July 23, 20232 yr Don't know..these ding dong ping pong type of games tell you the teams involved are not winning anything important. Young sides naturally and it is sort of exciting but no great side is part of a game like this.

July 23, 20232 yr In the end just a preseason game. But I e joyed it. As a spectacle seeing all the new players is fun.

July 23, 20232 yr Anyway our style of football is exciting, excellent, breath of fresh air. Pochettino said earlier, today and next game Will Be hard because players will be exhausted. Didn't look like it to be fair. So exciting to see us being decisive, active and well..good.
July 23, 20232 yr Pochettino making us wait to see Nkunku and Jackson together. Suppose we still have 3(?) more games to go on this tour. Happy for Mudryk, exactly the kind of appearance he needed for us. Anyone know why we haven't seen Noni yet?
July 23, 20232 yr If I were Pochettino I'd definitely be tempted to keep Angelo rather than loan him out.
July 23, 20232 yr Well, just about got there in the end. Good workout for the players, much tougher than Wrexham, anyway. Overall thoughts: Obviously hard to take much from friendlies. The issues we've had for years haven't disappeared in a matter of weeks, they are still there, but there are signs of slow progress, which is good. Positives: - Mudryk goal - Will do him the world of good. Looked sharp as well. - Jackson - Nice link-up play, and took his goal well - Angelo - Surprised by this guy, but he looks pretty decent. Could maybe take Ziyech's spot in the squad? Negatives - Sterling - Praying for a bid from Saudi Arabia - Cucurella - Unfortunately still looking poor. Dives in all the time and gets beaten. At fault for the last goal.
