I've only watched the second half

I have to say I'm not very impressed. I'm not sure we've looked better than them. Amavi and Sinclair look quite good. Bacuna has never looked good in midfield. Gil is injured. Gabby has been poor. Gardner was good for five minutes and then I don't think I noticed him

Could really do with Gil and grealish getting fit. But we really need more quality

What happened to the "new and improved" thing?

It's as new and improved as the bloody team.

Gabby looks out of his depth at this level.

The players are never asked to go all out in friendlies and asked to do new things they might not be overly familiar with. I watched Man U vs Club America the other night and they looked really poor. I would have thought if it meant anything they'd have won handily.
