Someone needs to fizz the fkin thing between the lines

Looking rusty. Not a big surprise there.

Really liking the link-up play between Rooney, Klaassen and Gueye though.

Just had to put Twitter down. It's in meltdown already. Any better in here? For what it's worth, yes we've been slow, but there's been good movement up front. Just need to wake up- can't believe people thought we'd walk this?

4th game into preseason I don't know what people are expecting, new signings haven't had time to gel into the team, we're still working on fitness, still waiting to sign some more players.

We're not losing the match, I'm sure we'll get a goal or 2 in second hand.

Goodison looks pretty empty though which is surprising

Supposedly because of maintenance mate, the seats that were available have all sold out.

BRING SANDRO ON

That's what Rooney wants to do but can't cause he's the 9. It will never ever work.

 

[DownOnTheUpside]

LOL, team in first competitive match, play badly shocker.

Anything to score points eh Divek?

the thing is, they haven't suddenly been told 'by the way lads, first game 27th' we've known this game was coming, we know we have to win it

no excuse for turning up half cocked

 

[Blues Harp]

The draw was in Dublin. At Goodison we won 1-0...

Old gits memory strikes again...it was a close run home win though..perhaps 1-0 will do tonight ? ta for the clarification mr V

 

[Bluerover]

The draw was in Dublin. At Goodison we won 1-0...

......and UCD nearly scored at GP while it was 0-0. That away goal would probably have finished us as we struggled to get the one.

 

[Ludlow st]

ground, team, and supporters looking tired.
to be out sung by maybe 100 of them embarrassing,
to be o-o at halftime poor
after supporting the blues for over 60 years what has happened to our home end fans they seem bored.
oh well come on you blues and please lets have some passion from everybody.
10 to ev

we are a reasonable bunch in here

everyone knows this is just a fitness booster and once they tire in the second half we will cruise to a comfortable 2-0 win

 

[DownOnTheUpside]

no changes....

 

[ToffeeDevil]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO CHANGES

Rooney is going to be such a sideshow distraction this season. The media obsessing over him and fans trying to find excuses for his underperforming. He is so far past it. Awful signing.

Klaassen looked good albeit slow as... he needs pace around him.
