Looking forward to this one. The pre-season friendlies have been unusually watchable so far. With players seeking to impress a new manager and a coach experimenting with formations they have been interesting to watch. Valencia will provide a different type of opposition so will be interesting to see how we approach this one.

Also it's a good excuse to indulge in more Bruno appreciation and who doesn't want to be a part of that.

I wonder how Potter will treat this one? Will he want more familiarity amongst his strongest 11 or will he look to get more minutes for those who didn't get a run out on Saturday.

me neither, but nowadays it's a rare opportunity for all 3 of us as a family to be able to go to a game together and there is an elevated state of curiosity, as well as decent opposition, and the weather looks good.

TBH we played the second half of last season like they were friendlies, so tomorrow could be a treat.

I would expect the former, I reckon the starting XI tomorrow night will be pretty close to the lineup at Watford as he looks to further bed his system in. Then we'll see a smattering of changes over the course of the 2nd half. Should be interesting.

Looking forward to it here - by a huge quirk of fate, junior has got his graduation tomorrow, along with one of his Uni flatmates who happens to be from Valencia and a big fan, so we're all going together.....................ceremony in the morning, nice lunch then off to the game later :)

Every seat will have a free BRUNO mask on it tomorrow folks. Tremendous.

Bruno will feel like John Malkovich.

Well there was sort of as they cocked it up and finished the stream early with ten mins to go as far as I remember.
[MENTION=88]Bob![/MENTION] As with all of our "high-profile" friendly games, there will be a stream somewhere.

If the club aren't streaming directly, it's worth having a look at reddit for it...
