Negan Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 Eisa just signed for them as well, imagine he'll be up for it. Should be a good test for the defence today, assuming MK still play like they used to when we last played them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviestevieneville Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 I don’t normally do friendlies under normal circumstances , but. I’m not taking the moral high ground here I promise as I’m not like that. However , there are many of us who are season ticket holders & have continued to put our hands in our pockets over the last year or so , albeit getting refunds . Can’t the club show the game for less than a tenner. I just won’t watch in principal . A fiver , I’d probably pay but ten ******* quid ! Getting fleeced imo.

Unan Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 No way I’ll be watching it for a tenner. I wouldn’t if it was an ideal stream.. poor commentary, poor quality stream, poor stability of it, poor playing quality(a bit harsh, it is a friendly), poor support when it doesn’t work. No issues with Nige and the playing side of things though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King O'Dowda Palmer Wells That could well be the starting line up in 14 days time. They need to be getting minutes as a unit even if its just for the first 45. I've watched both friendlies so far and for large parts there were echos of last season - no real pattern of play. Its concerning and anything less than a win today will see the concerns of most City fans step up a gear IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And surely we’ll need more pace and energy in midfield - Williams if he’s fit, with King on the bench, or maybe 4-1-3-2: Bentley Simpson Kalas Atkinson Dasilva James Weimann Palmer O’Dowda Martin Wells Not enough defensive cover there?

shelts Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 I bought my three game deal and just like watching my team regardless of it being a friendly and nothing on it . It’s been very nice to get aquatinted with the team and new boys . Some of the footballs been tidy enough. Some players need to show Nige something different .

Agree we have to fit massengo in somewhere. So much potential there, highest ceiling in the squad and needs to get his starts this season, hopefully his suspected knock isn't too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The line up is largely irrelevant. It’s a training game ffs……..………The purpose is to enhance the players fitness against unfamiliar opponents and a perfect opportunity for Nige and his coaches to assess how the squad are developing. Thats why there are different line ups in each half. I really don’t get why some are getting bewildered by Martins absence. It’s no big deal.

wendyredredrobin Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 I just won't pay a penny to watch frendlies, whether live or on TV.

As I said though. Many of us have backed the club financially paying for games we were never going to see . They know they got season holders money every year because it’s in the blood . It’s also only the die hards that’s going to watch friendlies. Difficult for the club yes , but they’re charging £10 for a glorified training session .
