A consistently healthy Patrick Bamford make LUFC a much better side. That probably goes without saying. But if he gets healthy and on a run of form it's a game changer...

If right, always good to start pre-season with a win. Better so far than last year :oops:

I think it is safe to say that KP and Raphinha were dragging us down.

From StokeonTrentlive

Preparations picking up
Stoke have returned to Clayton Wood to start pre-season training this week and will have a behind closed doors friendly against a Premier League team at the training ground on July 2.

O’Neill takes his squad to Ireland for a week-long training camp the following Monday, capped with a friendly at Cork City on Saturday, July 9 (5pm). There are other friendlies in the diary at Bristol Rovers and Accrington Stanley and a couple more are expected to be announced soon.

We must have been the 'Premier League team'

That's only true in a Bert team Paul.

PB is not that good, you seen much of him pre Bert days ?

PB had a chance to play for England, 100% those days are gone now, like a few others, all downhill from here with no Bert guidance.

Will be actually v interesting to see what big Jesse does with him.

I hope we don't make the same mistake of relying on Bamford as our sole striker. We definitely have to bring another one in, otherwise we'll be fucked again.

Too true, can't rely on putting a kid on to keep rescuing us either.
