I mean, that's an amazing statement, any way you slice it. Makes you realise what a world-class manager with backing and a great all-for-one team spirit can do.

thunderball Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Chambers looked an equal tonight, very accomplished and secure. Olsen too, hopefully his confidence builds, but on that showing, with a solid system and pattern of play in front of him you wouldn’t have a concern in the domestic cups if it was necessary. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a weird feeling to approach a season totally unafraid and looking forward to it, but I really am. That is some achievement and it is testament to one man. Already our best manager since Ron and very capable of over taking him. God bless you Ron, I am sure you are enjoying the steps being taken. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robby b Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Well that's alright isn't it? Winning 3-0 vs the Serie A team that finished 2nd last season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero7 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Motm goes to Tielemans, he looks so composed and seems to have time on the ball and is very economical with it. Though Chambers, Lil Phil, Luiz and Karama were all excellent too. Beundia looked off it. Also JPB didn’t look that exciting today and Archer looked like a championship player. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marka Ragnos Posted August 3, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 3, 2023 (edited) Did we just shut down last year's second place club in Italian football? Yes we did. Edited August 3, 2023 by Marka Ragnos 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
est1874 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I still don't want Olsen anywhere near the first team, sorry. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colhint Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Thought Coutinho looked better. Maybe not so much in the prem but I think he could open a lot of defences in Europe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve not been this excited since the MON days but we had a great first 11 then but not a great squad, now we are building both 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was trying too hard to curl a worldie into the top right corner. But yeah, can see him starting some Euro games and used as a sub in Prem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want him to impress so he is kept on. But i have a feeling emery will think he isnt ready. Shame he hasn't really grabbed his chance in the same way Philogene has, but also should remember Archer isn't the type of player who's going to be involved all over the pitch, he's not an all action forward like Watkins, he's a fox in the box type and that means he's going to go through spells of not contributing before he pops up with or goal or an assist from inside the penalty area Edited August 3, 2023 by david-avfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa87 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Was that Lazio’s strongest team? Some statement even if only pre season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're a striker away from surprising a lot of neutrals this season. Can't remember having so many good options before, and all seeming up for it too. We've had better players individually, and some decent first teams, but not the strength in depth or multiple ways of playing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazio have been unable to play their usual game, and have pretty much parked the bus for 75 minutes. We've dominated them and it could have been 7-0 by now had our many chances gone in.
