Exactly

Not sure anyone has though

We've been landed with some absolute shite by a succession of managers, haven't we?

Well we have been outplayed but Man Utd havent really done an awful lot either. Penalty a gift from a keeper we have seen is suspect and less than commanding in the area. 
Disappointing than Bowen and Fullkrug have no service. Wan Bissaka our best player. 
We lack sharpness and cohesion. Midfield is slow and lacking invention.

It's disturbing that we're three weeks away from the start of the season and we haven't been linked with anyone that fixes our midfield problems. 
Agree. It’s astonishing. I’ve no doubt that potter and Macauley have identified players that would help out but getting Sullivan to buy them is going to be the problem seen as he’d apparently rather chase his own targets and help out his mates. 
 
 
 
 
I'm not convinced Potter and his boyfriend have a clue what they're doing. Well out of their depth.

Dismal half of football that. Exactly as clueless as we were at the end of last season. I want to see a different midfield second half and for Potter to stop wasting Bowen up top, the hapless cսnt. 

Gonna be a long old season by the looks of it.

What I’ve learnt so far is we are still shit, and Sky are as biased as usual. Same as it always was.

Fucking hell, what a comeback from one of the wet cardboard army. Fuck off you fairy. Look at the state of this game already, we're employing a system that plays out best player by a country mile out of position for fucks sake. Let's count how often we play the ball around at the back and then down the wing and then lose it shall we? I reckon we've done that ten times already. Twenty seven diabolical minutes in and we've not had an attack.

But it's alright it's only pre season. Three weeks we'll be shit hot yeah? Fucking idiot.

Same as last season. We have no clue on how to build an attack. Lots of passing in unthreatening areas. This guys had 7 months to work out how to do this.

I’m sure Potter knows what we need but rather than blame him why don’t you blame the owner who won’t buy the players we need. 
If Potter ain't getting what he needs then he should jack it in. But he won't because nobody else would employ the cսnt. He's the human equivalent of wet cardboard.

I heard a rumour that Fulkrug is playing in this game. Must be in the witness protection scheme or something.

Result doesn't matter in this but we really ought to be looking more competent than this. We could easily be 3 or 4 down here. Dismal Potterball.

We need midfielders to start being competitive. Instead of this Sullivan is trying to sign a geriatric crocked striker. Any manager we have will face exactly the same problems when trying to build a functioning team. It wouldn’t even matter if we binned potter off. We’d still have exactly the same mess of a wonky lopsided inadequate squad while he focuses on sucking off his agent mates rather than addressing the needs of his team.

I know it's only a pre season friendly but it's not good to watch. I think I'll go to bed.

First 20 odd minutes hasn’t looked great, but it’s not an indication of anything to come.

Areola is two-bob though, and aside from the worlds worst haircut, his decision making is dodgy, which was compounded how we conceded that penalty. Dick.
