Could 3-5-2 be our new formation? He had been watching Wales a lot at the Euros If it is then that would suggest Arnie's off...

We don't have the squad for 3-5-2. Pieters is not creative enough to play wing back and i'm not sure if Johnson has the legs to play there for a season.

Could have done without another Shawcross scare this early in pre-season And Lecygne inclusion shows how stretched we are for defensive-ish midfielders Crouch and Shawcross have slight back strains. Both should be back in training in the middle of next weeks "Nothing to do with Ryan's old injury and could be back against Preston" claims Mark Bowen. "Starting with 3 at the back, looking to be more flexible" "Lecygne has impressed us, a ferret in the midfield, keeps it tidy" "Sobhi is 99.9% done" "He's very keen to get going with us and he'll be a major part of our future" "Prices seem to have doubled in the last 6 months and it's a complicated summer - but it won't stop us bringing in the right players" Every Oatie poster said prices would double when the new t.v. deal was done. A bit late to be wise now? Plus, every club knows we have to have more home grown player's too! Prices have doubled apart from berahino, whose price has dropped 5m in six months, and we're offering around 7m less than we were 6 months ago.

Wasn't that Eddie kid the one deemed not good enough for Doncaster and sent back early from his loan spell?

Wrongly disallowed goal, ball came off a Burton player and Joselu scores, wrongly called offside

Hughes just getting game time into senior players Probably not but it would solve the problem of having Shaqiri wasted out wide as we could effectively have 2 from Shaq Bojan and Arnie playing behind the striker. As you say though, it's unlikely!

We can not go in to this season with Haugaard as back up

Post by GrahamHyde on Jul 16, 2016 15:06:49 GMT
Haugaard has to be the worst Premier League goalkeeper I have ever seen.
Young lad or not, he's not good enough.

Fuck me why take Butland off if only to prove that we have no discernible options for back up? Another confidence boosting pre season

Suppose it's unlikely Haugaard will play a minute of Prem football behind Butland and Given (although that's what we thought last season)
But it's looking increasingly likely that he's just not up to it.
Wonder if we seriously will think about getting rid and bringing in a safer option (although having said that joining a Prem club as a 3rd choice keeper is distinctly unappetising for anyone with any talent)

When we all know we're short in certain area, i don't mind pre-season going shit. In fact i'm part glad we had that mare at the end of last season. I hate papering over cracks. We are short in several areas, and highlighting exactly where in pre season is ok by me.

I always used to think Tone used to do shit in pre season to get the message over more that he desperately needed players, nudge, nudge mr chairman.
