, I did expect that to be much better than it is.

    It was like a drunk Saturday night over reaction with aggressive headbutting and throttling action. Always a red

    I think Wes wants out, his body language last oiting was terrible too

    Targett just doesn’t look like an elite athlete

    It’s hardly our first team, or even half our first team

    Not much is working

    Woodward is Terrible

    Wow, just brilliant. You captured it perfectly for us fans. Let’s hope Jack wants to be Villa’s Totti, and I believe his provenance and appreciation of the wider game suggests he does. Soulless trophies and mercenary money is one thing, but Legendary status and true accomplishment is a rare commodity and wealth that only a few attain.
