[Albion] Austria pre-season friendly v FC Liefering - Sat. 13th July



My apologies to the Austrian second division. The standard is far higher than I expected.

Behave yourself. Are you new to this football lark? The first two or three friendlies are always PURELY about fitness and pattern of play and against teams that are up for it.

Just my genuine opinion... rather that than Chris's 9-0-0-0-0-... ...1!!

Alzate good
Solly lots of the ball but little product
Gross slow and many mistakes
Locadia from woeful to decent
Defence a concern and not sure if this football will suit Burn
Surface not ideal to play it out

Our players generally ten yards further up the field (often several of them in our opponents half, all at the same time!) which is good.

Still that strange reluctance to put in a cross first time, though, even though there actually are players up in attacking positions .................................... Montoya - cross? No, 'to you. Solly' - back to you Martin - to you again Solly, Pascal's on his way, maybe he'll cross it - March to Gros - Gros to Montoya - Montoya to March - and ....... finally! ............ a cross!

Damn it! Just remembered we are driving to a cooking competition this afternoon.


Do you think they'll have the Albion on in the pub in Boro?

If you want to read anything into a friendly this early into pre-season after a fitness camp week against a team who will be more up for it because of the prestige opposition then knock yourself out. Sadism, I think it is called.
