Coventry City v Everton, Tues 30th July, 7.45pm

[Victus]

The players look cabbaged and I just want to say this 'gaffers day' is stupid and just seems a bit pointless and stuff?

How the hell are we going to sell any of these for actual money

True but don't know whether to laugh or cry.

 

[Daytripper]

Aye. Generally championship teams are further ahead of preseason.

I remember we were spanking teams in preseason under Silva. Didn't do us any favours once the season started.

True and under Walter Smith too, remember Nyarko being labelled the new Viera etc

Still, you want to see some sort of game plan or dare I say philosophy, there isn’t one. We look unprepared.

At the very least some promise things have improved. Shouldn’t be getting beat at Salford or Coventry in that manner even in a warm up.

 

[NeilMorepies]

Don’t know what you lot are complaining about. We’ve looked great, really dangerous every time we’ve got forward. We’ve put a good shift in, been sharp in front of goal, and our new light blue away strip looks pretty good.

How the hell are we going to sell any of these for actual money

We can't...

Pay Keane and Holgate 60% of the last year of their contracts and tell them to F off.

 

[The Penalty Box Dancer]

That pre-season of 2014/15 was also horrific. Didn't win a single game. Everyone said it didn't matter, but we didn't have a good season following that despite finishing 11th.

 

[JJK]

Pre-season or not this is dreadful. Can’t defend and no attacking play at all. Shocking.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Friendly or not, loosing 3-0 to Coventry will not be a good look for those inside and outside the club.

I'm fairly certain that literally no one will ultimately be arsed mate

 

[Vintage]

The actual fume on here when Friedkin’s Roma beat us 9-0.

Probably not as bad as when Preston beat us by 10

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Hows it not? Sure the players have stunk but it's 80 mins and the only change he made was NDiaye who was decent for Doucs who's not been anywhere near as dynamic.

It's like watching Southgate sometimes, not wanting to change things out of fear that it might affect the game. Grow a pair

It's frigging friendly you plonker not FA cup semi.

Pull yourself together, Jesus wept.

 

[JohnRoss23]

Just now firing up the DVR, no spoilers! Have a feeling we’ve made plenty of progress since our last showing. I’ll see you haters in 2 hours!

Today isn’t what they are working towards.

 

[Vortexgaz]

We won't be conceding those goals with Jordon, Myko, Tarks/O'Brien, Jarred at the back sure but our players need to manage the game better, manage their energy levels better

We won’t be scoring any aswell always trying to snatch a win from a set pice that’s all we are

We say this now but it's about long-term fitness. We were a fit side last season overall.

Too old fashioned. Doubt the best teams in the world do a ‘gaffers day’. All to make the manager look hard and old school.
