Bloody hell - this is getting brutal now LOL

Absolutely dreadful start for Maresca in these first two pre-season fixtures ...

Awful

Oh well, more of the same this season then. Defense just aren’t it and this idea to play Sanchez as a Sweeper is going to make us even leakier.

This lot make Chelsea circa ‘78 look good

Finnish keepers at both ends. I kinda like it.

Sack this c**t now

Ok we now have let in the same amount of goals as the Champions. That's still something...

BTW did any of you spend 4.99 to watch this?

I nearly bought a $150 ticket and drove 6 hours down from Canada. Luckily we have City, RM and Inter to come.

We’re defending like 9 man Spurs.

If he makes it to season two I will be shocked. We will be battling for 10th again 

Absolutely as expected. A load of old sh*t. Not a master tactician, not a high possession style of football. Nope. A team of mediocre players, with more cheap mediocre players on the way and a manager who has such a masterplan that he wants to play with no defenders.

Total sh*t.

Poch in!

Can’t believe I spent £5 on this sh*te not again

Can we just go back to fullbacks playing fullback? 

This is so bad it’s actually entertaining. I like it. Much better than being a bit bad and having false hope.

The last 4-0 preseason loss?

Tuchel against Arsenal.

It's a good thing when you think about it.

Helps us to set realistic expectations for the season. 

Cant wait to here what rubbish the clown comes out with

Sadly true! 

They’re all over the place. It’s utter chaos at the back. No midfield. And finishing makes Sunday League look good 

Difficult to be critical as pre season game 2 vs a much better prepared team, but what a load of old bollox it’s been today mostly 😅

You are right, Celtics need to score again so we can out do that one.

I think what's frustrating is how we've gone from one completely different style of football back to another, so we'll be waiting again for it all to gel. 

Preseason can be pretty meaningless, so I'm not just saying this based on two rubbish results, I do think we're in for a difficult season again unfortunately.
