Chance of silverware and looks like we've blown it.

Mostly good performance, sometimes brilliant.

I hope Monchi and Emery have seen that Watkins is just too flakey to be our only out-and-out senior striker.

Surely you’re trolling at this point?

Plenty of positives, we look like we’re going to be a proper outfit this season.

The attack looks promising. The defence won’t be this bad for any team on tour. We have some decent games left before Newcastle and hopefully a few players to make us better

We played some lovely football in the first half before all the changes, I can't wait for the season to start. McGinns runs into space were key to how we cut through Brentford, with an onfire Watkins we would have won that.

Better first half. 2nd, a bit disjointed and allowed Brentford back into it.

Bring in Harry Kane and we'll win games like that 6-2.

Little disappointed in the end but, as is usual with any team, the flow goes out of the game when so many changes are made.
