Was watching the champions of Europe vs Cardiff in glorious UHD on our new TV and switched over to the YouTube app for this friendly and the picture quality was awful. Now watching our YouTube channel on an IPad which is much clearer.

Both devices using WiFi and we have FTTH at 360 so not sure why the app is shit on the tv but fine via the IPad
It's fine here.:)

According to the you tube subtitles, 'Duck has just tinged one over the top for well beck', and then a little later we 'marched off to gross gross'.

Looking good!

Pedro is quality. He's going to score a hat full.
Strong, quick feet, aware of other players positions and runs, looks a real handful.

Look it’s been a bit pish but I have faith that the players will get up to speed and we’ll look better once the team gel a bit.
Nice to see a resurrection of one of the grand old stalwart close season sayings that seems to have fallen a bit out of favour nowadays.

Time To Gel :clap:

Can I just give a shout out to the singing section there today. Some slightly out of sync clapping but no singing at a million miles per hour, nice and slow, even a count in with some songs.
Well played.

As others have said, totally different formation this, and closer to older RDZ formations where RB pushes into midfield or even closer to a number ten, wingers push even wider, three at the back. Certainly not as pretty but we clearly need a plan b so worth trying it out now. No sign of double pivot, nowhere near as narrow in the middle. Much bigger gaps between CM and CB..much cruder really. Intriguing.

Can we get Undav back?
Looks like the only finisher we had. Some poor attempts today.

I see from earlier posts that their goal was from some comical keeping. But I assume that they must have been in our half at some time for this to happen? Not much sign of that since I've been watching!

To be fair, aside from the early flap that nearly let Welbeck score (saved only by the extra chunky woodwork we seemingly have installed just to frustrate Danny), their keeper has looked pretty sharp.
