I don't think there's any future for Monreal playing centre-back, he's too small and is on the decline. If we got Tierney I wouldn't care too much who we moved on out of Monreal and Kolasinac, but I think the former would be easier to sell (lower fee + wages, likely open to moving back to Spain).

Just watched all the goals.

AMN flat footed with the turn of pace and way too loose against depay to let the cross in but that goal was 90% of chambers. Wtf are you doing marking the space instead of the striker?

Theres 3 of them in a line when chambers drops off away from dembele, ball goes in and he does a half hearted job of jumping back to dembele who literally had nothing to do but jump up and let the ball bounce off his head.

Wtf is mustafi doing? The pass looked offside but ffs why are you running behind the ball carrier with your arm raised so you cant full sprint?

AMN from RB position had to cover more ground than mustafi that was begging for the whistle and staring at the lino more than the player ahead of him.

Ffs this is ridiculous.

One injury or suspension and those two are the CBs.

We need a permanent CB starter this summer.

its righg to give props to Nacho and also right to say he is over the hill/past it and now more of a liability...a minus player.

chambers has alwasy been a minus player and he showed it again today. stay on their #9 ..wqcthing teh ball is for pubbers.

2nd lyon goal clear offsides.

reissnelson lively. ceballos looks good. matrtianlli ok. 2nd game nketiah is missing sitters.

willock looks good. auba sharp.

my buddy is visiting and he was laughing at how i was slaughtering xhaka. slow one foited dimwitted red card big error waiting to happen. GTF off my team, please. same fro mustafi of course.

Chambers sucked but he's new to the team and new to Emery. Perhaps he's getting used to new tactics so I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt.

It's a pre-season friendly so complaining that players are at 80% that's hardly a surprise ... worryingly the defence and midfield still seem to be playing in two different time zones, defending is a team game, the back five simply can't do it alone. Up front we could easily have had a few more but we definitely need a better back-up, lose Auba or Laca for a few weeks and right now we'd be fecked, Pepe is therefore a must sign. This season looks like one where as always we will need to score more than we concede, obvious but also an issue because we will concede a bundle ... at least it will be good to watch ....

I was at the game and my biggest issue was Moss he couldn't even cover the pitch he was that unfit.

douzi still has the habit of trying to hold off a defender and being dispossesed from behind and falling over looking for a foul...
