4 - 0 isn't an easy score to take but they will have been worked harder than any other team in pre-season. 10 days now to recover, taper and put the emphasis onto quality into the scum game.
If we get a result there this game is easily forgotten.
Of course he did mate...its called leadership... he will have it sorted...remember the last 11 games of last season only one team outscored us and it wasnt scum (or Citeh)

Fine to buy young players to improve even though they will prob never get near the starting 11 but you have to recruit for the first team. We all love the current squad but we have to have depth and competition, we are threadbare for a premier league squad. Hopefully got signings, O’Brien aside lined up and we just haven’t signed any one yet as been lowballing offers all summer - time to pay up radz or all you plans could be at risk.

We lost 3-0 to Stoke last year and everyone had a meltdown then. Who cares about pre-season friendlies?
Oh come on we were totally outclassed tonight after being battered by Ajax juniors this afternoon, we were doing our best but our best was nowhere near good enough.
These are the type of games we'll have to compete & cope with if we have any European ambitions.
Bielsa wasn't happy tonight so why should our fans be content with extremely average performances.

Costa lacks the confidience, looks nervous and sloppy.
Rodrigo is the biggest disappointment imo, he just runs around on the field like a headless chicken. I worry he really dosen’t know his role in the team, and where is his pace gone?

At least we have a desire to win & not be shot down by the enemy.
You really dont get it do you.. so dissapointing Leon...you are the one SAYING we will be beat before they even take the field!... What gives you the right to speak for "all the fans" as you put it...some accept what pre season is all about, you it appears base everything on it .

I'm sure he will Smudge when he's got his best XI to call on.
That was a horrible watch tonight even though we were playing a class team
